This charming home is just a two-minute walk from Tottenham Hale Station. Offering direct links to Stansted Airport, Liverpool Street, and central London via the Victoria Line, you'll be well-connected here to explore both near and far. We love the cosy and welcoming feel of this home. The living area is the perfect spot to hunker down with a book, the kitchen has an espresso maker for your morning java, and both bedrooms are supremely comfortable. As an added bonus, you'll also have a private garden – the perfect spot to enjoy sundowners on a summer evening.
