A chain-free Victorian mid-terrace cottage with genuine potential in Chesham town. The house offers two double bedrooms, two reception rooms and a small rear garden — a solid blank canvas for someone happy to modernise. Its compact 750 sq ft layout suits first-time buyers or couples aiming to add value.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing and reported solar panels to the roof. The property sits in an affluent area with fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and is within the catchment for high-performing schools including Chesham Grammar (Outstanding), making it attractive to buyers prioritising education.
The home requires comprehensive updating throughout: modernisation is needed in kitchen, bathrooms and general decor; walls are original solid brick and likely uninsulated. Buyers should factor renovation costs and potential structural or services upgrades when planning works. Chain-free sale speeds the purchase process but there is no allocated parking and the garden/plot is small.
For buyers seeking character and location over turnkey condition, this cottage offers scope to create a stylish, efficient home in a well-connected town centre spot. Its period features, school links and clear redevelopment potential make it a strong option for first-time buyers or those aiming to refurbish for resale.
