Bentfield Causeway, Stansted, CM24
A beautifully curated two-bedroom character cottage, believed to date from 1869, set in a sought after position within the heart of Stansted and defined by colour, texture and thoughtful design.
Interiors are rich with personality, blending original features with a confident use of colour and carefully layered finishes. Reclaimed timber floors — salvaged from a former Norfolk boarding school — sit alongside exposed brickwork, stripped beams and a log-burning stove, creating warmth and authenticity throughout. The house has been comprehensively improved in recent years, including a new kitchen (2024), bathroom (2025) and boiler (2022), alongside updated electrics, replastering and bespoke internal storage.
Upstairs, two bedrooms offer a calm and characterful retreat, with recently replaced carpets and a cohesive decorative scheme continuing the home’s considered feel.
Outside, the south-facing garden has been thoughtfully cleared and replanted, now home to peonies, roses, hydrangeas, lavender and verbena through the seasons. A detached studio, constructed in 2022 and professionally soundproofed, provides a flexible space for home working or creative use.
A charming village cottage where heritage, craftsmanship and modern comfort sit comfortably together.
