A beautifully extended Victorian cottage on one of Bishop’s Stortford’s most desirable roads, offering stylish modern living, private parking and views across open greenery, all just a short walk from the town centre, North Street and the mainline station.
Barrells Down Road sits on the highly regarded North West side of Bishop’s Stortford, an area long admired for its tree-lined roads, period homes and easy access to both the town centre and mainline railway station. The location is particularly sought after for those looking to enjoy a blend of convenience and community, with Northgate Primary School and Bishop’s Stortford College nearby, along with the restaurants, cafés and independent shops of North Street just a short stroll away. The town’s well-regarded sports clubs – including cricket, rugby, hockey and tennis – are also within easy reach, as is the station with direct links into Cambridge, Stansted Airport, Tottenham Hale and London Liverpool Street.
The home itself is a beautifully extended and modernised Victorian cottage, thoughtfully improved to a high standard throughout. Set back behind an attractive, landscaped front garden, the property opens into a welcoming porch before flowing into a light and airy open-plan living and dining space. A large front window frames views across the green and towards the cricket ground beyond, while the layout has been designed with modern living in mind, combining elegant décor with warm character. Underfloor heating runs through the ground floor, enhancing comfort and creating an inviting atmosphere.
The dining area leads through to a stylish kitchen/breakfast room, fitted with contemporary cabinetry and generous storage. An open feature between the dining area and kitchen allows the two spaces to connect seamlessly, creating an ideal environment for hosting and sociable day-to-day living. From here, double doors lead directly out to the private rear garden – a lovely spot for morning coffee, evening relaxation or al-fresco dining in the warmer months. The garden itself has been thoughtfully landscaped and also provides access to the property’s off-road parking space via a rear gate.
Upstairs continues the sense of space and quality, featuring two well-proportioned double bedrooms and a beautifully finished family bathroom. Skylights on the landing and in the bathroom draw in additional natural light, enhancing the bright and uplifting feel of the home. The principal bedroom enjoys charming elevated views across the greenery and towards the cricket grounds, offering a real highlight of this position.
This is a rarely available opportunity to secure a Victorian home in a highly desirable location, refurbished and curated with real care. Viewing is strongly recommended.
