Rye Street, Bishop's Stortford, Hertfordshire

An immaculately presented and thoughtfully upgraded three-bedroom semi-detached home, ideally positioned on the ever-popular Rye Street in Bishop’s Stortford, just a short walk from the town centre with driveway parking.

Set in an elevated position off Rye Street, this attractive 1930s home enjoys a prominent yet private feel, combining period charm with modern convenience. The current owners have invested significantly in improving and enhancing the property, creating a true turnkey home ready for its next chapter.

Internally, the accommodation is arranged over two floors. The property opens into a welcoming dining room with feature fireplace, setting the tone for the character retained throughout. To the front, the attractive living room benefits from a beautiful bay window overlooking Rye Street and greenery beyond, along with its own fireplace, creating a cosy yet elegant reception space. To the rear, the heart of the home is a bright and spacious kitchen / breakfast room, fitted with integrated appliances, under-unit lighting and an abundance of natural light from multiple windows and double doors opening directly onto the garden. The glass roof has recently been replaced, further enhancing the light-filled feel of this space. A stylish four-piece family bathroom completes the ground floor, featuring a newly installed suite and skylight.

Upstairs, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom enjoys an original fireplace, fitted wardrobe and elevated views across Rye Street and beyond. A further staircase leads to a boarded and lit attic room with windows already in place, offering exciting potential as a future fourth bedroom, home office or hobby space, subject to any necessary consents.

The improvements made by the current owners provide genuine peace of mind. These include full re-rendering for a crisp modern finish, replacement of the roof to both front and rear including guttering, a new front door and porch, bespoke shutters throughout, new flooring and carpets including runners to hallways and stairs, a replaced glass roof to the kitchen, new radiators in all rooms, a new bathroom suite with skylight and a recently installed boiler.

Outside, the property boasts a superb 130-foot west-facing rear garden, unoverlooked and offering a high degree of privacy. With newly installed fencing to both sides, a patio area directly accessed from the kitchen, a generous lawn and a summerhouse / shed to the rear, it is a wonderful space to enjoy afternoon and evening sun. There is handy driveway parking to the front aspect and side access to the rear garden too.

The location is a key feature. Rye Street is well regarded and conveniently positioned within walking distance of Bishop’s Stortford town centre and mainline railway station. Grange Paddocks leisure centre and open spaces are close by, as are Northgate Primary School, local cricket and tennis clubs and a number of excellent walking routes, making this an ideal setting for families and professionals alike.

A beautifully maintained home in a prime location, offering character, space and modern comfort in equal measure.
