Summary - 61 OLD HIGHWAY HODDESDON EN11 0LT
2 bed 1 bath End of Terrace
Character home with long south-westerly garden and commuter links.
Two bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace, freehold
A traditional two-bedroom Victorian end-of-terrace offering straightforward, affordable family living just opposite Old Highway Recreational Ground. The house has a large through living/dining room with feature fireplace, a kitchen that opens onto a long, south-westerly rear garden and retains period brick character externally. The property is freehold, has mains gas central heating and double glazing (installation date unknown).
This home suits first-time buyers or downsizers seeking a sensible purchase with scope to personalise. The long garden (approx. 90ft) and open-plan ground floor create potential to improve entertaining space and value, while the compact footprint and small plot keep maintenance manageable. Broadband speeds are fast, and Rye House station is within easy reach for commuter links to central London.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the area scores as deprived with above-average crime statistics and constrained local housing classification. The walls are solid brick with no known insulation (assumed), the EPC is D, and some local schools and services show mixed Ofsted outcomes. The property is an older build (circa 1900–1929) so further upgrading or insulation work may be advisable.
Overall this is a well-located, characterful cottage for buyers prepared to invest modestly to modernise and improve energy performance. It offers clear commuter convenience and a generous garden — good potential for long-term uplift in this price bracket.
