Widford Road, Much Hadham

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a delightful country cottage, sitting on a generous plot of around 0.17 acre with views over some of East Hertfordshire's most beautiful countryside from most aspects.

Located just on the outskirts of the highly sought after village of Much Hadham, this traditional three-bedroom home has been loved, cared for and in the same family ownership for over 30 years.
Work has just been carried out to replace the septic tank and the combination boiler was replaced in April 2025, giving an incoming buyer peace of mind.

The property benefits from attractive timber latch doors, oil fired central heating, an ‘Everhot 100i’ range cooker, open fireplace to the sitting room, plenty of natural light from Upvc double glazed windows and good ceiling height that is not often found in older cottages.

The accommodation comprises: Entrance hall, guest cloakroom/w.c., sitting room, generous kitchen/dining room, large dual aspect principal bedroom with Juliette balcony, two further generous bedrooms and a family bathroom.

A gravel driveway to the front provides off road parking which in turn leads to the detached garage.

Village amenities include an excellent nursery and primary school, health centre, public house, village shop, recreation grounds and parish church. For the golfing enthusiast, Ash Valley Golf Club is approximately a mile away.

The market towns of Ware and Bishop’s Stortford are a short drive away and offer secondary schooling, a diverse variety of shops and sporting facilities. Main line railway stations are available at Hertford, Ware, Harlow and Bishops Stortford.
