Tucked away from the main road, this Victorian mid-terrace cottage offers a compact, characterful home with no onward chain—ideal for a first-time buyer or investor seeking a straightforward purchase. The ground floor feels welcoming with exposed beams, a cosy lounge centred on a log-burning fireplace, and a generous 16' kitchen/diner that provides practical living and dining space.
Upstairs are two double bedrooms and a bathroom lit by a central skylight. The property retains many original features while having practical updates such as double glazing and a modern wall-mounted boiler. The small, private courtyard-style rear garden is low-maintenance and unoverlooked, giving usable outdoor space without heavy upkeep.
Practical points to note: the plot and rooms are modest in size, typical of a period cottage, and on-street parking is unallocated on Church Lane. The house will suit buyers comfortable with compact living or investors targeting local rental demand; some cosmetic updating would allow new owners to personalise and potentially add value.
Overall this is a well-located, chain-free cottage a short walk from Braintree town centre and station. It combines period charm with sensible modern comforts and represents an accessible entry into the local market or a reliable buy-to-let prospect.
