About this home

Situated on the sought-after Thaxted Road in Saffron Walden, this three-bedroom semi-detached home presents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a property with substantial scope for improvement and extension, subject to the necessary consents.

The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, spacious sitting room, separate dining room, kitchen and family bathroom on the ground floor. Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including two generous doubles and a comfortable single bedroom.

A particular highlight of the property is the exceptionally large rear garden, offering tremendous potential for extension and landscaping to create a superb family home. To the front, a generous driveway provides ample off-street parking for several vehicles and leads to a detached garage.
