This detached period family home has the added benefit of an annex. It is located on Station Road, under a five minute walk from Sawbridgeworth mainline station connecting to the village centre. Sawbridgeworth station is on a mainline to Cambridge and London which is accessible within fifty minutes.

The property dates back to the 17th and 18th century with charming character features throughout. It benefits from being set well back from the road with parking for 4/5 cars.

There are three bedrooms on the first floor with the older part of the house having one bedroom with lower ceilings and two bedrooms on the second floor. The bedrooms on the second floor have lowered ceilings due to the age of the building. We have been advised that above the ceiling is a void to the roof, this could offer the potential to increase the head height, subject to the relevant consents being in place.

Outside the property benefits from a large rear garden with a detached workshop with double doors that open to the front driveway and detached converted barn with accommodation comprising kitchenette, living area and separate shower room.
