Description

A fantastic investment opportunity, this impressive property includes two self-contained one-bedroom annexes that together generate an income currently covering the owners’ mortgage and utility bills.

Set in the picturesque village of Colne Engaine, the home enjoys a warm and welcoming community atmosphere. The village offers a primary school, local convenience store, traditional pub and a Grade I Listed church dating back to around 1100 AD. Surrounded by open countryside, residents can enjoy scenic walks and cycle routes from the doorstep. Nearby Earls Colne provides additional shops and amenities, with convenient access to the A120, A12 and mainline rail services.

The main house is generously proportioned, providing around 4,253 sq ft of flexible accommodation arranged over three floors, all beautifully refurbished in 2022/2023. The property sits within approximately 0.6 acres of grounds and enjoys excellent privacy, set back from the road with attractive undulating views to the rear.

In addition to the main residence, there are two independent annexes, each with a private entrance—one accessible internally from the main house. Both benefit from shared use of a dedicated office and laundry room.

The principal accommodation includes an entrance hall, cloakroom, living room, sitting room, snug, newly fitted kitchen with island, dining/sun room, utility room with access to an integral garage/store, and a study that can be incorporated into either the main house or one of the annexes. On the first floor, the principal suite features a balcony, dressing room and en-suite bathroom, alongside three further bedrooms served by two family bathrooms.

Outside, the property has a detached double garage with a versatile room above, currently used as a playroom. A large driveway provides ample parking.
