2 Bedroom

This peaceful ground floor Victorian flat offers a calm and comfortable retreat, thoughtfully arranged to create a real sense of ease. With two generously sized bedrooms and a softly lit living space, it feels quietly inviting — a place where you can truly unwind. At the rear, a private garden extends the feeling of calm outdoors, offering a lovely setting for slow breakfasts, reading in the sun, or evenings shared with friends. The property is offered chain-free and will come with a brand new lease on completion. St James Street Station is just a short walk away, providing swift connections into central London, while the surrounding area offers green space, independent cafés, and a strong sense of community.

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

At the front of the home, the reception room is a light and airy space, with a bay window that draws in the afternoon sun. Warm-toned engineered wood flooring runs underfoot, complementing soft, stone-coloured walls and continuing through much of the home to create a calm and cohesive feel. High ceilings add to the sense of openness, while the gentle palette and considered finishes make it a space that feels both grounded and uplifting.
Both bedrooms are well-proportioned and overlook the private garden to the east, welcoming soft morning light. The same flooring continues here, tying the rooms together with a warm, natural flow. Each room comfortably fits a double bed and additional furniture, creating restful spaces that invite you to slow down.

The centrally placed bathroom is simple and well cared for, with a full-size bath and overhead shower. Soft tones and a window for light and ventilation keep the space feeling fresh and uncluttered.

The galley kitchen is well-organised and functional, with in-built appliances and overhead cabinetry. A glazed door opens to the private garden, letting in natural light and connecting the indoors with the tranquil outdoor setting.

The garden itself is a beautifully landscaped retreat, inspired by Japanese design. White gravel, light paving, and stepping stones lead to a sunlit corner at the far end — ideal for quiet afternoons. Occasional shrubs and a mature tree add softness, creating a low-maintenance space that feels serene and carefully balanced.

Leyton Jubilee Park is just a 14-minute walk away, offering open space for weekend strolls, morning runs, or a bit of fresh air. The immediate area has plenty of pubs and dining spots, while Walthamstow Village, slightly further afield, offers a more tucked-away feel with independent shops, cafés, and a slower rhythm. The Village Pub is a much-loved local hangout, with garden seating, a relaxed atmosphere, and a great Sunday roast.
For a deeper escape into nature, Walthamstow Wetlands offers peaceful trails, wide skies, and a chance to reconnect with the outdoors.

WHAT ELSE?
St James Street Station is around a 15-minute walk away, offering quick and direct connections into central London via the Overground. Whether you're commuting or heading out for the day, travel is simple and efficient. The area is also well served by numerous bus routes, giving you flexible options for getting around locally and connecting to nearby stations and town centres.

a word from the expert...

  "For me it’s the sheer variety you find in each pocket of Walthamstow that makes working and socialising here so enjoyable. Whether it’s having a coffee from Perky Blenders, going for a Sunday morning walk in Epping Forest, dropping into one of the local breweries in Blackhorse Road, or catching up with friends in Lloyd Park, the growth and positive changes within E17 have been incredible in recent years."   KIM HEYWOOD E17 BRANCH MANAGER

Our Local Guide:
Walthamstow

Markhouse Road, 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.
