This Grade II listed weatherboard cottage on London Road blends historic character with practical family living. The house offers three bedrooms, two bathrooms and three reception rooms, including a vaulted dining space and a study, arranged over a comfortable 1,077 sq ft. Period features — sash windows, exposed timbers, red-brick and cast-iron fireplaces — give the home a strong sense of place while modern touches such as a bespoke distressed oak kitchen with integrated Neff appliances and two contemporary bathrooms add everyday convenience.
The large L-shaped rear garden (circa 100ft x 60ft) is a significant asset: Indian sandstone patio, lawns, established fruit trees and a former apple-sorting shed with power and water that could serve as storage, a studio or a home office. Off-street parking for two cars and a central town-centre location put shops, cafés, an excellent range of schools and the mainline station within easy walking distance — ideal for families who want convenience without losing a garden.
Important practical notes: the property’s listed status preserves its historic fabric but will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance and permissions. The house is average-sized for modern expectations and retains many original fittings, which may require ongoing upkeep or sympathetic upgrading. EPC is exempt due to listing.
Overall, this cottage is best suited to buyers who value period character and a large private garden in a prime Sawbridgeworth location and who are prepared to manage listed-building responsibilities and maintenance associated with an older home.
