A word from the owner...

"Myself and my partner have absolutely loved living in this flat over the last two years. It was our first step on the ladder and has been a fantastic experience, following many years bouncing around the London rental market. We are only moving in order to add another bedroom and will certainly be looking to find a new place in Walthamstow. The area is perfect, with a brilliant gym just a stones throw away, new bars and restaurants opening all the time in St James Street and the surrounding area, moments away from the excellent and varied high street, and only 10 or so minutes walk to Walthamstow Village. It's also very easy to hop onto the Victoria Line or Overground and be in Central London in about 20 minutes. The flat itself is ideal for a couple or solo buyer, the lounge area is large and the bay windows at the front allow a ton of natural light to burst in. The bedroom is bright and the window looking out onto trees and greenery is always nice to wake up to. The kitchen is nicely tucked away from the other rooms and there's a very large storage unit built in. Ultimately, Walthamstow has served as the perfect place for us to live over the last few years and we will be sad to leave this flat, but excited to continue our journey in E17."
