Highfields, Great Dunmow, CM6

A Timeless 1930s Detached Home with Modern Elegance – Chain Free

This beautifully extended and meticulously refurbished 1930s detached home offers the perfect balance of timeless charm and contemporary style — located on an established residential road just a short stroll from Great Dunmow’s historic high street.

Set behind a large pebble driveway with space for three cars (plus on-street parking), the home’s characterful brick base and crisp white render are elevated by sage green modern windows, creating immediate curb appeal.

Step through the inviting porch and into a welcoming entrance hall where original character meets natural light. Period-style floor tiles and a stained-glass effect window flood the space with colour, while the elegant staircase draws your eye upward.

The heart of the home lies in the expansive open-plan kitchen, dining, and living area — a space made for modern family life and effortless entertaining. Rich reclaimed wood floors flow throughout, and natural light pours in through a large roof lantern and statement bi-fold doors. The bespoke kitchen features marble worktops, an Aga cooker, integrated appliances, a Villeroy & Boch sink, and mushroom-grey cabinetry with copper hardware. A coffee station and central island complete the scene, with views stretching seamlessly into the landscaped garden.

Off the kitchen, exposed brickwork leads into a practical utility room, fully equipped with a second oven, washing machine, dryer, Franke sink, and Worcester Bosch boiler.

To the front, a cosy snug painted in deep charcoal tones offers the perfect evening retreat with a Scandinavian log burner and views to the front. Adjacent, a versatile office with feature stained-glass window provides an ideal space for remote work or creative pursuits.

Upstairs, the generous landing (with potential to create a fourth bedroom, subject to layout on landing or dormer extension) is bathed in natural light from three windows and offers custom wardrobe storage. The three bedrooms are all true doubles, including a stunning principal suite with fitted wardrobes and a sleek en-suite shower room finished with cast iron fixtures and hexagonal floor tiles.

The family bathroom is equally stylish, featuring a reclaimed wood floor, roll-top bath, and overhead shower — perfect for long soaks at the end of the day.

Outside, the south-facing garden is a private oasis. A herringbone brick patio opens into a lush lawn bordered by mature trees, shrubs, and a beautiful redbrick wall. A unique outdoor cast iron bath with hot and cold plumbing adds a touch of luxury, while an outdoor kitchenette and generous side access with power and taps cater to al fresco living. At the rear, a large shed and bark play area with space for a trampoline round off this family-friendly haven.
