Bemsted Road, Walthamstow E17

You’ll have a distinctive part of East London's architectural heritage with this wonderfully spacious
two-bedroom ex-Warner maisonette full of vintage features, loads of storage and a shared rear garden. Set over the first and second floors and stretching over 1000 sq ft, there’s plenty of space to spread out, all enviably situated on a quiet no-through street, moments from beloved Lloyd Park. With an abundance of excellent local schools and attractions for children, this is an ideal home to raise a family. You're also in a brilliant spot for enjoying nature, with the edge of Epping Forest just an eight-minute drive away and other local green spaces such as Walthamstow Wetlands close by.

If you lived here...

Highly sought after for their rare blend of charm, practicality, and historical character, Warner homes were built with lasting craftsmanship, generous layouts, and solid construction that continues to impress today.

Step through your private front door and ascend the stairs to a reception room stretching the full width of the building. Hardwood floors run underfoot, linking the corridor and kitchen for a natural sense of continuity. A rich teal feature wall frames a vintage cast-iron fireplace with bespoke shelving tucked neatly into the alcoves. Triple west-facing windows invite light deep into the space, keeping the room bright right through to the evening.

Behind lies a double bedroom with soft fitted carpet and a second cast-iron fireplace, adding quiet elegance.

Next comes the bathroom, crisp in white tiling and fitted with a glazed walk-in shower. A smart vanity cabinet keeps essentials out of sight, while a full-height cupboard with louvred doors provides welcome extra storage. A discreet utility area leads to stairs that descend to the garden.

Down the hall, the kitchen pairs baby-blue walls with white cabinetry, thick wooden worktops, a white letterbox splashback, and a deep ceramic Belfast sink. Two wide sash windows flood the room with light and offer garden views, leaving ample space for a dining table and chairs.

Climb the wooden staircase to the top floor, where a spacious double bedroom enjoys a sky-filled Velux window and French doors opening onto a Juliet balcony. A smaller room next door serves equally well as a single bedroom or a quiet study, also brightened by a Velux window. Generous eaves storage ensures a place for everything.

Outside, a 40-foot lawned garden waits below, a private stretch of green perfect for slow mornings or unwinding at day’s end.

A word from the expert...

I love living in Walthamstow – it’s got such a great mix of things going on. Saturdays are my favourite, with the market in Lloyd Park full of fresh food, handmade bits, and plenty of friendly faces. The new Soho Theatre has brought amazing shows right to our doorstep, and if I fancy a pint, the Blackhorse Beer Mile breweries are perfect for a wander. When I need some fresh air, the Walthamstow Wetlands are just a short stroll away – all that greenery makes you completely forget you’re in London. Plus, with brilliant transport links, it’s so easy to hop on the Tube or Overground and be in Central London in no time at all.
