Description

This two-bedroom property, originally two smaller cottages, offers significant renovation potential and is ideally suited for cash buyers. Having been a cherished home for the same owner for many years, this Grade II Listed residence now awaits a fresh vision to restore its former charm. Nestled in a sought-after village on the border of Hertfordshire and Essex, the home benefits from proximity to essential amenities. Roydon features a traditional village green, local shops including a Morrisons convenience store and post office, and public houses. The main-line station provides convenient access to London Liverpool Street in approximately 33 minutes, making it an attractive option for commuters. Families will appreciate the nearby Roydon Primary Academy as well as various recreational options, including parks and beautiful riverside walks along the River Stort towpath. The layout includes a welcoming living/dining room with characterful details like leaded light windows and an attractive fireplace. The kitchen/breakfast room is functional and spacious, providing ample opportunity for modern updates. On the ground floor, you'll also find a utility room and a shower room. Upstairs are two generously sized bedrooms along with a bathroom that could benefit from refurbishment. The property features a small front garden framed by wrought iron railings, with gated side access leading to the rear garden. This outdoor space includes a paved patio area and is primarily laid to lawn—perfect for further enhancement or landscaping projects. While some areas may require updates—such as the timber garden store—the overall structure stands ready for revitalization, providing an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in residential renovation within this desirable location. All mains services are connected, including gas-fired central heating, simplifying the path forward for any prospective renovations.
