Description

This semi-detached Edwardian house, featuring two double bedrooms, is situated in the heart of Sawbridgeworth on the highly regarded Knight Street. The property enjoys a prime location, just a short walk away from a range of local amenities including well-regarded primary and secondary schools, various shops for everyday needs, dining options, and accessible public transport via the mainline train station to London Liverpool Street and Cambridge. Additionally, the larger towns of Bishop's Stortford and Harlow are easily reachable by car, as is junction 7a of the M11, which connects to major routes including the M25. The residence retains many original character features that highlight its Edwardian charm but currently requires modernization throughout. It comprises a welcoming entrance hall leading to a sitting room with a bay window and an open fireplace, along with a separate dining room that includes access to under-stairs storage. The kitchen is functional and provides direct access to the enclosed rear garden. The first floor landing offers access to two spacious double bedrooms; both include double-glazed windows and feature fireplaces that add historic appeal. A centrally located bathroom completes the upstairs layout. Outside, the west-facing rear garden measures approximately 28 feet in length and is surrounded by brick walls and timber fencing for added privacy. It features a pathway leading to a gate at the front of the property and includes an older brick-built structure for additional storage, as well as an old outside toilet. This property presents significant renovation potential for investors or homeowners looking to create a personalized living space while taking advantage of favorable market conditions in this desirable area. With immediate vacant possession available and no onward chain, this could be an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in real estate or undertake their own refurbishment project.
