A wonderfully elegant three bedroom, dual reception family home in much-loved Upper Walthamstow. Situated on an impressive Victorian terrace, this is an immaculately presented, two-storey house with an idyllic, south facing back garden.
From the cycle-friendly, pedestrianised Village, to our celebrated green spaces and a spectrum of Ofsted-rated 'Outstanding' schools, Walthamstow has been an increasingly popular destination for families for some years now. This is the perfect introduction.
IF YOU LIVED HERE
You'll be enjoying the generous living spaces of the Victorian period, with over 1200 square feet to stretch out in. Your fabulously high-ceilinged main reception is both beautifully corniced and exquisitely timber-floored, with sunlight flooding through the handsome bay- window. Centrestage is your intricately ornate fireplace, a meticulously preserved, period detail masterpiece. Next door is your second spacious reception, an ideal study, office, playroom, studio, exercise room or whatever you desire.
Upstairs, you'll find the master bedroom, immaculately carpeted and illuminated by two striking sets of sash windows. Your second, bedroom is beautifully parquet-floored while your third is warmly carpeted and flooded with natural light. Your brightly lit bathroom features a tasteful mosaic-tiled tub and fresh white tiling with a large, space-enhancing mid-wall mirror.
Back downstairs your galley kitchen has a rustic Cotswolds feel, with a skylight overhead, plentiful wooden cabinets and matching worktops, a sturdy double stove and traditional, hardwearing slate flooring. Next door is your sumptuous dining room, sun-drenched and wooden-floored, leading directly onto your garden, another dreamy aspect of this enviable home. A fairy tale perfect standing trestle awaits climbing ivy in your herringbone-floored patio, complete with timber pergola, all leading onto a luscious, semi-wild, tree and shrub-lined lawn.

a word from the owners...
"We have lived at this property for over 27years, and as we were moving in, a neighbour (Jane) came over and greeted us, and introduced us to our immediate neighbours. And also, invited us over to hers for a tea/coffee. Our children immediately began playing and racing along the pavement with her son and other children who were out at the time. I love working in my garden, and have recently begun working on a mini wildlife and bog area. We have frogs and toads, and in the smaller pond nearer to the house, we can always find plenty of newts. We go on some great walks and rides, out and about in the forest, and down to hollow ponds. We cycle along the river banks and around wetlands. We love the cafe’s, restaurants and wonderful bakeries in Wood street. Quite often we buy freshly made croissants and cinnamon buns early in the mornings at ‘chocolatine’ bakery. Beautiful! ‘The feel good centre’ is such a good place to get fit, have fun and meet new people. The instructors are brilliant! I really enjoy being a member there. The ‘Art Trail’ is an annual summer event, where local artist and creatives exhibit their art in the local shops or their homes. It is a nice challenge following the map and finding some really lovely treasures of work. We will really miss living here, but will definitely come back for the street parties."

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.

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.
