Chestnut Avenue South Walthamstow , E17 9EJ

IF YOU LIVED HERE...

You'll be stretching out in your immaculate and generous, twenty four foot deep through lounge, all bright and airy thanks to that large bay window, rear patio doors and the high ceilings of the period. Loveable original details include a perfectly preserved ceiling rose and a striking ebony hearth and mantel. Head to the rear and blonde engineered hardwood gives way to dark slate tiling as you step into the kitchen/diner.

There's a full 175 square feet of space here, with twin flanks of white cabinets and timber worktops leading to the bright, generous dining area. You have more patio doors at the end here, ushering in still more natural light and offering a second access point to your enviable rear garden. Out here there's a lush and lengthy lawn, accompanied by colourful foliage and all nicely secluded by screening greenery.

Upstairs now, where your first three bedrooms are all solid doubles ranging from ninety to 180 square feet, with artfully restored original floorboards underfoot in the substantial principal sleeper, and floods of natural light throughout. The smartly finished family bathroom completes the storey, while upstairs your skylit, twenty eight foot deep penthouse suite features a gorgeous en suite shower room, subtly separated by glass bricks. Complete with floor to ceiling window overlooking the garden, it's a wonderful finale.

Among the many, many highlights on your doorstep is the open nature of Epping Forest and Hollow Ponds, just five minutes around the corner. Here you can wander the woodlands or hire row boats. It's the best way we know to escape city life. On the other hand, our sought after enclave of Walthamstow Village is jut ten minutes in the other direction, for a great range of independent bars, restaurants and gastropubs.
