Description

Oak Cottage is an enchanting Grade II listed property, which has been sympathetically refurbished over the last few years. The property is thought to date from around the 17th century and features timber framing with plastered elevations, while inside there are exposed timber beams and original brick fireplaces alongside elegant, understated modern décor and styling. Set within the small yet well-connected hamlet of North End, it lies three miles from Great Dunmow and 1.4 miles from Felsted School.

The main reception room is located at the front of the home, with its two bay windows welcoming plenty of natural light, as well as timber beams overhead and the impressive brick-built inglenook fireplaces. There is also a useful study for home working, while the southfacing conservatory provides further space in which to relax and take in views across the sunny South East facing garden. The recently refurbished boot room and bathroom are located to the west side. A recently updated open-plan kitchen and dining area measures 29ft and features a beautifully appointed kitchen with fitted units, a pantry and integrated appliances by Neff. The social, open layout also includes a dining area in a modern extension, with a vaulted ceiling, exposed timber beams and French doors opening onto the garden. One double bedroom with a dressing area and en suite shower room is located on the ground floor, with a Juliet balcony providing splendid views across the garden. Stairs lead to the lower level, where there is a further double bedroom with a dressing area and modern en suite bathroom, as well as bi-fold doors opening onto the sunken courtyard area. The wine cellar is also located on this level which is climate controlled via an air conditioning unit.

The first floor provides a further three well-presented bedrooms, including the generous principal bedroom with its built-in wardrobes and recently installed en suite bathroom. The first floor also has a WC and an attic store, while the modern family bathroom is located on the ground level.

The property is set within delightful and beautifully maintained gardens to both the front and rear. At the front there are pristine lawns bordered by hedgerows and dotted with various mature trees, with a new shingle driveway laid to the front with granite sets around the border. This driveway provides ample off road parking and potential for a cart lodge (subject to planning and listed buildings approval). The additional driveway to the side offers separate access to the Essex T- Barn, which subject to planning, offers potential for residential conversion or garaging. The historical outbuilding located within the grounds has undergone restoration in recent years and the current configuration is arranged with a bedroom, bathroom and sitting room. This building offers further potential, again, subject to the relevant planning permissions. The garden at the rear is southeastfacing and includes a patio area for al fresco dining, raised beds for vegetable growing, a greenhouse and a pond as well as extensive level lawns, bordered by established shrubs, hedgerows and flowering perennials.
