Description

This beautifully presented 1930s semi detached home blends period charm with carefully considered modern upgrades, creating a refined yet welcoming living space. Arranged over two floors, the property offers three generous bedrooms, two stylish bathrooms, and an additional ground floor WC, providing excellent flexibility for modern family life.

A thoughtfully added ground-floor office extension enhances the layout further, offering an ideal space for home working, a studio, or a quiet retreat, perfectly complementing the character and flow of the original home.

At the heart of the home is a stunning kitchen designed for both everyday living and entertaining. Finished with quartz worktops and underfloor heating, it features Miele ovens, a Bosch hob, an Elica extraction hood, and a high quality Vaillant combi boiler. Porcelain tiled flooring, Roca sinks, classic style radiators, and discreet timed lighting enhance the sense of understated luxury, while a water softener system adds further practicality. Throughout the home, aluminium doors with Balham locks, elegant shutters by Stortford Blinds, and a tasteful mix of brass and black fittings reflect the attention to detail found in every room.

The living accommodation is complemented by two fully working fireplaces, both meticulously maintained, adding warmth and character. The bathrooms are equally impressive, each fitted with Crosswater M Pro fittings and showers, with the principal bathroom featuring a striking Bette bath with a concealed overflow tap. Newly installed windows, a boarded loft, and premium quality carpets complete the picture, making this a home that is as comfortable as it is stylish.

The property is ideally positioned on the sought after north west side of town, offering an excellent balance of convenience and green surroundings. Woodland and parkland walks are within easy walking distance, providing a peaceful retreat close to home. Highly regarded schools including Northgate Primary School and Bishop’s Stortford College are nearby, along with a range of independent shops, cafés, and restaurants along North Street.

Bishop’s Stortford town centre is easily accessible, offering a vibrant mix of shopping, dining, and public houses, as well as both state and private schooling options. The main line railway station is approximately a 25 minute walk away, providing direct services to London Liverpool Street and Cambridge.

For those with an active lifestyle, the area benefits from nearby cricket, rugby, hockey, and tennis clubs, including well maintained pitches and courts close by. Road connections are equally convenient, with the M11 Junction 8 around four miles away and Stansted International Airport approximately five miles away.

The property is connected to mains drainage, gas central heating, electricity, and mains water, ensuring all essential services are in place. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a characterful yet highly specified home in one of the town’s most desirable locations.

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.
