Wetherden Street Walthamstow , E17 8EJ

IF YOU LIVED HERE…

We’re sure you already appreciate the beauty of the property’s iconic design, which was developed by Walthamstow’s first mayor at the turn of the last century - and you’ll take pride in owning something that has such a rich background story.

Coming in at 659 square foot, you’ll have plenty of space to spread out inside, while the smart layout means you can keep different aspects of your lifestyle separate, and also ensures there’s plenty of storage room. The neutral decor and contemporary fittings blend seamlessly with vintage features, such as parquet flooring, exposed brickwork and column radiators.

In your reception room the neutral walls are bathed in light from the generously-sized windows, while both bedrooms are doubles with the same smart finish. In the kitchen, you’ll find modern units, glossy tiling and integrated appliances, while the bathroom is generous with a striking clawfoot tub and convenient utility space.

At the rear you’ve got your spacious section of the garden, with array of foliage and mature trees bringing a real sense of seclusion. As for beyond, you’ve got plenty more nature to explore; Jubilee Park is just a short stroll away, as are Hackney Marshes and Walthamstow Marshes.

Head a few minutes south and you’ll reach Lea Bridge Road, which has become a hot spot for independents, such as eco-refill store-cum-coffee shop Cups & Jars, Italian deli with a Japanese influence Pinch la Deli and eclectic event space/bar/pizzeria Patchworks, which now houses Blondies brewery.

Lea Bridge station is a 16 minute walk away, which means you can nip to Stratford or Tottenham Hale for quick access to several very convenient tube lines. St James St station is the same distance, where you can whizz into Liverpool Street via the Overground. On the way there you’ll pass the excellent Weirdough Bakery, as well as the wonderfully eclectic box park hub CRATE.

WHAT ELSE?
-- If you’re looking for a coffee and some peace and quiet, look no further than the nearby Lea Bridge Library, which recently won multiple design awards when a stunning extension housing a cafe was added to the Grade-II listed building. It’s a five minute stroll away.
-After a huge rebuild, the Lee Valley Ice Centre recently reopened. The new venue offers a range of learn to skate courses, public skating sessions and lessons that suit all ages and abilities. Alternatively, the Lee Valley Riding Centre runs all sorts of courses for pony-loving amateurs and experts alike. Both are within a walk away, so you’re in the perfect location for some new and unique hobbies.
-You won’t ever be stuck for essential items thanks to the great selection of convenience stores on Lea Bridge Road. Aldi is a short walk away.
