This two-bedroom Victorian mid-terrace cottage in Stanstead Abbotts is offered chain free and suits a first-time buyer seeking a commuter-friendly village base. The layout is straightforward: living room opening into a dining area, a practical fitted kitchen, two upstairs bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom. At about 722 sq ft the accommodation is modest but well-proportioned for everyday living.
The location is a major asset. The property sits close to the high street with a Co‑Op, pubs and local services, and St. Margaret’s station provides direct links into London — a strong draw for commuters. Broadband speeds are fast and the area is very affluent with low crime and low flood risk, supporting long-term desirability.
The cottage retains period character (brick façade, sash-style windows, chimney stacks) alongside modern touches such as a contemporary kitchen, double glazing and solar panels. The rear private garden and small plot give outdoor space for relaxing or container gardening.
Buyers should note practical considerations: the mid-terrace was built with solid brick walls and likely lacks cavity insulation, so thermal improvements may be needed. The house is average in overall size and will reward cosmetic updating and energy-efficiency investment. Heating is mains gas via boiler and radiators; tenure is freehold.
