A bright two-bedroom first-floor Victorian conversion located on a quiet turning between Lloyd Park and Walthamstow Central. Period details — high ceilings, decorative bay window and parquet flooring — give the living room strong character, while the well-fitted kitchen and a bathroom in good condition make the flat move-in ready. Good local transport links put the Victoria Line and Overground within easy walking distance, with quick journeys into central London.
Practical strengths include a long lease (approximately 101 years), chain-free sale, low annual ground rent (£250) and a modest Council Tax Band B. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and low crime figures add to everyday convenience. The property benefits from a communal garden and sits close to shops, cafes, markets and several well-regarded primary and secondary schools.
Known drawbacks are its leasehold status, solid brick construction likely lacking cavity insulation, and an EPC of C — meaning some energy efficiency improvements could be desirable. The area records higher deprivation indicators, so buyers should weigh local affordability against future uplift potential. Overall, the flat suits first-time buyers or small families seeking character, good transport and straightforward living, or investors seeking a well-located rental in E17.
