Description

This two-bedroom Victorian cottage in Lower Wivenhoe presents an appealing opportunity for first-time buyers or investors seeking potential. Currently occupied until early June, this property is poised for a new owner without a lengthy chain. The open-plan lounge and dining area is bright, enhanced by natural light from both front and rear windows, and includes convenient storage solutions. The kitchen and bathroom, situated at the back of the house, are functional but would benefit from a light refurbishment to modernize their appeal. A south-facing garden offers a lovely space for outdoor gatherings during the summer months. Located just a short walk from local amenities including shops, the Quay, bus routes, and the train station, this property also falls within the catchment area for Millfields Primary School. With its traditional charm and prime location, this cottage has significant potential for renovation and enhancement.
