Summary - 51 High Street CM5 9DT
2 bed 1 bath House
Characterful two-bed house with extended kitchen and courtyard, steps from Ongar High Street.
Grade II listed Georgian semi detached house
A Grade II listed Georgian semi-detached house set just a short walk from Ongar High Street. The property offers two double bedrooms, two reception rooms, an extended 20'4 kitchen and a useful basement, all arranged over multiple levels and totalling about 1,033 sq ft. Original features such as sash windows, timber floors and fireplaces give character and period charm.
Practical positives include off-street parking to the rear (small subscription applies), gas central heating, double glazing and a pretty brick‑paved courtyard garden ideal for outdoor seating. The layout will suit those seeking central town living with flexible reception space and storage.
Important considerations: the house is Grade II listed which will restrict alterations and can complicate maintenance and works. The solid brick walls are assumed to lack modern cavity insulation, so retrofit insulation or updating could be needed. There is a modest annual service/parking charge of about £240. The property sits in an area with above-average crime statistics; buyers should factor this into their decision.
Freehold tenure, no flood risk and good local amenities (schools, shops, transport) make this a practical choice for a first-time buyer or small family who value character and high‑street convenience but are prepared for listed‑status responsibilities and some retrofit work.
