Description

This detached three-bedroom house, built in the 1950s, is set on a generous plot of just over a quarter of an acre in a secluded location that benefits from proximity to the town centre and mainline train station. The property presents a significant renovation opportunity as it requires complete refurbishment and is currently considered unmortgageable due to existing spray foam insulation in the loft. With the potential for expansion or redevelopment (subject to planning permissions), this home is ideal for investors looking to unlock its full value. The layout includes a welcoming entrance hallway leading to a triple-aspect sitting room featuring a fireplace and an understairs storage cupboard. There is also a separate dual-aspect dining room and a kitchen that connects to a small glazed porch. On the first floor, you'll find three bedrooms along with a two-piece bathroom suite and separate WC. Additional features include cavity wall insulation, double glazing, solar panels, and air conditioning units. The exterior boasts ample driveway space and a detached garage with an adjoining boiler room and glazed room. Although the gardens are overgrown with various trees and shrubs, once cleared, they have the potential to become an attractive outdoor space. Bishop's Stortford offers rich history alongside various shopping, educational, recreational facilities, including highly regarded schools and health services. It also has excellent transport links via mainline rail services to London Liverpool Street and easy access to major road networks like the M11.
