2 bed flat for sale

Upper Walthamstow Road, Walthamstow E17

Set on the substantial first floor of a handsome Edwardian end-of-terrace home, this generous 790 sq ft maisonette blends period character with modern style. With high ceilings, large windows, and elegant proportions throughout, the home feels bright, airy, and full of charm. Inside, you’ll find two bedrooms, a stylish contemporary kitchen/diner, and a spacious reception room. At the rear, a private garden offers your own outdoor escape.

You’ll be perfectly positioned to enjoy the best of Wood Street, one of Walthamstow’s most vibrant areas. Local cafés, bakeries, and independent shops are just around the corner, while Wood Street Station (on the Weaver/Overground Line) is a short stroll away, making it easy to reach Walthamstow Central, Liverpool Street, and beyond.

If you lived here...

Step into the impressive 220 sq ft front lounge, where rich dark vintage floorboards run underfoot and an original hearth and mantel anchor the space with character. A stately sage green palette pairs perfectly with the natural light pouring in from the glorious bay window. Bespoke alcove shelving and storage are ideal for books or treasured collections.

To the rear, the spacious 160 sq ft kitchen/diner is both practical and striking. Royal blue cabinetry and Corian worktops sit beneath ivory herringbone tiled splashbacks, all beautifully lit by the garden-facing window. There’s plenty of room for dining and entertaining here, with views of greenery that invite the outside in.

The principal bedroom is almost 180 sq ft and flooded with natural light thanks to its dual aspect. A sizeable built-in wardrobe offers generous storage, while lovingly restored original floorboards lend warmth and texture.

The bathroom next door feels like a boutique hotel suite, with smoky grey hexagonal floor tiles, a chic walk-in rainfall shower, and clean, contemporary finishes throughout.

The second bedroom is a flexible space—ideal as a cosy guest room, nursery, or a bright and peaceful home office.

And then there’s the garden. Accessed directly from the kitchen through a glazed door, it stretches 40 feet and features a neat lawn leading to a raised patio at the rear—perfect for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or evening drinks. Bespoke horizontal timber fencing adds a modern architectural edge, softened by mature trees and shrubs that offer privacy and seasonal colour.

A word from the expert...

"For me it’s the sheer variety you find in each pocket of Walthamstow that makes working and socialising here so enjoyable. Whether it’s having a coffee from Perky Blenders, going for a Sunday morning walk in Epping Forest, dropping into one of the local breweries in Blackhorse Road, or catching up with friends in Lloyd Park, the growth and positive changes within E17 have been incredible in recent years."
