Wood End Green, Henham, Bishop's Stortford, CM22

Dating back approximately 500 years, Badgers Cottage is an enchanting semi-detached period home occupying an idyllic semi-rural setting in the sought-after Wood End Green. Although rich in historic character, the property is not listed, offering greater flexibility for future alterations, subject to the necessary consents.

The beautifully presented accommodation extends to approximately 1,634 sq ft and displays an abundance of original features, including exposed timber framing and beams, latch doors and an impressive brick fireplace within the welcoming reception room.

The ground floor comprises a generous kitchen, reception room, dining room/occasional third bedroom, shower room and a spacious hall currently used as a home office. A light-filled conservatory overlooks and opens onto the garden.

Upstairs are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, a family bathroom and a third bedroom currently a generous walk-in wardrobe, providing excellent storage.

Badgers Cottage is approached through a gated entrance leading to extensive driveway parking. The established grounds extend to approximately half an acre and provide an exceptional degree of privacy, with sweeping lawns, mature trees, well-stocked borders and several areas for outdoor dining and entertaining.

A substantial detached cart lodge has a large room above, currently used as an office/gym. Together, these provide exciting potential for conversion into an annexe, guest accommodation or a dedicated home-working space, subject to planning and building regulations. There is also a separate workshop incorporating storage and potting areas.

This is a rare opportunity to acquire a truly individual country cottage combining considerable age and character with extensive grounds, versatile outbuildings and outstanding future potential.
