Description

This detached character house presents a unique investment opportunity in the picturesque village of Margaret Roding, located in the Uttlesford district of Essex. Dating back to the 18th century, this residence features original beams that reflect its historical charm. Set on approximately one acre with lovely farmland views, there is ample potential for extension subject to obtaining planning permission, making it ideal for those looking to increase living space or value. The internal layout includes a welcoming porch and hallway leading to a dining room and a spacious lounge equipped with a feature fireplace, perfect for creating an inviting atmosphere. The kitchen/breakfast room and utility area offer practical living options, while the first floor boasts four generously sized double bedrooms along with a bathroom and separate WC. Externally, access is provided by a sweeping driveway that leads to a double garage constructed in 1972. This property has previously undergone underpinning due to subsidence issues, which could require further attention but also demonstrates attention to structural safety. Investing in this property could yield significant returns with thoughtful renovations and enhancements.
