A WORD FROM THE OWNERS......

"We have loved living in this beautiful part of Walthamstow Village for the past eight years. Our small offshoot of Orford Road is a special community of six houses, with lovely neighbours who have lived here for decades. We’re lucky enough not to be overlooked at the front of the house; watching the squirrels play in the trees whilst drinking a cup of tea in bed is a nice way to start the day. At the back we are hardly overlooked either, with views of the Ancient House over our fence and a mature hedge and tree providing natural privacy. Our garden backs onto the wildflower meadow which looks beautiful come spring. From the back bedroom you can see St Mary's Church. Over the road is the brilliant Nags Head, which is convenient for a drink or a pizza, God’s Own Junkyard and Wild Card Brewery are a stone’s throw away, and the famous amenities of Orford Road, such as Froth & Rind and Eat 17, are two minutes around the corner. Parking is easy, with a permit spot directly opposite the house, which is helpful with young kids. The tube and overground at Walthamstow Central are approx 6 minutes walk away. We love our house, our neighbours and the area, and know our buyers will too.”
