This two-bedroom mid-terrace cottage in historic Coggeshall blends period character with practical modern comforts. Exposed beams, an exposed-brick fireplace and a wood burner create a cosy living space, while an open kitchen/diner and summerhouse extend usable space. The property is chain-free and offered freehold, making it straightforward for a first-time buyer or small household to move quickly.
The house is compact at about 508 sq ft and sits on a small plot, but the rear garden is a genuine asset: mainly lawn with a patio, shed and a good-size summerhouse for home-working or leisure. Broadband and mobile coverage are excellent, and council tax is described as low — useful for tighter household budgets.
Buyers should note several practical considerations. The overall size is small and room dimensions are modest; this is not suitable for larger families needing lots of storage. The building is period and likely has poor thermal performance (walls noted as timber frame with no insulation assumed), which contributes to an EPC rating of D and may mean higher heating costs unless upgraded. Flooding information in the listing is inconsistent — a high flood risk flag is present in the supplied data and should be checked with local authorities and insurers before purchase.
Internally the layout includes two bedrooms plus a small study, a modern ground-floor bathroom and fitted appliances in the kitchen. The house offers scope for targeted improvement rather than wholesale renovation, so buyers wanting a character home to personalise will find potential here. The location is central to shops, cafes and commuter links, and local schools rated Good are nearby.
