a word from the owner..
"We moved here just before our children were born and this as been a much loved family home for all of us over the past ten years. The house's open plan layout and the garden have been brilliant for our growing family. The local shops and services down on Wood Street are a real lifeline too, we now have several specialty coffee shops, sourdough bakeries as well as fresh fruit and vegetables from the Turkish grocers. We're also grateful to have a local library, post office, chemist and a garden centre so close to hand. We didn’t realise it at the time, but this street is also ideally located for school catchments and nurseries. There’s the excellent Wood Street Nursery, which our boys loved, and for primary schools there is Henry Maynard, Woodside and St Mary’s. For secondary education, there’s Leytonstone, Frederick Bremer and the local girls’ school. When our children were smaller we felt incredibly lucky to have the local Bisterne Avenue playground further up Fyfield Road and the community garden on Greenway Avenue, which are great places for parents with toddlers to meet and spend time together. We also discovered a range of activities for young children, such as Bongalong and baby signing classes and local activities at the Cricket, tennis and squash club around the corner, which also hosts a great local fireworks on Bonfire night. You're also only a short walk from Walthamstow village, whilst a little further afield you have skateboarding at Lloyd Park, the brilliant pool and Spa at the Feel Good Centre, the Forest cinema and the new Soho Theatre which hosts wonderful comedy nights and concerts. One of the biggest benefits of living here is the easy walking access to the forest, which became a daily routine even before working from home. You can walk on to Highams Park, Wanstead or Woodford, or loop around Forest School. On workdays, the Weaver line is excellent, fast, clean and with great connections to the City and Victoria line. "

Our Local Guide:
Walthamstow
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.
