A Grade II Listed Georgian terraced cottage in the heart of Saffron Walden, this one-bedroom home blends period character with town-centre convenience. High ceilings, sash windows, timber floors and a feature fireplace create a characterful living room, while a compact but well-appointed kitchen and useful basement provide practical space for everyday life.
The property occupies a convenient Church Street location moments from shops, cafés, schools and transport links; Audley End station is about three miles away for Cambridge/London commuting. Outside, an enclosed paved courtyard offers private outdoor space and a handy store — low-maintenance and ideal for al fresco dining.
Buyers should note the house’s listed status and a flying freehold above the kitchen, which will affect permitted works and require specialist consent. The property shows some signs of age and would benefit from targeted modernisation in places, but its generous overall footprint (approx. 740 sq ft) and character features present strong potential to personalise.
Additional practical points: the tenure is freehold, council tax is described as affordable, broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent. The immediate area is very affluent with good local schools, though recorded crime rates are above average — worth considering for town-centre living.
