This three-bedroom Victorian semi-detached cottage on Gladstone Road is a comfortable family home within a short, level walk of Ware High Street and the train station. The ground floor offers an open-plan lounge/diner with bay window character and a well-sized kitchen opening onto a modest, well-kept rear garden with rear access. Upstairs are three well-proportioned bedrooms and a contemporary re-fitted bathroom—suitable for a young family or commuter household.
Practical benefits include gas central heating, double glazing (installed 2002 or later), and an affordable council tax band. The property’s 883 sq ft footprint is average for its type and sits on a small plot, making outdoor upkeep straightforward. Excellent local schools—including two outstanding secondaries—and fast rail links to London (direct services under 45 minutes) add strong family and commuting appeal.
A few points to consider: the home dates from the early 20th century and has solid brick walls with assumed no cavity insulation, which may affect long-term energy efficiency. The EPC is rated E, and there is a single family bathroom—potential buyers may want to explore insulation upgrades or further modernisation to improve running costs and comfort.
Overall, this Victorian cottage combines period character and practical modern updates in a sought-after, very affluent part of Ware. It will suit families seeking proximity to schools and transport, or buyers wanting a character home with potential to increase efficiency and value through sympathetic improvement.
