Description
Upstairs, the home continues to impress. The primary bedroom benefits from a bay window that mirrors the living room below and ample built-in storage. The second double bedroom overlooks the garden and also includes built-in storage. A flexible third bedroom is ideal as a child’s room or could easily be utilised as a dedicated home office or study. A neat three-piece bathroom and an additional hallway storage cupboard complete this floor. A significant bonus is the convenience of dedicated off-street parking.
This fantastic location is truly what sets the home apart, being perfectly placed in the much sought-after Walthamstow Village. From here, a short walk takes you to Walthamstow Central, providing excellent links into Central London and the West End via the Victoria Line and Overground trains. The vibrant social heart of the Village, Orford Road, with its array of shops, pubs, and eateries, including Ruff’s Bistro, Bora & Sons, and Pavement, is also within easy walking distance, offering a superb lifestyle.

Rent-driven metrics
Based on OpenRent comparables.
- Rent ratio — Monthly rent ÷ purchase price (1% rule). 1%+ = strong, 0.8–1% = okay, <0.8% = weak for cashflow.
- Max investor price — Rent ÷ 0.8%; the price at which rent would be 0.8% of price (Stoke-style target).
- Target investor price — Rent ÷ 1%; the price at which rent would be 1% of price (strong cashflow band).
- Gross yield — Annual rent as % of purchase price (no costs).
- Cost-to-rent — Price ÷ annual rent (from OpenRent comparables). Under 14× = strong, 14–16× = acceptable, 17×+ = compressed.
- Cashflow — Rent minus mortgage, 10% maintenance, £25/mo compliance. Assumes 75% LTV, 3.95% APR (5yr fixed), 25yr term.
- ROI — Annual profit ÷ cash in (deposit + 4% purchase costs).
