Set within a quiet residential cul-de-sac just a short walk from Bishop’s Stortford’s mainline station and vibrant town centre, this beautifully presented 1930s semi-detached home has been stylishly upgraded throughout by the current owners. It’s an ideal choice for commuters and anyone looking for a character property with modern comforts and excellent access to everything the town has to offer.

The home opens with a useful porch area that leads into an impressive open-plan living and dining room. This wonderful space, measuring approximately 3.5m x 7.8m, features a window to the front aspect, a restored period fireplace and an exposed brick archway leading into the kitchen. Thoughtful redecoration, new flooring and the careful preservation of original features create a warm, inviting feel perfect for everyday living and entertaining.

The kitchen itself is modern and well arranged, with fitted units and a window overlooking the private rear garden. A door leads through to the conservatory, currently used as a study/playroom, with double doors opening directly onto the garden and a further connection back into the living/dining room. Upstairs, the home offers two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom is a generous 3.6m x 4.1m, complete with a feature fireplace, while the second overlooks the rear garden. A large family bathroom with built-in storage and a window completes the first floor.

Outside, the west-facing rear garden provides a brilliant low-maintenance space with decking for al-fresco dining and artificial lawn beyond. At the far end sits a versatile studio garden room with a sound-proofed section, lobby area and sliding doors to a larger workspace. The internal partition could easily be removed to create a full-size garden room, ideal for working from home, a hobby space or a games room.

Industry affiliations:

Founded by Jack Willmott and Adam Lake with a vision to running an independently owned business that combines our traditional hard-working ethic with a modern, forward-thinking approach.

We believe that while working with our clients, offering a set service or a 'one size fits all' approach is unrealistic, as each client leads a different life. Because of this, our business is built to offer a personal, bespoke service tailored to what each individual client(s) wants and needs.

We are committed to delivering unparalleled customer service and implementing cutting-edge marketing strategies, but above all, we prioritise building lasting relationships with our clients.

At Willmott & Lake, we are pioneers who constantly challenge the status quo. We understand that the quality of our work eclipses the quantity, and our approach reflects our core belief that integrity and excellence should always come first.

As a premium independent agency, our sole focus is on achieving the best outcomes for our clients while surpassing expectations through honesty, professionalism and local knowledge.

In the competitive property market, it's essential for your property to distinguish itself from the rest and attract the interest of potential buyers or tenants. Our team comprises not just salespeople but also marketing experts dedicated to showcasing properties effectively.

Buying or selling a property is a significant life decision, and we honour the trust our clients place in us by providing unparalleled advice, service, and communication throughout the entire process.

Every client interaction, every property transaction becomes part of our narrative, contributing to the legacy we are building based on trust and value. We take a fresh, personalised approach to each engagement, ensuring that all clients feel supported, stress-free, and well-informed throughout the process.

For us, it's more than just a move; it's a transformative event that deserves the utmost attention and care.

At the heart of our journey lies our core values: People, Property, Partnerships. With each transaction, we strive to not only meet but exceed expectations, forging strong connections and building lasting relationships along the way.

As we continue to evolve and grow, our pledge remains unchanged: to put your needs first, guiding you through every step of your property journey with care and expertise.

Together, let's shape the future - one property, one partnership at a time.
