A circa 1800 one-bedroom semi-detached cottage on Great Sampford High Street offering period charm and a small private courtyard. The house retains exposed beams, a brick fireplace and other character details that will appeal to buyers wanting a traditional village home. It is chain-free and freehold, making a straightforward purchase for those ready to refurbish.
The accommodation is compact: ground-floor entrance hall, kitchen, shower room and a cosy living room with stairs up to the double bedroom. Low ceilings and small room sizes reflect the property's age and limit layout changes without significant structural work. The property requires full modernisation and upgrading throughout.
Outside there is an enclosed rear courtyard garden and a leasehold parking space for a single vehicle adjacent to the property. Practical benefits include very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — helpful for home working in a rural setting. EPC rating F and period construction mean energy efficiency and systems will need attention.
This cottage suits a first-time buyer, investor or downsizer who values village life and is prepared to renovate to create a comfortable home. The village offers a primary school, pub/restaurant and regular local amenities, with Saffron Walden and rail connections within reasonable driving distance.
