2 bed Flat For Sale £499,995
Grosvenor Rise East, Walthamstow, London E17
previous price £540,000

A larger than average, “loft like” two double bedroom flat, situated in an architect designed building on Grosvenor Rise East.

This fantastic split level apartment boasts over 1100 square feet of internal space, spread across the upper two floors of a small, modern development, right in the heart of Walthamstow Village. It’s set out in an “upside down” format, with the bedrooms on the lower floor. Both of these are incredibly generous doubles, being 200 and 140 square feet respectively, with solid wood flooring and plenty of room for free standing storage. The bathroom sits between them, with a three piece suite and tiling to all walls.

The bedrooms being below allows the top floor to be entirely given over to “daytime”, in this case a cavernous, open plan kitchen/diner/lounge. It’s a vast space, over 31 feet in length, and filled with light thanks to a window at one end and a skylight above. There is more of that solid wood flooring underfoot, together with fitted kitchen units running along one wall and under eaves storage at the far end. It will easily accommodate both dining and relaxing zones, and be the perfect spot to entertain family and friends.

Outside there is a landscaped communal garden to the rear, with lawn, mature border planting and terrace areas. There are also secure bicycle storage facilities.

Living Here...

Having the amenities of Orford Road literally on your doorstep is a real luxury, with a number of independent cafes, pubs and restaurants to enjoy.

Walthamstow Central Station is also within walking distance and offers great transport links into Central London via the Victoria Line and London Overground.

In This Area - By Walthamstow Diary

Despite what people may tell you, Walthamstow Village was not invented by estate agents. It’s called Walthamstow Village because it was once exactly that, a village. Once the administrative heart of Walthamstow, the Village is now content to simply be the neon capital of Europe. An unlikely claim you might think, but visit God’s Own Junkyard on Ravenswood industrial estate and you’ll see what I mean.
When your mind has been blown by the neon, pop in to Mother’s Ruin Gin Palace and Wildcard Brewery. All three businesses are based on Ravenswood, making it the most exciting industrial estate on the planet. The Village is full of quiet residential streets that all have easy access to bucket loads of pubs and restaurants. Take in the jazz at The Nags Head on Sunday afternoon, enjoy the excellent food and beer at The Queens Arms, and sample the legendary chicken and bacon jam burger at Eat17.
To walk off all the food you’ve eaten, wander to the 15th century Ancient House, check out St Mary’s Church and its ivy clad church yard, have a pint in the garden at The Castle Pub, then admire the art in the windows of the old iron mongers.

In The Owners Words...

This elegant Amey Court apartment is being offered for sale for the first time since it was built 15 years ago on the site of an old factory. Award-winning London architects Sergison Bates, renowned for their imaginative use of brickwork, were asked to create a building that was truly modern, but also sympathetic to the Walthamstow Village Conservation Area. Amey Court has a pitched zinc roof with large mansard windows that bring southerly light into the loft-like living space. The beautiful Edwardian Mixed Grey bricks – a favourite of the family of builders after whom it is named – were laid by local craftsmen behind other famous London restoration projects such as Eastbury Manor House, Wilton Music Hall and Turner’s House in Twickenham.

Inside, the architectural attention to detail continues with high quality materials, clean sightlines and beautifully proportioned living spaces.

Grosvenor Rise East has a rich history and recent residential conversions on all sides, plus the traffic management changes, have made the road into one of Walthamstow’s hidden gems.
