This two-bedroom Victorian terraced cottage puts town-centre living within easy reach of Bishop’s Stortford high street and mainline station — ideal for a first-time buyer or investor seeking straightforward, low-maintenance accommodation. The house has been updated with a modern fitted kitchen featuring a granite worktop, newly installed UPVC double glazing and a new front door, and benefits from gas central heating throughout. Vacant possession and no onward chain make for a quick, uncomplicated sale.
Accommodation is compact but well laid out: a front reception room leads through to the fitted kitchen, with a ground-floor bathroom and two double bedrooms upstairs. The enclosed rear garden is small and low-maintenance; a side passage leads to it and there is residents’ permit parking to the front. The property’s footprint and room sizes are typical of Victorian mid-terraces — comfortable but limited in floor area.
Practical considerations to note: the house is built with solid brick walls and no known cavity insulation, and it currently holds an EPC Band D. These factors limit thermal efficiency and may prompt improvement works to reduce running costs. Buyers wanting more space would need to consider structural alterations or extensions (subject to planning), as the plot and layout are compact.
For investors, the property’s central location and strong local rental demand suggest immediate let potential — guide rental income is estimated at around £1,350 PCM. For owner-occupiers, the combination of town-centre convenience, excellent local schools, and fast broadband/mobile signal gives a comfortable, connected base with upside from modest energy-efficiency upgrades.
