Description

Nestled in the heart of Sawbridgeworth Town centre, this delightful Grade II Listed weatherboarded cottage is a rare gem. Boasting three bedrooms and an array of period features, the cottage offers a perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience. Ideally situated within walking distance to all local amenities, including shops, highly-regarded primary and senior schools, cafes, pubs, and a mainline train station with direct services to London Liverpool Street and Cambridge, this home provides an exceptional lifestyle.

The cottage features a spacious living room with two front aspect sash windows, a red brick fireplace with a raised hearth, and built-in shelving, creating a warm and inviting space. The study/office, with views of the garden, offers a quiet retreat for work or leisure. The dining room, with its vaulted ceiling, exposed timbers, and cast iron arched fireplace, is perfect for family gatherings. The bespoke distressed solid Oak kitchen, complete with integrated Neff appliances and a vaulted ceiling, overlooks the beautiful rear garden.

Upstairs, the cottage offers three well-appointed bedrooms, each with its own unique features. The master bedroom includes a sash window, cast iron fireplace, and loft access. The second bedroom features a built-in cupboard with a period door, while the third bedroom, currently used as a dressing room, offers additional flexibility.

The exterior of the property is equally impressive. The large ‘L’ shaped garden, measuring 100ft by 60ft, is a standout feature. It includes an Indian sandstone patio, extensive lawn, herbaceous borders, and a vegetable garden, all surrounded by quality wooden fencing. Historically part of the Sawbridgeworth Orchards, the garden boasts established fruit trees, including pear, damson, apple, and cherry. A former apple sorting shed, with power and water supply, provides additional space for storage or a home office.

At the front, the property features a parking area for two cars, a brick pathway leading to the front door, and a charming white picket fence. The spacious entrance hall, with its period door, sash window, and brick fireplace, sets the tone for the rest of the house, combining traditional features with modern comfort.

The ground floor bathroom, with a freestanding claw and ball bath, and the first-floor shower room, with a fully tiled shower cubicle, add to the cottage's appeal. Both rooms are tastefully decorated to complement the property's historic character.

This enchanting cottage, with its unique blend of period charm and modern amenities, is a must-see. An internal viewing is essential to fully appreciate the character and beauty of this exceptional home.

About Muvin, Powered by eXp, Herts, Sawbridgeworth

25 Bell Street, Sawbridgeworth, CM21 9AR

Muvin – A Fresh Approach to Moving Homes

Our mission is to elevate the standard of estate agency by delivering a superior experience for sellers while empowering our partner agents to build fulfilling, prosperous lives. Through better service and meaningful support, we raise the bar for everyone involved in a move.

Founded in 2025 by Adam Mackay and Jamie Fisher, who share over 40 years of local experience, Muvin brings together two sets of partner agents under one brand with one clear vision.

We’re a collective of like-minded partner agents and property marketeers, all working together with the same outlook and mindset: to make your move smoother, smarter, and more successful. Between us, we’ve helped thousands of families move locally — and our track record of results means you can trust us to deliver.

Every home has its own story, and we’re here to tell it in the most compelling way. Through creative video marketing, thoughtful staging advice, and personalised viewings, we showcase what makes your property unique, helping it stand out and attract the right buyers.

We don’t just rely on portals. Our marketing support team drives targeted digital campaigns, social media reach, brochure creation and community projects — ensuring your home is seen by the widest possible audience of qualified buyers.

We’re also heavily focused on helping buyers find their perfect next home, guiding them with honest advice, local knowledge, and a personal approach that makes the journey exciting and stress-free. We take pride in sourcing off-market and discreet opportunities, because not every home sells on the open market.

Our values are simple: be driven, be connected, be proud. That means we work harder, communicate better, and never forget we’re representing your biggest move.

Our collaborative approach means you get the power of a whole team behind you, focused on achieving the best possible result for your move. Backed by eXp – a global network of more than 85,000 agents, we combine local expertise across Essex and Hertfordshire with worldwide reach.

Whether you’re selling a one-of-a-kind home or searching for your next chapter, we’d love to help.

Let’s get you moving — with Muvin.
