A newly refurbished one-bedroom Victorian conversion on Russell Road that balances period charm with modern convenience. High ceilings and a feature fireplace bring character to the living room, while double glazing and gas central heating provide practical, efficient living. The layout flows front to back, with the bedroom opening directly onto a private west-facing garden — unusually generous for a flat of this size.
The flat is well placed between Leyton and Walthamstow: Leyton Midland Road Overground is about 0.6 miles and Walthamstow Central Tube about 0.7 miles, with Walthamstow Village and local amenities within easy reach. Commuters will appreciate good bus links and fast broadband; the property is offered chain-free and with a long, secure lease (circa 962 years).
Important considerations are the local context and size. The area records very high crime and significant deprivation, which will matter to some buyers. Internally the flat is modest at roughly 52 sq m (560 sq ft) so storage and living space are compact. The EPC is D (65) and the building’s solid brick walls likely lack insulation, which may mean further energy improvements are worthwhile in future.
This home suits a first-time buyer or couple seeking a ready-to-move-in period flat with outside space and strong transport links. It also offers straightforward renovation potential (energy upgrades, cosmetic tweaks) for buyers wanting to add value while enjoying immediate occupation.
