A handsome Edwardian semi on a large 0.22-acre plot in Roydon, offered chain free and ideal for a growing family. The house retains period features — high ceilings, sash windows, original doors and cornice — and provides generous living space across three floors, including a sizeable fourth bedroom in the loft. The double garage and broad driveway deliver excellent parking and storage.
The ground floor layout includes a traditional reception hall, large living room with garden access, formal dining room and a practical kitchen with rear lobby and shower room. Upstairs are three double bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the second-floor bedroom benefiting from deep eaves storage. The mature rear garden is private and mainly lawned — a standout family asset for play and entertaining.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the house is lived-in but dated and requires renovation and updating throughout to reach modern standards. The building is solid brick with no known insulation in the walls, the glazing is double glazed though install date is unknown, and the property will benefit from improvements to heating and finishes. Council tax is described as expensive and local recorded crime is above average — factors to weigh for budgeting and security planning.
Location is a key strength: Roydon village amenities, primary schools, pubs and the station are all within walking distance. Fast rail links to London, Stansted and Cambridge make this a strong commuter choice. For families wanting space and period character with potential to extend (subject to consents), this property offers substantial scope to modernise and personalise.
