Summary - WHITE COTTAGE TYE GREEN ELSENHAM BISHOP'S STORTFORD CM22 6DY
3 bed 2 bath Detached
Characterful three-bed cottage on almost 0.5 acre with workshops and parking.
Grade II listed cottage with period features and recent updates
White Cottage is a characterful Grade II listed three-bedroom detached cottage set in almost half an acre overlooking Tye Green. Recently updated by the current owners, the house keeps period features such as exposed beams, original wooden floors and a large inglenook fireplace with a four-year-old log burner, while offering practical modern comforts including an induction hob, double oven, dishwasher and an oil-fired boiler installed in 2022.
The well-proportioned accommodation is arranged over two floors and includes a dual-aspect sitting/dining room with parquet flooring, a useful utility room, ground-floor shower room and a first-floor ensuite to the principal bedroom. Outside, a gravel drive with five-to-six car spaces, a five-bar gate and walled frontage provide excellent off-street parking; the rear garden is mainly lawn with a newly re-laid patio and well-stocked borders. Two timber outbuildings (one with light, power and a fuse box, the other insulated) offer storage, workshop space or a home office/gym.
The setting will appeal to families seeking rural life with good links: Elsenham village amenities, local primary schools and a mainline station are a short drive away, while Bishop’s Stortford and the M11 are reachable within minutes. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and the property sits in an affluent, low-flood-risk location with countryside views.
Important practical points: the Grade II listed status will restrict changes and could complicate extensions or alterations. Council tax is above average, and local crime is noted as above average. Buyers should factor listed-building consent and any associated maintenance responsibilities into their plans, despite the recent renovation work and generally good decorative order.
