Rectory Lane, Rivenhall, CM8

Unlisted period farmhouse with a detached double garage with accommodation above and set within just over 0.4 acre plot(STLS) just over a mile from Witham Station.


Glebe Farmhouse is a handsome period property. Charm is on offer in each room with heavy exposed beams, fireplaces and handmade timber windows. The accommodation has a well balanced layout with a central hall that opens through to a lovely living room with a central fireplace and a dual aspect. Opposite the living room is the multi-functional kitchen family room, a spacious room with exposed timbers and open fireplace with log burner. The kitchen area is fitted with solid wood units complimenting the property and quality integrated appliances. There is plenty of room for a family dining table along with a sofa arrangement. A useful pantry provides excellent storage, and a utility cloakroom hides the washing machine out of sight.

The staircase leads up to a bright landing space where the current owners have utilised the space by adding a study area. There are three well appointed bedrooms, each offering a view across the front garden. There is a generous principal bedroom with en-suite shower room and dressing room along with two further double bedrooms. The family bathroom has a bath with shower above, vanity unit with hand basin and a window to the rear aspect.

The property is approached via a single track from Rectory Lane and upon arriving at the gates you will immediately be struck by the sense of space on offer within the grounds. A gravelled drive sweeps past the house and leads to the double garage. Above the garage is additional accommodation and this includes a bedroom with balcony overlooking the grounds of The Old Rectory, a kitchenette within the landing, wet room and a large office with glazed wall overlooking parts of the grounds of Glebe Farm House. In all there is 0.4 acres (STLS) of gardens that offer a lovely private space to relax. The front garden is divided by a mature hedge further enhancing the privacy within the grounds. Whilst standing in the gardens, you get a real sense of peace and quiet, a rare feature for a property located so close to amenities such as a train station, good schools, and a thriving High Street.
