Summary - Potters Cottage, Bardfield Road, Thaxted, DUNMOW CM6 2LP
2 bed 2 bath Semi-Detached
Renovated period cottage with generous garden and countryside views.
Renovated 1600s Grade II listed cottage with original beams
Potters Cottage is a renovated 17th-century semi-detached cottage combining original character with practical modern living. Exposed beams, a log burner and sash-style features sit alongside a newly fitted kitchen, contemporary bathrooms and a new boiler, creating a comfortable, move-in-ready home. The extended lounge and kitchen/diner open onto decking and a generous tiered garden, with far-reaching countryside views that give a strong sense of privacy and calm.
The layout spreads over three levels and offers flexible living: a cosy reception/snug, a large lounge with patio doors, and two double bedrooms each with en-suite facilities. Two separate staircases reflect the house’s historic footprint and add character, while good natural light in dual-aspect rooms enhances the feeling of space across the approximately 1,116 sq ft interior.
Practical notes for buyers: the house is Grade II listed, so alterations will be restricted and may require listed-building consent. The driveway is currently under construction and the property is EPC exempt because of its listed status. Freehold tenure and off-street parking add convenience, and local transport links (A120/M11) make commuting feasible while Thaxted village amenities are within easy reach.
This home will suit buyers who value period charm and countryside outlooks but understand the responsibilities that come with listed ownership. The recent renovation reduces immediate maintenance needs, yet any further changes should be planned with statutory constraints in mind.
