IF YOU LIVED HERE…

With 443 square feet of internal space to spread out in, this is a home to enjoy from the very beginning. Thanks to the natural light and neutral decor, the reception room has a bright yet warm feel, with a fire surround providing a natural focal point. The kitchen has plenty of storage, along with smart units and contemporary appliances.

The two bedrooms share the same neutral colour palette, with soft carpeting underfoot, while the bathroom is smart and modern. To the rear, there’s a garden, which could be put to practical use for bike storage or keeping outdoor essentials tucked away.

As for the area beyond, Highams Park is your nearest station, just over a mile away. From here, you can nip into Liverpool Street on the Weaver Overground in around 25 minutes. On the way to the station, you’ll find some excellent local spots, including Vino Tap, The Stag & Lantern Micropub and Yaz, alongside supermarkets and familiar high-street names when you need to stock up on essentials.

You also have the convenient option of hopping on a bus to Walthamstow Central. As well as excellent transport connections, including the Victoria line, you’ll find a fantastic choice of independent eateries, plus the Soho Theatre.

And then there’s the greenery. The neighbourhood sits right on the cusp of the whopping Epping Forest, while Highams Park itself is rather special, with its lake and landscaped gardens. Memorial Park is even closer, giving you another lovely spot for a stroll, a run or simply some fresh air.
