8 Berthons Gardens, Wood Street, London, E17 3NH

This smart and spacious three-bedroom home enjoys a peaceful setting on the vibrant Wood Street, while remaining just moments from the charm of Walthamstow Village.

Highlights include a bright dual-aspect reception room, a separate kitchen, a well positioned first-floor bathroom, and a beautifully landscaped west-facing rear garden, the perfect space for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying outdoor living.

If you lived here... The spacious dual-aspect open-plan living area is rich in period character, with natural light flowing throughout to create an inviting space for relaxing and entertaining.

A striking brick mantelpiece celebrates the home’s heritage, while the neutral decor and soft carpeting add a contemporary touch.

This seamless blend of traditional and modern design continues into the kitchen at the rear, featuring sleek fitted units, high-spec appliances, and excellent storage.

During the warmer months, the rear doors in both the reception and kitchen open out to extend the living space into the garden.

The west-facing landscaped garden offers a stylish combination of patio and lawn, along with useful storage.

Upstairs, the property offers two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a third smaller room, ideal as a child’s bedroom, nursery, or home office.

The family bathroom is finished to a high standard, with smart fittings and a generous bathtub with overhead shower.

Beyond your home, you’ve got some brilliant amenities - Epping Forest’s Hollow Ponds is only a short stroll away, where you can even rent a rowing boat during summer months.

Head in the other direction for the main hub of Wood Street, where you’ll find everything from The Wood Street Bear to the award-winning Chocolatine bakery (warning - once you’ve tried to double chocolate twists, you’ll be hooked).

At the Ravenswood Industrial Estate you’ve got more quirky but creative gems, such as the ever-popular God’s Own Junkyard, Pillars Brewery and gin palace Mother’s Ruin.

Even closer you’ll find Lacy Nook, a brilliantly rustic Balkan dining experience. The Lambs Cafe is another great option, especially for a hearty full English or Greek breakfast.

Slightly further, Walthamstow Village is packed with ancient history, as well as an eclectic mix of independent shops, cafes, restaurants, pubs and stores.

If you need to escape further afield, you’ll be pleased to know that you’re only a few minutes on foot from Wood Street station, where you can nip to Liverpool Street in 20 minutes on the Weaver Overground.

Change one stop down the line at Walthamstow Central for the Victoria line.
