Description

A bright and sleekly developed two bedroom, ground floor Warner apartment, full of clean contemporary designer lines, vintage features and all the benefits of this timeless layout. All located within easy walking distance of St James Street. Conceived at the turn of the century by Walthamstow's first mayor, Sir Thomas Courtenay Warner, these signature, rock solid brick properties remain some of the most popular around. IF YOU LIVED HERE... Taking in the striking, whitewashed brick ground floor frontage, you'll step inside through your dedicated front door, to find lovingly restored original timber flooring underfoot in your lengthy hallway. This flows on into your open plan kitchen and reception on the left, an artful affair, naturally bright and well over 200 square feet, with a sage green statement wall, timber worktops, exposed brick hearth and garden access. Step out here for your lengthy, secluded side return, festooned with thriving pots and leading out to the substantial rear lawn, secluded by mature foliage, screening greenery and timber fencing. Back inside and both bedrooms are well appointed blends of classic and contemporary style, while your bathroom is especially striking, featuring marbled hexagons underfoot and brass fittings set against a vertical white letterbox backdrop. Outside and, as noted, it's less than twenty minutes on foot to St James Street. Here you have St James Street overground station and direct, eighteen minute runs to Liverpool Street. Next door to the station is CRATE St James, our entrepreneurial hub where you'll find everything from burger bars to barbers and yoga studios. Finally, the bottom of Walthamstow High Street is also the start of the famous Walthamstow Street Market, the longest in Europe. If you can't buy it here you probably don't really need it. WHAT ELSE? - Nature's never far away, with nature reserves, meadows and even the great green expanse of Hackney Marshes all starting less than twenty minutes from your front door. - Lea Bridge station is just a half mile on foot for one stop, seven minute trips to Stratford, and a whole host of onward destinations. Not to mention Westfield shopping centre. - Your new local could be The Hare & Hounds, the pride of Lea Bridge Road with a delightful beer garden, sumptuous decor and, of course, delicious food and drink. Just five minutes on foot.

"We are going to be leaving Hibbert Road with very heavy hearts - we have absolutely adored our 10 years here. The road has a great community spirit with the best neighbours - one of which owns Pinch La Deli at the end of the road which we can highly recommend! BLOK gym is a 3 min walk away and is great for Yoga + workouts - a really special place to have on your doorstep. Definitely worth checking out. It's at the back of Patch works which has a brewery and great pizza / coffee / jerk chicken on offer all on your doorstep. St James is also a great spot to have nearby with Crate and amazing coffee at Beaten by a Whisker. There are also more hidden gems like Pavillion Bakery and Turning Earth Pottery studios on the trading estate behind Aldi - a short walk for great pottery classes and delicious coffee + pastries straight from the bakery. It's the perfect location - a very quick and easy bus up to Clapton + Hackney, easy walks at the weekend to the marshes and very easy commutes thanks to St James Overground + tubes. No wonder we've stayed a full decade!"
