This wonderful three-bedroom house, with a private garden, can be found on Morland Road in Walthamstow, a stone’s throw from the verdant Walthamstow Wetlands and Marshes. The current owner has introduced a refined contemporary aesthetic within the renovation and extension, with internal accommodation now extending over 1,200 sq ft.

Entry is through a front courtyard, over the original black and red checker-board tiles and into a wide hallway. Towards the front of the house is the formal sitting room with large double sash window and bespoke cabinetry. This leads through into a second seating area with a beautiful, bespoke concrete fireplace as its central focal point. Pitch pine floorboards with a lye finish run underfoot.

Beyond is the modern extension which houses a kitchen and dining area. The kitchen, designed by the current owner, has a concrete worktop set against a reclaimed blue quarry-tile splashback, and a combination of white-painted and solid English-oak cupboards. There is also a useful utility room. The room is bathed in light through two skylights and timber-framed glazed Velfac sliding doors which open onto a larch deck and through into the garden. Downstairs there is also a guest WC and storage under the stairs.

On the first floor are two double-bedrooms both with bespoke fitted cupboards, a generous family bathroom and a lovely study. On the top floor is the master bedroom with two large windows looking over the garden and an en-suite shower room.

Morland Road is in a fantastic location, a 25 minute walk from Walthamstow Village, home to numerous independent shops, the famous Eat-17 deli and the William Morris gallery in Lloyd Park. St James Street is also home to Crate and numerous good coffee shops. Its also close to an array of green spaces, most notably the Walthamstow Wetlands and Marshes and the River Lea, as well as other local parks.

There are many good schools nearby, including the popular Coppermill Primary School which is less than four minutes from the house. There are also great connections into central London; St James Street (overground) is a nine minute walk away and runs trains to Liverpool Street in under 20 minutes whilst Blackhorse Road (Victoria Line) is a ten-minute walk away with trains into the west end in 15 minutes.
