Avenue Road, Witham, CM8

Part of our Signature collection, this Victorian detached house is located in one of Witham’s most prestige areas and boasts four bedrooms and three reception rooms. The property retains a wealth of character and period charm, offering generous accommodation finished to a high specification.

This exceptional family home is accessed via a part-glazed front door, which leads to the porch and grand entrance hall. Stairs rise to the first floor and there is a ground floor cloakroom, with solid wood flooring which continues through into the lounge and dining room.

The impressive sitting room measures 22' 3 by 11'11 and features a sash window and bay sash window to the front aspect, with the open fireplace creating an attractive focal point for the room. The dining room is used by the current owners as a snug, or further reception room, with another open fireplace, storage cupboard and sash window to the sunroom.

The sunroom is a cleverly crafted addition which forms the centrepiece of this home. Currently utilised for dining, it is a great space for entertaining, with the glass atrium providing an abundance of light and French doors leading out to the garden. A door from here leads to the ground floor shower room, handy utility room and a storage area.

The spacious kitchen/breakfast room is a great size, with four windows and French doors allowing plenty of light. There are a range of tasteful eye and base level units inset into work surfaces with ample space for an island and seating area, with spotlights above. There is an integrated eye-level oven, five ring gas hob with extractor above, and space for appliances.

The split-level landing provides access to all first floor accommodation, with each of the bedrooms benefitting from feature fireplaces. The principal bedroom has a sash bay window to the front aspect and built-in wardrobes, whilst the remaining three bedrooms are of a good size. The family bathroom comprises a panel bath and shower above, with windows to the side and rear aspect.
