"We’ve loved living here, and what we’ll miss most is the road itself.

It’s a genuinely friendly street with an active WhatsApp group, the kind of place where neighbours look out for each other and you actually know the people around you, which sometimes feel rare in London.

The flat is quiet, and the garden especially so. It gets sun for most of the day and feels like a proper retreat from the city.

We’ve spent countless mornings out there with coffee and long summer evenings having BBQs with friends. The location has been a real gift.

Walthamstow Wetlands and the Marshes are on the doorstep for walks and cycles, and you quickly forget how close you are to central London.

Transport links are excellent, so commuting has never been a chore.

There’s a brilliant run of independent cafés and restaurants nearby (Beaten by a Whisker is our favourite) and the Blackhorse Beer Mile is a short stroll away for a weekend afternoon.

It’s also a great spot for families, with several good primary schools nearby and the area’s top-choice secondary within easy reach.

We’ve put real care into the flat over the years, most recently with a new kitchen and bathroom and full redecoration, and it’s been a lovely place to come home to.

We’re only moving because our family needs more space, otherwise we’d happily stay!

Whoever takes it on is getting a warm, light, well-looked-after home in a corner of London that genuinely feels like a community."
