5 bed terraced house for sale

Melville Road, Walthamstow, London E17

This fantastic five-bedroom mid Victorian house already offers over 1,540 square feet of versatile living space, it still has oodles of potential for extension, and with a 45ft South facing garden and an additional outbuilding, it’s certainly one not to be missed. From the front the original brick façade and Victorian double bay create fantastic kerb appeal, and some double glazed sash windows will create the ultimate package! You’ll be greeted by a wide entrance hall, giving access to a large reception room to the front, the first thing that you notice are the super high ceilings which are complete with ornate covings and ceiling rose, and the cast iron fireplace and wood floors bring the room together perfectly. Moving to the rear, the 21ft kitchen/diner is the ‘hub of the home’, we loved the combination of the solid wood shaker style cabinetry and integrated appliances and the doors leading to the garden are a lovely touch. The layout lends itself perfectly to a side return extension to create 320 square feet of prime entertaining space, it allows the option of a ground floor cloakroom, huge central island and bifold doors, as shown in the revised floorplan in the link below. Moving to the first floor, you’ll have a bay fronted master bedroom with the original covings and ornate cast iron fireplace, the second double bedroom just behind and a beautifully finished family bathroom and third double bedroom to the rear. The central landing area gives access to a secondary staircase, leading to two further bedrooms and an additional bathroom on the top floor, offering some great views over the chimney pots of Walthamstow. Externally, the 45ft South facing garden is the ideal place to host those summer BBQs, the aspect puts it in full sun for the majority of the day as it comes over the top of the house, and the detached outbuilding will make a great home office.

You’ll be sandwiched between all of Walthamstow’s main hotspots, with Walthamstow Central being just a short walk away, along with the vibrant community known as ‘Poets Corner’, a highly sought after alternative to Walthamstow Village, where the variety of boutique style shops, cafes, pubs, and restaurants offer all of the benefits of Orford Road, but without the hefty price tag for the privilege. Just a few minutes North will take you to Lloyd Park and a short walk North will lead you to the ‘Beer Mile’ with a whole host of micro-breweries and pop-up restaurants and music events. Couple this with the fantastic school catchment area including Greenleaf, Winns and Hillyfield primary schools and you’ll have the ultimate forever home.
