This recently refurbished four-double-bedroom mid-terrace sits in the heart of Chigwell Village, a short walk from the Central Line, well-regarded schools and local shops. The ground floor has a 32'4" x 19'1" open-plan living, dining and bespoke kitchen with two sets of bi-fold doors that open to a south-facing garden overlooking open fields. A large utility room, ground-floor cloakroom and a second reception currently used as a gym add practical flexibility.
Upstairs, the generous master bedroom features bespoke fitted wardrobes and a tiled en-suite wet-room; three further double bedrooms and a contemporary four-piece family bathroom complete the layout. The property extends to about 1,650 sq ft, includes a driveway and front garden, and is offered chain free. There is scope to convert the loft subject to planning permission for additional space.
Notable building and running details: the house was built c.1976–82, has secondary glazing and electric ceiling heating, and cavity walls with partial insulation (assumed). These factors reduce immediate renovation needs but mean buyers should budget for future heating improvements and confirm insulation and wiring details. Crime in the area is reported as above average, though the local neighbourhood is otherwise affluent with excellent transport and digital connectivity.
Overall this is a modern, well-presented family home in a desirable village location with clear potential to extend into the loft. Buyers seeking a move-in-ready house near schools and the tube will find strong appeal; those sensitive to electric-only heating or wanting guaranteed double glazing should check specifications and running costs before committing.
