2 bed flat for sale

Shernell Street, Walthamstow E17

***open house 6th June 2026***

An artfully arranged, two bedroom, ground floor garden apartment, with a wealth of incidental space and plenty of room to socialise. Your location is also enviable, just five minutes from the superb bars and gastropubs of Walthamstow Village.

As soon as you step inside there's a lengthy hallway, with clear sightlines from front to back, engineered hardwood underfoot and lots of natural light flowing throughout the open plan social space. Elsewhere, both bedrooms are solid, bay windowed doubles.

Your new home is sat between the bustling neighbourhood of Wood Street and the peaceful, part pedestrianised streets of Walthamstow Village, which means plenty of unparalleled nightlife exactly the right distance away. You also have greenery and transport within easy reach.
Your new home


Step inside and you have clear sightlines all the way to your kitchen to the rear, with the semi open plan lounge in between. It all makes for a wonderfully light and airy atmosphere, tremendous social flow and a great sense of space.

Bedroom one is immediately on your left, a 130 square foot double basking in the light of a large bay window and featuring the high ceilings of the period.

Next along, your substantial reception is laid open to the hall. A substantial social space, it comes in at around 180 square feet with natural light flowing in from all directions, including double patio doors leading out to the garden. We'll get out there in a moment.

On the way to the kitchen you have a charming breakfast nook and a hatch giving on to the lounge. In the kitchen proper you have more engineered hardwood underfoot, a sleek suite of glossy white cabinets and smoky grey worktops, with a seamless matching splashback.

Cross the reception room and you come to a secondary corridor, with some handy extra incidental space that could be turned to use for storage or a study nook. Here's also where you'll find bedroom two, another double, bay windowed and similarly styled.

Your bathroom completes the interior in style, decked out from top to bottom in large format, smoky tilework, and with a shower over the tub.

Finally your garden. Accessed via the French doors in the lounge, out here you have a secluded, split level patio, barely overlooked and surrounded by timber fencing. A great outdoor solace.
Your new neighbourhood


Surrounding streets are packed with highlights, with the Ravenswood Industrial Estate just doors away. Don't let the name fool you, this is home to the iconic neon wonderland of God's Own Junkyard, as well as the artisanal gin palace Mother's Ruin, Pillars Brewery and Taproom plus other eating and drinking spots.

It's also your pathway to Walthamstow Village proper, with the old high street of Orford Road just five minutes away. Explore here for a wonderful range of independent gastropubs, from The Nag's Head to The Castle and The Queens Arms. Plus there's a fine choice of bars, bistros and restaurants all clustered here, making The Village a real E17 highlight.

In the other direction, Wood Street is just as close, a lively, ever evolving neighbourhood with its own highlights including The Duke gastropub and the much loved Wood Street Bakery.

Wood Street overground will get you straight to Liverpool Street in just twenty minutes, while Walthamstow Central is around half a mile on foot for more overground destinations plus the speedy Victoria line, whisking you to Oxford Circus in just twenty minutes.

When it comes to natural space, the vast blue and green expanse of Epping Forest and Hollow Ponds is just ten minutes' walk away. Great for morning jogs, afternoon picnics and evening strolls. You can even hire row boats in the summer months, and explore the waterways in the company of friendly ducks.

Or, if you prefer your nature more manicured, the landscaped grounds of Lloyd Park are just twenty minutes on foot, and home to the William Morris Gallery as well as a wide range of sports clubs and classes.
