Description

Thought to date back to the 18th Century, Villa Farm offers plenty of scope to create a stunning four bedroom family home set in a plot of approximately 7 acres.

Coming to the market for the first time in over 70 years, this unlisted property requires modernisation and benefits from numerous outbuildings which could be ideal for storage, equestrian use or provide potential for re-development, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Villa Farm is perfectly placed for practical living, located on the outskirts of Tiptree in a semi-rural setting and offering plenty of potential to prospective purchasers.

A central front door leads to the entrance hall, with stairs rising to the first floor and a door through to the main reception room which is currently used as the sitting room. There is a bay window to the front, fireplace and door providing access to the kitchen/breakfast room. This generously proportioned room is at the centre of the home and has a working Aga, with windows to the rear and doors leading to the utility room, dining room and out to the rear garden. There are three handy outbuildings which are easily accessible from the kitchen and ideal for storage.

The dining room features a bay window to the front with an exposed red brick inglenook fireplace with a door leading into a further reception room. This benefits from a dual aspect and has been used as a ground floor bedroom, with direct access to a bathroom. The property also has a small but perfectly formed basement which could also be used for storage.

The first floor landing gives access to four good size bedrooms and a half bathroom. Bedrooms one and two are set to the front of the property, both with glazed windows allowing an abundance of natural light. The second bedroom has a good size storage area which could be utilised as a dressing room and the third and fourth bedrooms are to the rear. The first floor concludes with the half bathroom, which currently has a wash hand basin and wc with space for a bath/shower.

Outbuildings
Villa Farm benefits from an extensive array of outbuildings, some of which have structural issues but offer potential for a multitude of uses, subject to planning.

Outside
The formal side and rear gardens are predominantly laid to lawn with a variety of mature shrubs and trees enclosed by hedging. The courtyard offers ample parking and gives access some of the immediate outbuildings.

The paddocks to the side are ideal for grazing and total approximately 6 acres, there is also vehicular access which is ideal for equestrian use. Immediately opposite Villa Farm there is a separate paddock, again mainly laid to lawn, which is perfect for grazing or could present a development opportunity, subject to the necessary planning consents.
