Description

This semi-detached cottage is situated in a picturesque rural setting, offering a wonderful opportunity for renovation and potential expansion. The property boasts impressive views over the Essex countryside and is conveniently located just a short drive from Epping Town, which features a lively high street, excellent transport links to London, and reputable schools. With approximately 1,150 square feet of living space, the home has a welcoming entrance porch that leads into a light-filled hallway. The modern kitchen breakfast room comes equipped with wooden worktops and stylish appliances, perfect for culinary enthusiasts. The second reception room provides direct access to the garden—a versatile area ideal for hosting gatherings or family time. The spacious living room showcases a cozy fireplace and folding doors that open to reveal beautiful vistas of the landscaped garden. Upstairs, the master bedroom features a charming fireplace and wooden flooring alongside two additional bedrooms and a contemporary family bathroom. Set back from Mount Road on a quiet private lane, this cottage ensures peace while still being accessible. The generous rear garden extends approximately 120 feet in length, primarily laid to lawn with fruit trees—offering an excellent environment for children or pets. Notably, there are two garages set alongside the property for convenient parking or storage. Importantly for investors, there is substantial potential to extend the property at the rear (subject to planning permission), thus increasing living space and value in this desirable location.
