This freshly renovated two-bedroom semi offers a compact, move-in-ready home within a short walk of the mainline station and Bishop’s Stortford town centre. The accommodation includes an open-plan kitchen/diner, sitting room, shower room and two double bedrooms, arranged over approximately 597 sq ft — ideal for first-time buyers or commuters.
The property retains period red-brick character externally while the interior has been modernised with neutral decoration, double glazing and a gas boiler with radiators. A private rear garden, pedestrian side access and permit/off-street parking add practical outside space uncommon at this size, and there is no onward chain for a quicker sale.
Be aware the overall plot and house are small, so living space and storage are limited. The solid brick walls were built pre-1930 and are assumed to lack cavity insulation; further insulation works could be needed if energy efficiency is a priority. Despite the compact footprint, local schools (including several with Outstanding ratings), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal make this a convenient town-centre commuter home.
This property suits buyers seeking a low-hassle, centrally located starter home with character and outdoor space, or investors targeting reliable rental demand close to transport links. Council tax is described as affordable and flood risk is low.
