Little Hallingbury Mill
by Paul Collins
Little Hallingbury, a sought-after village just south of Bishop’s Stortford, offers a mix of traditional cottages, period farmhouses, and modern family homes, particularly along Lower Road, Wrights Green Lane, and Hatfield Broad Oak Road.
Many of the older properties are listed and retain historic features such as timber frames, thatched or tiled roofs, and exposed beams, all of which require specialist upkeep.
Rural homes in the area may also rely on private drainage or oil-fired heating, both of which should be carefully assessed as part of a survey.
With easy access to the M11, Stansted Airport, and Bishop’s Stortford station for direct services into London Liverpool Street, Little Hallingbury is well connected while maintaining a strong rural charm.
The village also benefits from proximity to Hatfield Forest and local pubs, making it a desirable location for families and professionals.
Our RICS-qualified surveyors provide detailed, impartial reports whether you’re purchasing a historic cottage or a modern property in this popular village.
