A charming Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage in the heart of Great Bardfield, offering period character and compact, cosy living. The sitting room features exposed beams, a brick fireplace with an inset log burner and a compact kitchen with under-stairs storage — ideal for a first-time buyer or investor seeking low-entry village property.
The cottage is small (approx. 330 sq ft) with low to average ceilings and a simple layout: entrance porch, living room, kitchen, double bedroom and a three-piece shower room. The shower room needs upgrading and the property generally requires renovation and modernisation throughout, so it will suit buyers prepared to carry out works.
Outside there is an enclosed garden area accessed via the driveway and a separate off-street parking space. The house is freehold, has very low council tax, no flood risk and sits in an affluent, low-crime village with good local facilities and primary schools nearby.
Important practical note: listed status will restrict alterations and may complicate renovation works. Buyers should factor in listed-building consent timescales and possible conservation-grade repair costs when budgeting.
