Wave Cottage – A Unique & Historic Home in Prime Old Moulsham Location

Dating back to 1847, Wave Cottage is a truly one-of-a-kind property that beautifully blends historic charm with modern versatility. Originally believed to be a pair of semi-detached homes, it has been thoughtfully reconfigured to accommodate multi-generational living while retaining its period character.

One of the standouts features of this home is its generously sized rooms with impressively high ceilings, true to the architectural style of its era. These grand proportions create a wonderful sense of space and light throughout the home.

While the property is clean and tidy, it does require some modernisation and general improvements throughout, making it a fantastic opportunity for those looking to put their own stamp on a historic home. With some updates, it has the potential to become the perfect family residence.

The accommodation includes:

• First Floor: Three spacious bedrooms, a family bathroom, and a fully equipped kitchen.

• Ground Floor: An additional bedroom with an en-suite, a large kitchen/breakfast room, a separate dining room, and a generous living room.

• Basement: A versatile space that can be used for storage, a home cinema, games room, or playroom.

Throughout the property, you’ll find original character features, adding to its charm and warmth. While not a listed property, Wave Cottage is a rare opportunity to own a home rich in history, with endless potential for a growing family or an investment opportunity such as an HMO.

Externally, the home benefits from a gated driveway – a highly sought-after feature in this prime location, just a stone’s throw from Moulsham Street. Please note that part of the land has been sold off previously, and while the garages to the rear are not included in the sale, there is a small private garden area at the rear of the hallway.

Offered with no onward chain, this is a truly special property that must be viewed in person to be fully appreciated. Whether you’re searching for a characterful family home or a fantastic investment opportunity, Wave Cottage presents an exciting chance to renovate and enhance a unique home in the heart of Chelmsford.
