Description

This three-bedroom period home spans approximately 1,285 sq. ft. and presents a promising opportunity for families looking to invest in a property with both character and considerable renovation potential. The ground floor features a bright front reception room enhanced by a classic bay window, cast iron fireplace, and elegant hardwood floors, showcasing the home's historical charm. The rear of the house accommodates an additional reception and dining area that provides versatile space for everyday living or entertaining, complemented by a separate kitchen and a conveniently located WC. A significant highlight is the generous 30ft rear garden, ideal for creating an indoor-outdoor living experience. The first floor retains remnants of its previous configuration as two flats, allowing for straightforward reconfiguration into a single family residence. It comprises three spacious bedrooms, with one currently functioning as a kitchen but easily convertible back to its original use as a bedroom. The layout is completed with a family bathroom. The expansive rear garden not only offers ample space for enjoyment but also holds substantial potential for extension (subject to planning permission), making it an excellent choice for those looking to personalize their living space. Situated on Pretoria Avenue, a tranquil tree-lined street benefiting from Walthamstow's Mini Holland Scheme, this location offers a peaceful community while remaining well-connected via nearby St James Street and Blackhorse Road stations—ideal for commutes to central London. This area is particularly attractive to families due to its proximity to reputable schools and thriving local amenities such as Crate E17's independent shops and eateries. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate access to Walthamstow Wetlands and Hackney Marshes, providing desirable green spaces close to central London.
