Description
A Five-Century English Home - For Its Next Custodian
Tucked away in the Essex countryside, this extraordinary Grade II listed thatched cottage, believed to date back to circa 1475, offers a rare opportunity to become the custodian of over 500 years of English rural history.
Set within approximately two acres of private grounds, this four-bedroom detached home is not simply a property to be occupied, but a lifestyle to be embraced. Original features typical of its era remain proudly on display, from exposed beams and period fireplaces to the natural charm and character that only centuries of living can create. Every room tells a quiet story, blending historic craftsmanship with the comforts required for modern country living.
The surrounding land provides a sense of seclusion and possibility - whether enjoyed as tranquil gardens, rewilded meadows, or space for outdoor pursuits - all sheltered by mature boundaries and far removed from the pace of modern life.
From your doorstep, a quiet lane leads directly onto a network of historic Essex footpaths and bridleways — perfect for peaceful countryside walks, dog-walking, exploring fields and woodlands, or simply breathing the fresh air. For those seeking longer strolls or weekend countryside adventures, well-known local walks such as the Great Dunmow Circular are easily reachable by car
Homes of this age and quality rarely come to market. Designed for those who value authenticity over perfection, heritage over convenience, and privacy over proximity, this is a home that chooses its owner as much as the owner chooses it.
This is not a home for everyone - and that is precisely what makes it so special.
