Description

BEING OFFERED WITH NO ONWARD CHAIN.

Located in the most idyllic of positions, enjoying open views to three of the elevations, across the surrounding Essex countryside is this wonderfully maintained and much enhanced Country home, sitting on a plot of 3 acres (stls). Situated on the edge of the village of Roxwell and being only a short drive from the centre of Chelmsford with its thriving City status, mainline rail links and well-respected secondary schooling. The home dates back in part some 300 years and whilst much of its original character has been maintained, the home over the years has been remodelled and enhanced by its current custodians to create this beautiful white weather boarded family home with the added benefit of a detached one-bedroom annexe and double car port parking.

Gated access leads you into a vast shingled driveway with parking for numerous vehicles and access into the abutting paddock area. The pleasing façade of the home belies the interesting characterful interior. A wonderful spacious reception vestibule with wood flooring and inset log burning stove creates an appropriate entrance to the home, off which is a convenient ground floor cloakroom. Braced and latched doors continue throughout, together with appropriate cast iron radiators sit perfect against the part beamed interior. The home flows naturally into a large part open plan living area with the continuation of hardwood flooring and restored beams create a natural divide between a formal dining area and a beautiful sitting area with feature exposed red brick fireplace and inset wood burning stove. Leading from here is the Snug, perfectly sited off the kitchen/breakfast room and a great reading nook.

The kitchen/breakfast room has been fitted with an extensive range of bespoke high-quality wall and base units, highlighted by solid wood worksurfaces, incorporating a series of appliances including a Range oven. The natural stone style tiled floor continues into the utility/pantry which offers further fitted storage opportunities and plumbing for laundry appliances. Overlooking the gardens this is truly the ideal spot for breakfasting and enjoying the wonderful views.

To the first floor the home continues to entice, with two double bedrooms, the principal bedroom having both a dressing area and a large en-suite shower room with walk in shower. Bedroom two is served by a well-appointed four-piece family bathroom designed to create a spa like atmosphere with a multi-jet shower enclosure. From the landing area a door leads onto a wonderful roof terrace with spiral staircase leading to the garden. This is truly the perfect early evening spot to admire the land and the tranquillity of the setting. To the second floor there is a further bedroom area and dressing room/study. The gardens have been beautifully landscaped in-keeping with both its setting and indeed character of the home. A large natural stone style paved patio is ideally located to enjoy the views across the paddock and blends effortlessly by way of a reclaimed red brick pathway into a drystone garden and to the detached annexe. Again, well-appointed with a good size kitchen/sitting room with double doors onto the patio as well as a door to the side garden. The bedroom is also of good size with an adjacent shower room. There is also a Summerhouse which is being used as home office and looks out over the Paddock. The paddocks have post and rail fencing and there are two field shelters.

Without question a beautiful character home set within an unspoilt yet convenient location which needs to be viewed to appreciate the size and level of accommodation on offer.
