Summary - 197 MANOR ROAD CHIGWELL IG7 4JY
2 bed 1 bath Cottage
Historic home minutes from Grange Hill station; scope to modernise.
Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage, freehold
A handsome Grade II listed mid-terrace cottage arranged over two floors, offering generous internal space of approximately 930 sq ft. The property keeps period character — exposed brickwork and sash-style windows — while providing practical family accommodation: a large living/dining room, a well-sized kitchen and a spacious bathroom. Two double bedrooms plus a landing/study area give flexibility as a two- or three-bedroom home.
Positioned a short walk from Grange Hill station, local shops and several well-regarded schools, the cottage suits commuters and families who need easy access to transport and amenities. The plot is urban and compact; the front courtyard-style garden is paved with raised beds and offers low-maintenance outdoor space rather than extensive lawns.
Buyers should note the property’s listed status will limit permitted changes and may complicate repairs or upgrades. The solid brick walls are likely uninsulated, and the house would benefit from cosmetic updating throughout; the existing boiler and radiators run on mains gas. The overall condition appears sound externally but internal modernisation and energy-efficiency improvements will require specialist advice owing to the listing.
This home will appeal to families seeking a characterful, central Chigwell location, or to buyers looking for a period property with clear potential to personalise. It is offered freehold and presents a rare opportunity to own a historic cottage within easy reach of transport links to London.
