About this home

For a first-time buyer looking for a house rather than a flat, this character cottage offers an opportunity to secure a freehold home within walking distance of Bishop’s Stortford town centre and mainline station. There is plenty of scope to improve the property over time, and the pricing has been positioned to reflect this. Importantly, some of the more significant work has already been undertaken, while the remaining opportunity gives a new owner the chance to put their own stamp on the house. The ground floor provides a good-sized living room, a separate dining room and kitchen; which was installed a year ago, creating clearly defined spaces for relaxing, entertaining and working from home. Upstairs are two double bedrooms together with a recently fitted bathroom. Outside, the house has its own enclosed rear garden; a particularly attractive feature for buyers moving from rented accommodation or apartment living, together with a front garden and resident permit parking available across surrounding streets. New Town Road places the property within easy reach of the town centre’s shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities, while Bishop’s Stortford station is within walking distance. With two genuine double bedrooms, freehold tenure, private outside space and an EPC rating of C, this is a home that can be occupied and enjoyed while further improvements are made at the buyer’s own pace.
