Pretoria Avenue Walthamstow , E17 7DE

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

You’ve hit the jackpot with an E17 location - you’re surrounded by some of our favourite E17 amenities here, but there’s plenty to admire at home as well…

Your dual-aspect through lounge comes in at a generous 275 square feet, with rich original floorboards flowing in from the semi-open hallway, and a pair of handsome vintage hearths adding plenty of character. The first of your two bathrooms is just down the hall—a boutique shower room finished in crisp white herringbone with onyx trim, plus a handy separate WC opposite.

Your kitchen/diner rounds off the ground floor nicely, with durable vinyl underfoot, smart timber cabinetry, and plenty of natural light thanks to windows on the side return and French doors opening onto that lovely, leafy garden.

Upstairs, your principal bedroom is a real standout at 175 square feet, with triple sash windows bringing in the light. The two additional first-floor bedrooms come with whitewashed timber floors and jet black hearths, while the family bathroom is beautiful with jade letterbox tiling around a classic freestanding clawfoot tub. Up in the converted loft, you’ll find your final bedroom, bright and calm with a skylit finish

Beyond the front door, you’ll be delighted to find that your new home is nestled in between some excellent green spaces; Lloyd Park, Walthamstow Wetlands and St. James Park – all reachable on foot. Jump on a bike and get to them even quicker.

As for urban perks, bear in mind that Conde Nast Traveller recently ranked Blackhorse Road among the UK and Ireland's top destinations to visit. Start by exploring the Blackhorse Beer Mile, home to some of East London's most exciting craft beer breweries, bars and street food, including Signature, Exale, Hackney, Wild Card and the epic Big Penny Social (look out for events across all of them).

If you head in the other direction you’ll find the incredible amenities that Hoe Street has to offer, including the long awaited Soho Theatre Walthamstow, and a whole host of award-winning restaurants.

WHAT ELSE?

Buses are plentiful too. You also have the option of strolling slightly further to St James Street or Walthamstow Central for the Weaver Overground route to London Liverpool Street.
-Just two mins away you’ve got an original Banksy, preserved within the Bonners fish and chip shop signage. Grab some delicious takeout and soak up some culture worth bragging about.
