1 bed Flat For Sale £375,000
Melbourne Road, London E10


Description
This Victorian bay-fronted ground floor garden flat sits on a quiet and leafy street within a popular pocket of residential roads on the Leyton Walthamstow border. You enter the property into a wonderfully bright and spacious open plan kitchen living area complete with tier-on-tier shutters, cast iron fireplace and marble hearth, solid wood worktops and bespoke kitchen island. From the kitchen you enter the hallway where an understairs cupboard and shelving provide ample storage space. The hall leads to a fitted bathroom and a light, airy master bedroom overlooking the garden, with a further bay window. With access from the kitchen, the large private rear garden is a charming, tranquil space. The patio area is great for entertaining or outdoor dining and the secluded area at the back is ideal for a peaceful morning coffee or repotting plants. The garden comes to life in spring, with many perennials returning each year including bluebells, roses, wisteria, lilac and apple tree, poppies, camelias, irises and peonies. You can even pick fresh wild garlic in March.

The location has become increasingly popular, with an abundance of local amenities including restaurants, cafes, pubs, supermarkets and shops. There is a Tesco superstore a 5 minute walk away, while you have Walthamstow High Street, Leyton High Road and Stratford Westfield nearby for all your shopping needs, and Walthamstow Market every Sunday. The area has great cafes and restaurants, particularly in Wathamstow Village and Francis Road, both 15 minutes by foot. Bromley’s Café, Perky Blenders and Huck’s do fantastic coffee within a 2-10 minute’ walk. Bromley’s also have an amazing all-day brunch menu. If you like pubs, there is no shortage. Your new local would be the Spark House, which is open till 2am with live DJs on weekends. Also nearby, the Castle does excellent food and the Coach and Horses does a great roast. A little further afield is the Walthamstow Beer Mile, with Trumans, Signature and Exhale breweries, or Hackney Wick. Gnarly Vines has a fantastic selection of wines which you can enjoy in their garden, or pop down to the new Pinch La Deli for an aperativo after work on Fridays. There is plenty of green space nearby too - you can walk to Leyton Jubilee Park or cycle to Epping Forest, Hackney Marshes and the Olympic park in 10 minutes, and Walthamstow Wetlands in 15.

If you work in central London then a long commute is a thing of the past, as you are spoilt for choice of stations, with Walthamstow Central (Victoria line, Overground), Leyton Midland Road and Lea Bridge (Overground) stations all within a mile, and Leyton station (Central line) also nearby. With a bike hangar directly outside the property (you get a priority space), station cycle hubs and excellent cycle lanes in the area, it is also easy to get around by bike.

Waltham Forest council has big development plans to ensure the area continues to thrive, including a £30M redevelopment of Soho Theatre Walthamstow due to open in early 2023. Other initiatives worth trying include the OrganicLea fruit and veg box scheme, the Forest recycling project (sells reclaimed paint, scaffold boards and fabrics) and Walthamstow tool library.

An added bonus, the freeholder is offering to transfer the freehold of the property for legal fees only (i.e. No charge for the freehold itself), which can be incoporated into the purchase if desired.
