Description
Palmer & Partners are delighted to present this attractive four-bedroom detached home, positioned within the picturesque village of Layer Marney. Renowned for its historic Tudor tower, the village is surrounded by open countryside, offering a peaceful rural setting while remaining conveniently close to Tiptree and Colchester. Both nearby towns provide a wide selection of shops, supermarkets, schools, and everyday amenities. Colchester also benefits from a mainline railway station with direct services to London Liverpool Street, along with straightforward access to the A12, making the location ideal for commuters.
The entrance hall leads into a generous living room, where a log burner provides a warm and inviting focal point. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room is ideal for both everyday living and entertaining, offering ample storage and preparation space. A bright conservatory further enhances the accommodation and enjoys views over the rear garden. A ground-floor cloakroom completes the layout.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom features an en-suite shower room and its own dressing area. A second bedroom also enjoys the benefit of an en-suite, making it ideal for guests or older children. The top floor accommodates two further bedrooms, served by a modern family bathroom.
Externally, the property provides off-road parking and a versatile workshop, ideal for conversion into a studio, home office, or hobby space. A separate external utility room adds further practicality, while the beautifully maintained side and rear gardens offer a peaceful setting for outdoor dining and relaxation. Designed with energy efficiency in mind, the home benefits from solar panels and an air source heat pump, helping to reduce ongoing running costs.
Palmer & Partners highly recommend an internal viewing to fully appreciate this fantastic opportunity to enjoy village living, combined with modern features, generous accommodation, and excellent access to nearby amenities and transport links.
