Charming Two-Bedroom Home with a Huge Mature Garden & Private Parking
This is a lovely, characterful two-bedroom home that feels a little different from the usual. It’s set back from the road, giving it a sense of privacy, and comes with private off-street parking for three cars — a real bonus in this part of London.
The house itself is bright and welcoming, with good-sized rooms, plenty of natural light and some lovely individual touches throughout.
The house
The reception room is a particularly inviting space, with large windows looking out towards the garden and a rich green feature wall that gives the room a warm, cosy feel.
There are two bedrooms, a family bathroom, useful storage and a well-equipped kitchen.
The kitchen has a nice mix of practical features and traditional character, including a gas cooker, granite worktops, a 1.5-bowl Villeroy & Boch ceramic butler sink and real copper cupboard handles. There’s plenty of worktop and cupboard space, as well as good natural light.
The garden
The garden is probably one of the biggest surprises of the property. It’s exceptionally large and mature, with established trees, shrubs and planting giving it a wonderfully private and secluded feel.
There’s a generous paved terrace, which is perfect for sitting outside, having friends over or simply enjoying the garden in the warmer months. There’s also a greenhouse and shed, making it a great space for anyone who enjoys gardening.
For a home of this size, having a garden like this is quite unusual — there’s plenty of room for children, entertaining, gardening or simply having somewhere peaceful to escape to.
Parking
The property is set back from the street and has private off-street parking for three cars, which is a particularly useful feature and not something you often find in Walthamstow.
The location
The house is in Walthamstow, E17, in a well-established residential area with a good mix of local shops, cafés, restaurants, transport links and green spaces.
Blackhorse Road Station is around a mile away, with both the Victoria line and London Overground, making getting into central London straightforward. Walthamstow Central is also around 1.2 km away and provides another convenient option for commuters.
There are local bus routes within a short walk, with services around Higham Hill Road and Forest Road connecting the surrounding neighbourhoods.
For day-to-day life, there are plenty of useful local shops, cafés and independent businesses around Higham Hill and Forest Road, while Walthamstow itself has a much wider choice of restaurants, shops and leisure facilities.
And if you like having some greenery nearby, you’re very well served. Lloyd Park is a great local spot, with open lawns, mature trees, a café, tennis courts, outdoor gym, basketball facilities, children's play areas and the William Morris Gallery.
There are also Higham Hill Park and Stoneydown Park nearby, while the Walthamstow Wetlands offer a much larger natural environment, with reservoirs, wildlife and walking routes.
The wider Epping Forest area is also within easy reach, giving you plenty of opportunities for walking, cycling and getting out into nature.
In a nutshell...
This is a home with a lot going for it: two good bedrooms, a characterful interior, a well-equipped kitchen, parking for three cars and an exceptionally large mature garden with a greenhouse and shed.
Add in the excellent transport links and the choice of parks, wetlands and local amenities nearby, and it’s an appealing combination of London convenience with a surprisingly peaceful and green feel.
