a word from the owner...

"The property is in a wide tree lined street. The neigbours are very friendly. Community music events sprung up during lockdown and have continued. Lovely forest walks are accessible from behind Bisterne Avenue and Hollow Ponds is a short walk away. The local church, St Peter in the Forest, which has recently been beautifully refubished with lottery funding, has a cafe and offers lots of different activities for children and adults both in the church and in Peterhouse, the church hall. Wood street is a short walk away with cafe's, shops etc and Walthamstow Village is about 15 minutes walk with restaurants, bars and shops. In between is gods own junkyard, various breweries and a gin palace! Wood Street station is also a short walk away and takes 20 minutes to Liverpool Street and is one stop from Walthamstow Central, where you can connect to the Victoria Line."

Our Local Guide:
Walthamstow

Bisterne Avenue, Walthamstow — Stow Brothers

Situated on the edge of spacious Epping Forest, but every inch urban London, Walthamstow is one of those rare locations where you can have your (artisan) cake and eat it too. 

Built from proper East End roots, the rapidly expanding community has transformed the area into a buzzy, creative hub and destination in its own right, making Walthamstow’s close proximity to central London less relevant than it perhaps once was (although if you must leave, it’s only a short hop on the Victoria line or London Overground). In fact, these days you’re more likely to see daytrippers coming into the area, keen to sample its varied offerings of food, drink, culture and green space. However, lucky locals get the added benefit of being part of a genuinely cheery community – and amongst the first to know about that latest hot new opening.

Features + Perks

Transport links

With Victoria line trains now running every 100 seconds, Walthamstow sits at the top of the second most frequent line IN THE WORLD. On it you can travel to Oxford Circus in just 19 mins (and always get a seat). Or get to Liverpool Street in 18 mins on the Overground.

Green open spaces

Waltham Forest has more green space than any other borough north of the Thames. We’ve got the sprawling Marshes, the Ponds and the Forest, not to mention dog and family-friendly parks scattered with playgrounds, outdoor gyms and picnic spots.

Family fun

There’s a reason families flock to Walthamstow - we’re spoilt for choice when it comes to fun kids’ activities, but Fellowship Square might be the icing on the cake with its all-singing, all-dancing splashtastic fountain.

Schools

Walthamstow Primaries with the highest Ofsted rating include Barclay, St Mary’s CofE and South Grove, while secondaries Frederick Bremer, Walthamstow Academy are ‘good’, and Walthamstow School for Girls ‘outstanding’. Top marks, Walthamstow schools.

Art & Culture

Waltham Forest was the first ever Mayor’s London Borough of Culture in 2019, which regenerated the local creative community. But Walthamstow has actually nurtured a lively arts scene for decades, with international names such as Grayson Perry and Peter Blake having worked on their craft here.
