Chipping Hill, Witham, CM8

The Property
Nestled in the highly sought-after Chipping Hill conservation area, renowned for its strong sense of community and easy access to amenities, The Old House blends history and modern living. Dating back to C1600, with sympathetic extensions, this beautifully maintained Grade II listed property offers character and charm alongside contemporary conveniences.

The downstairs comprises a cosy living room with exposed beams, brickwork, and a working open fireplace, plus a second reception room, currently used as a children's playroom but equally suited as a dining room. The kitchen diner features bespoke shaker-style cabinetry, crafted by renowned local makers Humphrey Munson, an electric Aga and underfloor heating. A welcome addition is the striking sunroom with double-height ceiling adding further light and space.

Upstairs, there are three generous double bedrooms, including a master bedroom with a walk-in wardrobe and attic access. Bedrooms two and three feature built-in wardrobes and charming open fireplaces (not in use). The stylish bathroom includes a clawfoot bath, waterfall shower and underfloor heating.

The truly wonderful south-facing garden, complete with a well-appointed garden office, offers a tranquil retreat and an exceptional outdoor living space. Set on 0.41 acres, the plot includes a double garage and three additional parking spaces. A large patio with a wisteria adorned pergola, provides outdoor dining and seating areas. There are two sheds, a greenhouse and a vegetable patch. Beyond a garden gate lies another large area with a fire pit and fruit trees. The River Brain forms the southern boundary.

Ideally located just 300m from Witham train station, offering regular fast trains to London, this home suits commuters and homeworkers alike. The characterful high street is accessed via a 10 minute stroll along Witham’s beautiful River Walk.

A rare opportunity to own a unique and characterful home in a prime location.
