Chestnut Avenue North, Walthamstow, London, E17

Beautifully presented and carefully refurbished throughout, this exceptional four-bedroom, three-bathroom Victorian home offers approximately 1,549 sq. ft. of stylish and thoughtfully designed accommodation, with an additional substantial outbuilding to the rear. Finished with real attention to detail, the house combines the proportions and character of a period property with a sophisticated contemporary finish. The ground floor opens with an impressive bay-fronted reception room, extending to over 22ft and creating a wonderfully generous space for relaxing and entertaining. Double-glazed sash windows, elegant wall panelling, herringbone wood flooring, decorative cornicing and Victorian-style column radiators give the room a refined feel, while the soft neutral palette allows the original character of the house to shine. To the rear, the extended kitchen and dining room is the real heart of the home. Stretching over 23ft, this bright open-plan space has been beautifully designed for modern family life, with a large central island, sleek cabinetry, integrated appliances and contrasting black fittings. An impressive run of skylights floods the room with natural light, while wide glazed doors open directly onto the garden, creating an effortless connection between inside and out. A ground-floor WC completes this level. Upstairs, the bedrooms are arranged across two further floors. The first floor provides two generous double bedrooms, including a superb principal bedroom with bespoke fitted wardrobes, together with two beautifully finished bathrooms. The larger family bathroom is particularly striking, with stone-effect finishes, brushed brass fittings, a freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower. The second floor provides two further bedrooms, offering plenty of flexibility for children, guests or home working, alongside useful eaves storage and an additional shower room. With three beautifully appointed bathrooms in total, the layout works particularly well for busy family life. Outside, the rear garden extends to approximately 40ft and has been landscaped to provide a smart combination of lawn, paved entertaining space and contemporary timber screening. At the far end sits a fantastic 148 sq. ft. outbuilding, complete with its own kitchenette. This is an incredibly versatile addition and would make an excellent home office, studio, gym or entertaining space.

There’s just as much to enjoy beyond the front door. Wood Street is close by, with its wonderfully eclectic collection of independent favourites including Wood Street Bear and the award-winning Chocolatine bakery, while Ravenswood Industrial Estate is home to local institutions including God’s Own Junkyard, Pillars Brewery and Mother’s Ruin. Wander towards Walthamstow Village and you’ll pass landmarks such as St Mary’s Churchyard and Ancient House, along with popular neighbourhood pubs including the Nags Head and the Castle. For commuters, Wood Street station provides convenient Overground connections towards Liverpool Street, while Walthamstow Central offers both Victoria line and Overground services. Soho Theatre Walthamstow, Forest Cinema, Walthamstow Market and the shopping centre are all within easy reach, while families are well served by a strong selection of local schools. Green space is equally plentiful, with Lloyd Park and the William Morris Gallery, Fellowship Square and the leafy surroundings of Epping Forest at Hollow Ponds all nearby.
