Two spacious bedrooms with walk-in wardrobe; single Jack & Jill bathroom
Loft conversion potential to create third bedroom and en-suite (requires consents)

Set on The Green in picturesque Great Bentley, this two-bedroom Victorian semi-detached cottage combines period charm with recently refreshed interiors. The house has been newly painted and decorated throughout, and benefits from large sash windows, high ceilings and an extended rear sitting room that opens directly onto a private courtyard garden. From the first-floor windows you’ll find clear, uninterrupted views over The Green.
The layout suits couples or small families: a generous living room, ground-floor cloakroom, modern kitchen/diner with integrated appliances and a rear sitting room. Upstairs are two spacious bedrooms — one with a walk-in wardrobe — served by a Jack-and-Jill bathroom. There is clear potential to convert the loft into a larger third bedroom and en-suite, subject to consents, which would add significant family flexibility.
Practical positives include off-street parking for two vehicles, a shed/workshop with access to the front, mains gas central heating and fast broadband/mobile signal. The location is convenient for an outstanding primary school, village amenities and direct rail links to London.
A few material points to note: the property currently has a single shared bathroom, the EPC is D, and cavity walls appear as-built with no insulation assumed. The plot is small and the garden is courtyard-style rather than a large rear lawn. Any loft conversion would require planning/building approvals. These factors are reflected in the guide price and should be considered alongside the cottage’s strong location and scope for improvement.
