Carr Road Walthamstow , E17 5ER

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

The period proportions and light-filled rooms of this apartment would make for a relaxed lifestyle, with a perfect combination of fresh, simple contemporary décor and vintage features. Entering the property through your own internal front door, you come straight into an elegant hallway with tongue and groove walls and a neatly concealed understairs cupboard. The spacious front living room has a large bay window, and a red feature wall adds character.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully designed to maximise the sense of space and the amount of worktop available, with fitted floor cabinets, open shelving, and a breakfast bar. There’s excellent light from a wall of windows and a door provides access to the paved terrace that wraps around the rear of the property. The focal point of the double bedroom is an original cast-iron fireplace. There’s plenty of space for a large double bed as well as bedroom furniture, and there’s also a view of the garden.

The bathroom and connected WC are fully tiled. The bathroom has a bath with a mixer shower, a freestanding washbasin, and a door to the WC. Both rooms have windows that provide great light and ventilation. Pale wood laminate flooring runs throughout the property, apart from the bathroom, unifying the space and reflecting the excellent natural light. The property is double glazed and has gas central heating. The low-maintenance garden is mainly gravelled, with a paved central section making it suitable for year-round use. Adjacent trees provide a pleasant green perimeter.
