Victorian two-bedroom with private garden and long lease, close to stations.
Approximately 614 sq ft, two-bedroom first-floor maisonette
A bright two-bedroom first-floor maisonette on leafy Leucha Road, offering an unusually long lease (185 years) and private outdoor space — rare for this price band in Walthamstow. The apartment sits within a Victorian mid-terrace and benefits from double-glazed sash windows, a generous reception room and a kitchen/diner that opens onto a balcony and private garden via external steps. Council Tax Band B, low service charge (£48 pcm) and a nominal ground rent (£10 pa) make running costs predictable.
This home will suit first-time buyers or young families seeking character, outdoor space and excellent transport links: Blackhorse Road and St James Street stations are within walking distance, providing fast central London commutes. The layout includes a front double bedroom and a smaller second bedroom that works well as a nursery, guest room or home office. The EPC C and mains gas heating mean the property is reasonably efficient for its age, and the internal presentation is modern and bright.
Notable considerations: the building is solid-brick Victorian with assumed lack of wall insulation, which may lead to higher heating bills than newer stock. The surrounding area scores high on deprivation and has average crime levels; buyers should factor local social dynamics into their decision. The property is leasehold (185 years remaining) — long lease but still subject to service charge and ground rent terms. The overall size is modest (approx. 614 sq ft) so space is limited compared with larger family homes.
Overall this is a practical, characterful home that delivers private outside space, low monthly charges and strong transport connections. It represents accessible entry to Walthamstow’s popular neighbourhoods for those prioritising location and outdoor space over expansive internal square footage.
