Description

This historic semi-detached cottage, dating back to the 17th century, stands on a generous plot of approximately 0.46 acres adjacent to Navestock Heath. While the property requires modernisation, it presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment given its size and prime location with sweeping views over the Roding Valley. The central entrance hall invites you into the home, featuring a staircase leading to the first floor and access to a ground floor shower room. To one side, the kitchen runs the entire depth of the house, equipped with Shaker-style timber cabinetry and contrasting work surfaces; however, appliances are included as is and have not been tested for functionality. On the opposite side lies a lounge/dining room that benefits from picturesque garden views. Upstairs, three bedrooms are accompanied by a cloakroom, each offering stunning countryside vistas. Outside, one can enjoy a large front garden bordered by mature hedging and two entrances for parking and pedestrian access respectively. The property is connected to mains water and electricity, oil-fired heating, while private drainage will be upgraded prior to completion in summer 2026. As this is a listed building under charity governance by The Church Commissioners, potential buyers should be aware of specific reservations regarding future development on the site.
