Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on Bishops Stortford’s northwest side, this extended 1930s detached house offers adaptable living across two floors for growing families. The ground floor provides a dual-aspect sitting room with French doors to the garden, a family room with a working fireplace, a fitted open-plan kitchen/dining area, a home office and a convenient shower room.
Upstairs there are four bedrooms, including a main bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en suite, plus a family bathroom. The plot is a notable asset: a decent, well-tended rear garden of about 60ft with a sun terrace, lawn and mature borders. The driveway provides off-street parking for two to three vehicles and there is potential to create a garage at the rear, subject to necessary consents.
Practical details to note: the property dates from the 1930s and, while well maintained and extended, parts may benefit from updating (glazing install date unknown). Council tax is described as quite expensive. Crime levels in the local area are reported as high, which some buyers will want to weigh alongside the area’s strong schools and transport links.
This location delivers easy access to the town centre, mainline station and highly regarded local schools, including Bishop’s Stortford College. For families seeking period character, generous outdoor space and flexible reception rooms within commuting distance of London, this house presents a comfortable, adaptable base with scope for further improvement or extension, subject to planning.
