Grove Road Walthamstow , E17 9BN

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You’ll love the sense of space that this ground floor home provides. You’re set up well with the bright front reception room, while the adjoining kitchen, utility and rear reception will serve you well, especially if you fancy getting creative with the design and taking on a project.

The double bedroom is a good size, as is the bathroom, while the south-facing rear garden will be a joy to sit in when the sun is shining, especially considering the existing mix of mature foliage.

As for the area, Walthamstow Village is packed with ancient history, as well as an eclectic mix of amenities which draw visitors from all corners of London at the weekend. Grab a coffee and toastie from the excellent Hucks, handily located a few metres down on your very own road.

While Orford Road is the main hub, you’ll find the wider area potted with brilliant amenities, such as authentic sushi takeaway Ohba Leaf Kitchen (also on Grove Road), while the ultra-friendly Castle gastro-pub (which was voted runner-up for best Sunday lunch 2019 by The Observer) is even closer. Poke bowl specialists Peeld is another great lunch option, while store-come-restaurant Eat 17 is sure to become another regular haunt.

WHAT ELSE?
- Head to Walthamstow Central for Europe’s longest market which runs along Walthamstow High Street and the convenient chains found in the 17&Central shopping centre, which has a fantastic food court operated by CRATE (think eclectic street food in a dynamic box park environment). Hoe Street also has some fantastic amenities, with the Soho Theatre Walthamstow set to open there soon.
- You’re also only a few minutes on foot from the Ravenswood Industrial Estate, which is home to the ever-popular God’s Own Junkyard, as well as breweries Wildcard Brewery Tap, Pillars Brewery, Trap, plus gin palace Mother’s Ruin.
- Despite being in such a cosmopolitan hub, you’re surrounded by excellent green space; Lloyd Park, which houses the William Morris Gallery, is 15 minutes north, the recently launched Fellowship Square, with its impressive fountains, is in the same area, while Hollow Ponds, at the cusp of Epping Forest, is around 15 minutes east.
