A wonderful three-bedroom maisonette, extending over 900 sq ft and located on the ground floor of a striking 1960s block in Walthamstow. The space has been recently renovated by the current owners, CBY studio, to create an impressive light-filled, contemporary home.

Entry is through a hallway and into an open-plan kitchen, living and dining room. The bespoke kitchen utilises a rich palette of materials from a poured-concrete worktop with added coloured chips, to oak cupboards, a rust-coloured splash-back made from Viroc and wooden London plane cabinet handles.

Downstairs, the apartment has dual aspects and is bathed in light throughout the day, through two large windows. The living room is tucked around a corner in the ‘L’ shaped room, resulting in a more intimate space complete with open bookshelves. Engineered oak flooring runs underfoot. An internal window connects the front door with the main living space, allowing light to penetrate through and create a further sense of openness. There is also a ground-floor guest WC.

Upstairs are three bedrooms; the master bedroom which looks over the communal courtyard, and another currently being used as a studio with bespoke-ply cabinetry. There is a family bathroom with dusty-pink square tiles on the floor and white-brick tiles on the walls.

The blocks are arranged around a courtyard which houses a communal garden and a playground. The current owners have planted numerous herbs and flowers in part of the garden to the front of their apartment, and have placed a bench by the door to enjoy the morning sun.

Stocksfield Road is brilliantly positioned in Walthamstow, set back from up and coming Wood Street and a stone’s throw from many good restaurants and shops such as The Duke E17 pub and God’s Own Junkyard. It is also a short walk to Walthamstow Village, home to numerous independent shops, the famous Eat-17 deli and the William Morris gallery in Lloyd Park. The apartment is also close to an array of green spaces, notably Hollow Ponds which in turn lead into Epping Forest, one of the largest expanses of common land in London.

There are many good schools nearby, including the Ofsted-rated ‘Outstanding’ Woodside Primary Academy and Whitefield Schools. There are also great connections into central London; Wood Street (overground) runs trains to Liverpool Street in under 20 minutes whilst Walthamstow Central (Victoria Line) is less than a 20-minute walk away.
