Set in sought-after Takeley, this three-double-bedroom semi-detached cottage offers period charm and practical convenience. The main bedroom includes an en-suite, and the property is chain-free, ready for a buyer to personalise. Off-street parking and a small garden make it suitable for everyday family life.
The house has clear potential to extend the living space by converting the carport (subject to planning permission). Internally the layout is traditional and comfortable, though the home will benefit from modernisation and energy-efficiency improvements—timber-frame walls are assumed to lack insulation and some updating of services may be needed.
Commuters will value the proximity to Bishops Stortford station (under 5 miles) with direct links to London and Cambridge, as well as fast road access via the M11 and nearby Stansted Airport. Local schools rated Good and nearby countryside, including Hatfield Forest, add to the lifestyle appeal for families.
