Summary - 152A MARKHOUSE ROAD LONDON E17 8BQ
2 bed 1 bath Flat
Ground-floor two-bed with long private garden and no onward chain.
Ground-floor two double bedrooms, bright bay-front reception
Tucked behind a Victorian façade, this ground-floor two-double-bedroom flat blends period charm with immediate practical benefits. The bay-fronted room, original floorboards and a feature fireplace give the home character, while large windows and a rear kitchen/reception keep interiors bright and sociable. Outside, a long private garden (circa 48ft) extends the living space and offers clear potential for planting, entertaining or a children’s play area.
The property is offered with no onward chain and a share of freehold, making it straightforward to buy. At about 639 sq ft the layout suits first-time buyers, couples or small families wanting garden access in a commuter-friendly location — St James Street Overground and Walthamstow Central are both walkable for fast links into central London.
Practical points are clear: the building is a solid-brick Victorian terrace with double glazing, mains gas boiler and radiators. Council Tax Band B and an EPC C reflect reasonable running costs, but the terrace construction likely lacks modern wall insulation, so further thermal improvements could be considered. The area has excellent broadband and mobile signals but records above-average crime and higher local deprivation, which buyers should weigh alongside the transport and amenity benefits.
This flat is a comfortable, characterful home ready to occupy, or a sensible long-term investment for someone happy to update cosmetic or efficiency elements. Proximity to outstanding primary schools, Walthamstow Market and the Wetlands adds lifestyle appeal for families and commuters alike.
