A thoughtfully arranged two-bedroom first floor flat, set in the heart of Walthamstow Village, with Orford Road’s much-loved cafés, pubs and local shops right on the doorstep. Walthamstow Central is a short walk away too, keeping the location nicely connected while still feeling tucked into one of E17’s most characterful pockets.
IF YOU LIVED HERE…
You’d come in at ground level, with stairs leading up to the first floor, where the layout is arranged with a good sense of separation between living, sleeping and everyday space. The reception room sits to the front, with soft carpet underfoot, a broad window drawing in natural light and a calm, simple finish that would be easy to make your own.
Both bedrooms are set along the hallway, with the larger room featuring a decorative fireplace and built-in storage. The second bedroom is a useful additional room, with wood flooring and a bright feel, making it well suited to guests, working from home or whatever else life needs.
To the rear, the kitchen has pale grey cabinetry, tiled splashbacks and warm-toned flooring. The bathroom is finished with a shower enclosure, WC and basin, while the chain free position adds a practical note for anyone hoping for a smoother move.

a word from the owner...
"I bought Orford Road in 2005, and it was my home for 16 years. I only moved away from Walthamstow in April 2022 to start a new chapter with my partner, setting up home together just outside of London. I hope the new owner enjoys the flat as much as I have. The neighbourhood is great, and has a great sense of community...I'm sure the new owner will be welcomed into the Orford Road WhatsApp group as soon as the moving in vans arrive! The flat has everything on its doorstep and is very well connected with public transport. When I lived here I especially enjoyed the 35 minute commute into KingsCross on the Victoria Line, which is a 5 minute walk from the flat, as well as 2 overground lines (Weaver and Suffragette) and the bus station. For pubs and eateries, you can’t go wrong with any of the pubs in The Village! My favourite was always The Castle, especially for Sunday roast. The breweries on Ravenswood industrial estate are all great, and Gods Own Junkyard is a must! A 25 minute walk away, or one stop on the tube, you have the Blackhorse Beer Mile, with a number of breweries. This area is great for a lazy Saturday! There is also an urban winery in this area! At the end of the market, on the High Street, towards St James’ Park station, Don Francisco Y La Luna is an excellent tapas. The River Lea and Walthamstow Wetlands and Marshes are very close by, which are great for walking and running routes, and provide a well needed escape to nature."

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.
