1 bed flat for sale

Gainsford Road, Walthamstow, London E17

Nestled within a sought-after development, this stunning ground-floor apartment offers a rare opportunity to enjoy direct access to a secluded garden—something few properties in this community can boast. Perfect for first-time buyers taking their first step onto the property ladder, this stylish home was designed and built just six years ago by the innovative developer Pocket Living. Step inside, and you’ll find a bright and airy 20ft reception room and kitchen, where huge windows flood the space with natural light. There’s ample room for dining, and double doors open onto a private terrace—ideal for morning coffees or relaxing in the fresh air. The fully fitted kitchen comes with integrated appliances, while the bathroom provides a well-designed, contemporary space. The good-sized double bedroom, also featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, overlooks the garden, offering a peaceful retreat.

Beyond your private space, the development fosters a wonderful sense of community. Residents often gather in the large, shared rear gardens, complete with communal vegetable patches and herb gardens that are free for all to use. A secure gated entrance and ample bike storage add to the convenience and safety of the building. Location-wise, you’re just over a 10-minute walk from Walthamstow Central, Blackhorse Road, St James Street, and Walthamstow Queen’s Road stations, ensuring fantastic transport links. Plus, everything that makes Walthamstow special is right on your doorstep—whether it’s the beautiful Lloyd Park, buzzing breweries, independent coffee shops, food markets, or the Empire cinema. For those who love the outdoors, Walthamstow Wetlands and Epping Forest are also nearby, offering endless opportunities to reconnect with nature.
