Ever dreamed of creating a bespoke family home? Situated in the highly sought-after market town of Waltham Abbey, 174 Crooked Mile is a modern four-bedroom eco house awaiting completion. Guided at £850,000 to £1.1 million (plus fees) in our 11th February auction, this is a standout proposition for investors, developers or owner-occupiers to personalise a stylish property to their own specification.
Modern comfort
Designed with both style and functionality in mind, the house boasts a sleek exterior complemented by expansive windows that flood the interior with natural light.

At its heart is a stunning open-plan kitchen, dining and lounge space. The room showcases floor-to-ceiling sliding glass patio doors that open directly onto the garden, enabling effortless movement between indoors and outdoors. Additional living spaces on the ground floor include a large study and a convenient utility room, all finished in a contemporary design.

Upstairs, four spacious bedrooms provide ample storage and comfort, perfect for family life or hosting visitors.
Outside, 174 Crooked Mile has a generous garden with both lawned and patio areas, ideal for entertaining. Adding to its appeal is a private outdoor swimming pool within an enclosure, allowing for year-round enjoyment.

Sustainable living
The property is equipped with an impressive range of eco-friendly features designed to maximise energy efficiency and minimise running costs. These include solar panels, a private borehole water supply with on-site filtration, underfloor heating throughout and a highly insulated wall system that can reduce heating demand by up to 80%.
Additional benefits include heat-reflective glass windows, integrated blinds, instant hot water circulation to all taps and dimmable LED lighting throughout. The home is also fully networked with Cat 6 cabling and a comprehensive Wi-Fi system for excellent connectivity.

Creative potential
While largely complete, some areas of the property remain unfinished, presenting a unique chance for buyers to personalise key aspects of the home. Its generous footprint, state-of-the-art design and high-quality fixtures provide a strong foundation, making it particularly attractive to developers, investors or anyone seeking a rewarding project with scope to create a truly individual home.

Perfectly positioned
174 Crooked Mile occupies a highly desirable spot in Waltham Abbey, a charming traditional market town in Essex. There are excellent transport links, making London and other major cities easily accessible. The property is also perfectly placed to explore the town’s rich heritage and natural beauty. Waltham Abbey Church, one of England’s oldest and most significant religious buildings, lies close by, displaying stunning architecture, intricate carvings and breathtaking stained-glass windows.
Nature enthusiasts will appreciate the proximity to Lee Valley Country Park and Epping Forest, which provides excellent opportunities for walking, cycling and wildlife spotting.
An exciting opportunity
Simon Mellish, Regional Manager and Auctioneer at Auction House East Anglia commented: “This is a rare opportunity to secure a future-ready home that blends contemporary style, sustainability and real potential for personalisation.”
