If you lived here...

Positioned behind a handsome brick frontage, the building makes a strong first impression, with striking bay windows, an arched entrance and original detailing that hint at the character found inside. The flat benefits from its own front door, leading into an entrance hallway with stairs rising to the main accommodation above, giving a clear sense of privacy from the outset.
Upstairs, a painted balustrade and gentle daylight shape a welcoming hallway that links the rooms with ease. The reception room is a real highlight, with a bay window and an additional side window, combined with high ceilings that give it real presence. Decorative coving frames the room beautifully, while soft grey walls provide depth and a refined backdrop for relaxing and entertaining.
The two bedrooms are thoughtfully arranged, each with its own sense of character. The rear bedroom feels particularly restful, with tall twin windows and a cast-iron fireplace adding a subtle period note. The second bedroom also features a fireplace, bringing warmth and visual interest.
The kitchen is finished with clean-lined cabinetry and rich green tiling, creating contrast and personality, while herringbone flooring introduces warmth underfoot. The bathroom has a fresh tone, finished in white with a full-length bath, overhead shower and built-in storage that keeps everything feeling composed.
Above, the loft room offers excellent floor space, naturally lit by a skylight, with expansive eaves storage neatly set into either side. Outside, a generous shared garden with a wide lawn and established planting provides a green, inviting setting throughout the year.
The surrounding area blends strong local favourites with easy access to open landscapes. Just moments away, The Hare & Hounds is a popular neighbourhood pub, well regarded for its craft beers, relaxed atmosphere and beer garden. Weirdough Bakery is worth the wander for excellent coffee, pastries and brunch favourites. A little further on and in the other direction, the Leytonstone Railway Arches are home to a collection of permanently based independents, including Leyton Calling, a laid-back tropical cocktail bar, and Chop Shop Tavern, known for its food and drinks in an industrial-style setting. Leyton Jubilee Park sits nearby, while Walthamstow Marshes offers expansive walks and open views. Families are well served by a strong choice of schools, including the outstanding Sybourn Primary School, just three minutes away on foot.

A word from the owner...

Warner flats are a wonderful place to live. They are very practically laid out, with good sized and regularly shaped rooms. In my opinion much nicer than a period house that has been chopped up into flats found in many other parts of London. I have enjoyed taking care of number 68. The street is quiet as there is no through traffic, and during the summer months neighbours’ kids safely play in the street.
Walthamstow and Leyton are great neighbourhoods with the marshes or the forest easy places to visit for exercise or relaxation. As the first London Borough of Culture Waltham Forest always has something happening, and every few months there seems to be another local brewery opening.
The rest of London can easily be reached by either the Victoria Line to the North or the Central Line to the South, the 58 or 158 buses, that stop at the end of the road, can take you to either station if you don’t fancy a walk.
