Builders in Walthamstow

Walthamstow is located in the London Borough of Waltham Forest. The town has great character, a community feel and is one of the most up and coming places to live in the whole of London.  If you are considering moving to or visiting Walthamstow, Essex and London Construction, as trusted builders in the area, are happy to provide insight as follows:

1. Location: Walthamstow is surrounded by highly accessible public transport. It is just 7.5 miles away from Central London, which makes it a great place to live for city workers.  

2. History: Walthamstow dates back to the Roman era. Often when large sites are excavated, remains of Roman settlements are uncovered. In the late 18th and early 19th Century, the area was greatly developed, with beautiful Edwardian and Victorian houses with expansive parks, for families to enjoy. 

3. Cultural Diversity: Walthamstow celebrates diversity, with residents from all nationalities, ages and economic backgrounds. The town is known to hold many festivals which celebrate local culture. 

4. Housing: Housing in Walthamstow has become incredibly popular, as it yields one of the best returns on investment for developers and home owners alike. The houses tend to be larger than new build properties, and so are highly sought after, as a means of maximising returns on investment. Essex and London Construction provide services to occupant home owners and developers alike, so there are certainly opportunities for property owners with a range of needs and aspirations. 

5. Walthamstow Village: The Village houses St Mary's Church and is known for its cottages and family atmosphere. If you are looking for a traditional place to shop, the village is a great place to be. 

6.  William Morris Gallery: William Morris is one of England's most known and respected artists. The museum allows visitors to get up close, inspect his art, personal possessions and hear more about the life of such a wonderful artist. 

7. Walthamstow Market: If you are looking for a traditional place to shop, Walthamstow market is a great place to shop. From local bakers, to butchers and crafts shops, you will have a great time not only looking at the offerings, but smelling the wonderful foods, crafted as you walk along the streets. 

8. E17 Art Trail: The art trail further offers an opportunity to appreciate art in the community. Usually held annually, it is best to check that the event is taking place, as the schedule is subject to change. 

9. Walthamstow Wetlands: If you are looking for a lovely day out with your family, pets, or even somewhere just to unwind yourself, the Walthamstow Wetlands are a great place to visit.
