Summary - GOLDENS COTTAGE BRAINTREE ROAD WETHERSFIELD BRAINTREE CM7 4AF
3 bed 2 bath Cottage
South-facing garden, parking and Gigaclear broadband in a peaceful hamlet near good schools.
Grade II listed end-terrace with original beams and historic wall paintings
A handsome Grade II listed end-terrace set in an established farming community, this three-bedroom period home offers spacious rooms, exposed beams and original features throughout. The sitting room centres on a large brick fireplace with a log burner and historic wall paintings; adjoining reception rooms and a conservatory give flexible living space for family life.
Practical advantages include a south-facing rear garden with patios, off-street parking for two cars, a large brick storage shed and Gigaclear high-speed broadband. The kitchen includes an oil-fired Aga and an island/breakfast bar; useful utility, pantry and fuel store (oil tank) are all on the ground floor, with septic tank drainage.
Important considerations: the property’s listed status will limit alteration options and may complicate extensions or insulation works. The original timber-frame walls are assumed uninsulated, and heating relies mainly on electric storage heaters plus an Aga and oil tank—upgrades may be needed for modern thermal efficiency. Secondary glazing is fitted rather than full double glazing.
Chain-free sale and a peaceful hamlet location with very low crime make this an appealing choice for families seeking character and countryside life near good primary schools. Buyers wanting a move-in-ready, highly energy-efficient home should factor in potential refurbishment and listed-building constraints when viewing.
