Wood End, Widdington, Saffron Walden, Essex, CB11

A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire two charming cottages - The Thatch & Pages is being sold together yet currently held on separate titles. In need of refurbishment inside, the property has recently benefited from a brand new thatched roof and sits within grounds totalling just over a quarter of an acre in a desirable location within Widdington. Subject to the necessary planning permissions, there is potential to create one substantial country residence, making this an ideal project for those seeking to craft a truly special home.

The Thatch is a beautifully characterful Grade II Listed one bedroom cottage set within approximately 0.16 of an acre. Rich in period charm, the accommodation comprises two bedrooms, a cosy lounge, kitchen, and the added benefit of a detached garage. The property’s architectural heritage and newly completed thatch enhance both its aesthetic appeal and long-term preservation.

Pages is an equally charming two-bedroom extended cottage set within approximately 0.13 of an acre, offering further versatility whether retained as a separate dwelling, guest accommodation, or incorporated (subject to permissions) into a larger unified home.

Combined, The Thatch & Pages present a unique and rarely available opportunity - two excellent cottages with individual titles, generous grounds, and outstanding scope to create something truly special.
