Lovely double room in Walthamstow close to tube

A lovely first floor double room with good storage, stripped floorboards in an Edwardian terrace house (1901). We’ve just fitted a new sash window and redecorated, so it is bright and cosy. The room is located at the back of the house, warm in winter, cool in summer. The bathroom is just next door and shared with one other female lodger.

Our beautiful kitchen tend to be the sociable space in the house, although we tend to eat our meals at different times. Our style is independent but friendly. We are happy to chat, but respect your privacy and space.

The house is quiet and relaxed and has a lovely garden you can eat in and chill out in in warmer months. We have two lodgers currently, a young professional and a NHS worker. We also have 2 cats who spend most of their time outside, but like to come into the kitchen to say hello. We have a cleaner who comes every fortnight to clean the kitchen and common areas.

Walthamstow is a popular and safe area with lots to explore. It is a 7 minute walk from Walthamstow Central and a few minutes walk from a lovely park, Tesco Metro, local shops, gyms, pubs and restaurants.

The area has excellent transport links. Tubes from Walthamstow Central can get you to Oxford Circus in 20 minutes on the fast and reliable Victoria Line, which runs 24 hours on Fridays and Saturdays. There are several overground lines too, taking you to Liverpool Street in 20 minutes and buses connect us to Stratford.

We love living in Walthamstow! There is lots to do, a multitude of trendy cafes and restaurants and a great market with street food at the weekends. The leisure centre is a 6 minute walk and there are several gyms nearby. There is a vibrant music and cinema scene here and the new Soho Theatre will be opening soon. There are lots of parks and green spaces and we have easy access to Epping Forest.

We have been hosting lodgers for 6 years+ and we love meeting new people of different nationalities. Our guests find us friendly and responsive hosts. We are looking for a quiet, respectful female lodger who is clean and tidy to join our relaxed and happy household, preferably someone who works away from home or no more than 2 days a week at home. I’m afraid we cannot accommodate any bikes.

If you think we sound like a good fit for you, please get in touch.
