Perth Road, Waltham Forest

This impressively designed two-bedroom ex-Warner apartment is located in a thriving spot within walking distance of Hackney Marshes, as well as some of the area’s best food and drink-based perks. Lea Bridge station is a short stroll away, and buses are plentiful, so you can reach Clapton, Leyton, Stratford and Walthamstow with fantastic ease.
As for the apartment itself, it’s had a lot of love put into the restoration, with the traditional features blending perfectly with the considered updates, and plenty of natural light. It also benefits from a private garden and a sole-use front door

IF YOU LIVED HERE…
You'll immediately appreciate the beauty of this iconic design developed by Walthamstow’s first mayor at the turn of the last century, and you’ll understand why they’ve become so sought-after now…
Set up on the first floor beyond your sole-use front door and hallway, the front reception room has been beautifully preserved with thoughtful updates such as the bespoke carpentry, painted floorboards and spotless decor, all bathed in light from the generously sized bay windows.
Both of the spacious bedrooms have more considered decor, as well as beautiful timber flooring. The kitchen hits the sweet spot between being characterful but also modern, with its navy shaker-style units, white tiling and brass fittings. This theme is continued in the sensational bathroom, where you’ll love the striking floor tiles and clawfoot tub with shower overhead.
You’ll enjoy making the most of your spacious rear garden, which is fantastically secluded due to the mature foliage and pergola at the rear. You’ve also got plenty more greenery to explore nearby; Jubilee Park is just a short stroll away, while Hackney Marshes is slightly further.
Walk a few minutes and you’ll reach Lea Bridge Road, which has become a hot spot for independents, such as Italian deli with a Japanese influence, Pinch la Deli and eclectic event space Patchworks, which now houses Blondies brewery - a great choice for a new local.
If you’re looking for a coffee and some peace and quiet, look no further than the nearby Lea Bridge Library, which recently won multiple design awards when a stunning extension housing a cafe was added to the Grade-II listed building.

A WORD FROM THE EXPERT.........
“Leyton has that rare mix of grit and warmth that makes everyday life feel a little richer. On Francis Road, Saturday mornings turn into catch-ups over coffee, while the High Road hums with the scent of everything from Peruvian fusion to fresh-baked bread. I love that you can be in Jubilee Park with the dog one minute, picnicking in Coronation Gardens the next, or heading to the Olympic Park for something completely different. It’s a place that gives you room to breathe without ever feeling sleepy.
The homes here have real soul; Victorian terraces with bay windows, Edwardian conversions full of character, and just enough quirks to make each one unique. Add the quick Central Line dash into town, schools you can count on, and a community that still says hello on the street, and it’s hard not to feel anchored here. Leyton isn’t trying to be perfect, it’s real, evolving, and exactly where I want to be”.
