A Storybook Cottage Full of Character 

Owners comments: "From the moment we stepped inside, we knew this was a special place. The double inglenook fireplace gives the cottage so much charm – it’s where we unwind after a long day and where the house really comes to life in winter. We love the feeling of peace and calm here. It’s so easy to shut the door and just switch off, yet we’re only 10 minutes from town, with a new train station, park & ride, and even a bus stop just a short stroll away. London’s within easy reach, but it always feels like we’re miles away in our own little haven. The village is quiet and friendly, with a lovely community feel, great schools, a brilliant pub, and some of the best walks right on our doorstep. We’re also lucky to have a beautiful nature reserve nearby – perfect for weekend walks, spotting wildlife, or just clearing your head. It’s the kind of place that just feels good to come home to."

"Perfect for singles, first-time buyers, couples, or young families seeking something truly special!"

Welcome to Romarys, a charming, Grade II listed two bedroom cottage that blends centuries-old character with modern comfort. Originally part of a historic “long house,” this home has been tastefully modernised and thoughtfully extended, all while celebrating its heritage.

Ground Floor

From the moment you step inside, the warmth and personality of this property are clear. The entrance hall leads into a cosy yet spacious lounge with exposed beams and an impressive inglenook fireplace, home to a wood and coal-burning stove, perfect for winter evenings with a glass of wine or a good book.

Just off the lounge, a study area makes working from home a breeze, while the extended kitchen/breakfast room offers a fresh, welcoming space for morning coffees and weekend brunch. Recently refitted and well-equipped, it opens out to the rear garden for effortless indoor-outdoor living.

Downstairs also features a ground floor bathroom with shower, plus a separate WC – a practical touch for guests and busy households.

First Floor

Upstairs, you’ll find two generous double bedrooms, both with walk-in cupboards, offering comfortable retreats at the end of the day.

Outside

Your own private oasis awaits, a secluded rear garden with both power and water, bordered by mature hedging for complete privacy. There’s convenient rear access via an alleyway leading to an allocated driveway for several cars, along with useful garden and log sheds.

Why you’ll love it here:

Little Waltham is the epitome of an Essex village – steeped in history, surrounded by open countryside, and offering excellent local amenities. You’re just 4 miles from Chelmsford’s vibrant city centre with its shops, restaurants, and fast rail links to London Liverpool Street, while Stansted Airport is just over 14 miles away. Great road connections via the M11, A120, and A12 make this cottage a wonderful base for both work and play.
