Garage Conversions in Waltham Cross
A town on the Hertfordshire and Essex border beside the River Lea, best known for the medieval Eleanor Cross. Waltham Cross has Victorian terraces near the centre and a lot of 1930s and post-war housing, sitting between Cheshunt and Waltham Abbey beside the River Lea.
Interwar houses often have a side or integral garage that suits a conversion into a room. Interwar semis and detached houses frequently have hipped roofs and reasonable ridge heights, which gives a surveyor more design options than a typical modern roof. We offer a free survey and a clear written quote from the start.
