If you lived here...
The hallway is introduced with original stained-glass panels above and within the front door, their colourful detail casting a soft light and highlighting the home’s period charm. A traditional staircase with turned balusters and detailed panelling adds character, with opportunity for refreshment.

Bright and inviting, the front reception features a bay window drawing in natural light across polished timber flooring. An ornate fireplace with decorative inlays forms a striking focal point, enhanced by delicate cornicing and an intricate ceiling rose.

The kitchen, dining area and rear reception are linked in an open arrangement, creating a generous sense of flow. Contemporary cabinetry and tiled splashbacks define the kitchen, with space for gatherings in the dining area. Beyond, the rear reception opens onto the garden, and with scope for reconfiguration (STPP), the whole space could be transformed into a light-filled living area that makes the most of the outlook.

Facing south-west, the garden extends from a paved terrace to a lawn framed by mature trees and fencing. It offers privacy, scope for landscaping and the chance to create a vibrant extension of the home, while a garden WC with storage adds useful flexibility. A separate cellar lies beneath the ground floor, providing additional space.

Upstairs, the landing continues the period feel with its original balustrade and leads to three bedrooms and the bathroom. Loft access here presents further scope for extension (STPP). The front bedroom is generously sized with a wide bay window, the second overlooks the garden, while the third works well as a nursery, office or guest room. A family bathroom completes this level, with bath and separate shower, offering scope for updating.

A word from the expert...

“I love living in Walthamstow – it’s got such a great mix of things going on. Saturdays are my favourite, with the market in Lloyd Park full of fresh food, handmade bits, and plenty of friendly faces. The new Soho Theatre has brought amazing shows right to our doorstep, and if I fancy a pint, the Blackhorse Beer Mile breweries are perfect for a wander. When I need some fresh air, the Walthamstow Wetlands are just a short stroll away – all that greenery makes you completely forget you’re in London. Plus, with brilliant transport links, it’s so easy to hop on the Tube or Overground and be in Central London in no time at all.”
