This renovated two-bedroom Victorian terraced cottage in Margaretting blends original character with contemporary comforts. The cosy lounge features parquet flooring, exposed beams and a brick fireplace with a log burner, creating an inviting living space for family evenings. The modern shaker kitchen has stone worktops and high-quality AEG appliances, flowing into an open-plan dining area with a skylight and bi-fold doors onto a long landscaped garden.
The rear garden extends to approximately 90ft, offering excellent space for outdoor entertaining, play and gardening. Practical benefits include UPVC double glazing and fitted shutters throughout, a recently installed electric boiler in the loft, and a single garage in a block with gated front parking. The property is freehold and set in a sought-after village location with good road links and nearby rail services to London.
Notable drawbacks are straightforward and factual: broadband speeds in the area are slow, there is one bathroom only, and the garage is in a communal block rather than attached. Council tax is moderate and local crime levels are average. These are balanced by the property’s sizeable plot, renovated condition and countryside setting.
This cottage will suit buyers seeking village life within commuting distance of Chelmsford and London, families wanting access to well-regarded local primary schools, or purchasers who value a blend of period character and modern finishes. The home is ready to move into with some practical limits (single bathroom, slow broadband) to consider depending on lifestyle needs.
