Ash Tree Cottage is a well-presented three-bedroom detached home set in the heart of Widdington village, suited to a small family or those seeking a peaceful country base. The layout offers a welcoming sitting room with bay window and open fireplace, a refitted kitchen linked to a generous dining area, plus a useful utility and cloakroom for everyday practicality. The kitchen was renewed around six years ago and includes integrated appliances.
The property sits on a modest plot with a paved patio and lawned rear garden, enclosed and private. Off-street parking is provided by a driveway to the side; the home benefits from double glazing throughout and generally good broadband speeds, reflecting its appeal to those who work from home or need reliable connectivity.
Buyers should note the practical constraints: the house has one family bathroom and occupies a relatively small plot with average internal square footage (c. 1,050 sq ft). Council tax is above average for the area. The house was built around 1990 and, while well maintained, will appeal more to buyers seeking ready-to-move-in accommodation with scope for modest updating rather than a major renovation.
Location is a key strength: Widdington is a quiet, affluent village with low crime and a strong community feel, and nearby Newport and Saffron Walden provide rail links, schools and broader amenities within a short drive. Overall, this cottage-style detached home offers comfortable, characterful living in a desirable rural setting with realistic expectations about size and running costs.
