Charming single-storey home with modern interiors and generous parking, ideal for downsizers.
Three double bedrooms, one ensuite
Helmer House is a beautifully restored three-bedroom thatched cottage set on a decent plot in the heart of High Wych village. The property is single-storey and has been recently renovated to combine period character — exposed beams and thatch — with contemporary finishes, including a modern kitchen/breakfast room and re‑fitted bathrooms.
The accommodation includes a generous open dining/living room, three double bedrooms (one with en-suite), a main bathroom and a separate w.c. Gas central heating, off-street parking for three cars and an enclosed garden add everyday practicality. Fast broadband and low local crime support both home-working and family life.
Buyers should note the house has traditionally small rooms and relatively low ceilings typical of its period, which will not suit those seeking very large, high-ceilinged spaces. The property sits in an area classified with higher-than-average local deprivation indicators — local services are village-scale — though nearby Sawbridgeworth and Harlow provide broader shops, schools and mainline rail links into London and Cambridge.
This freehold cottage will particularly suit buyers seeking single-storey living with character and modern fittings: think downsizers or small families who value village life, period charm and easy parking. Early viewing is recommended to appreciate the blend of original features and contemporary refurbishment.
