Full Details for 3 Bedroom Semi-Detached for sale in Waltham Abbey, EN9 :
A stunning grade 2 listed character cottage located in the very heart of Waltham abbey's historic town centre. Built circa 1500, this semi detached home is steeped in history with original period features throughout, exposed timber beams and ornate brick fireplaces. The accommodation comprises of two reception rooms, two double bedrooms and an attic room.
South place can be found between Quaker lane and Sun Street, Waltham Abbey's shopping centre and is a small mews of a handful of character properties. Locally, attractions include The Abbey Church and Lea valley with acres of parkland and rivers to explore.
On entering the property you are greeted with a lengthy vestibule and a door that leads you through to the formal dining room. From here you start to appreciate the charm and quirkiness of the house. A multi paned sash window to the front aspect allows plenty of light into the room and an inset fire place with a stone hearth adds a lovely vocal point to the room. From the dining room an opening leads you into the lounge, again with its period sash window. The large working brick built fire place currently has a solid fuel burning stove in place and adds to the cosiness of the room. A large storage cupboard can be found to the left of the fireplace. The room is finished with neutral decoration that goes well with the exposed timber structure in the ceiling.
The kitchen has been sympathetically designed, in keeping with the character of the house. The original timber structure is exposed and a latched timber door allows access to the courtyard garden to the rear. A range of base and wall mounted units provide ample storage and work tops span the length of the room. Space for appliances is provided while items such as the gas oven, hob and overhead extractor fan are inbuilt. Additional storage is catered for by way of a walk in larder/cupboard.
Upstairs both large double bedrooms are accessed from the landing along with the bathroom. The master bedroom has a stunning brick fireplace that mimics that of the lounge.
A huge benefit to the house is the loft room/attic room that is accessed by a small staircase, hidden away behind a cupboard door. Once upstairs the room opens up into a bright loft space (again with exposed timber beams) that would be ideal as a play room or even a home office.
Externally the property has two areas, a courtyard to the rear and a mature country cottage style front garden with a lawned area and well planted borders. The court yard has a brick built structure that houses a shower room to one side and shed storage in the other.
Agents note: A truly unique house that would suite a buyer that appreciates character features and the history that surrounds Waltham Abbey.
