Description

** GUIDE PRICE £500,000 - £550,000 ** Nestled on Newland Street in the heart of Essex, this exceptional Grade II Listed house presents a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of local history. Believed to have been constructed in approximately 1680, this former Coachman's House exudes character and charm, seamlessly blending its rich heritage with comfortable living spaces ideal for a modern family.

Upon entering, you are immediately struck by the property's unique period features, which are evident throughout. The ground floor boasts three versatile reception rooms, providing ample space for both formal entertaining and relaxed family life. These rooms offer flexibility, allowing for a dedicated living room, a formal dining area, and perhaps a cosy study or snug, each benefiting from the property's historic ambience. This floor also conveniently hosts a cloakroom, a well-appointed kitchen, and an additional bedroom, making it highly functional. The layout encourages a natural flow, making it perfect for social gatherings.

This unique home is thoughtfully arranged over three floors, offering distinct living and sleeping zones. The first floor hosts two generously proportioned bedrooms, providing peaceful retreats, along with the family bathroom, ensuring convenience for all residents. The basement features the final bedroom, presenting a unique and adaptable space, perhaps ideal for guests or a quiet home office.

Beyond the interior, this historic home continues to impress. The exterior maintains its period integrity, contributing to the property's significant curb appeal. A valuable asset in this central location is the provision of off-road parking, offering practicality and ease for residents and visitors alike.

One of the most compelling aspects of this residence is its enviable location. Situated just 0.3 miles from Witham Train Station, commuters will appreciate the exceptional connectivity to London and other major hubs, making daily travel remarkably convenient. Witham itself is a vibrant market town offering a comprehensive range of amenities, including local shops, supermarkets, schools, and leisure facilities, all within easy reach. The surrounding Essex countryside provides numerous opportunities for outdoor pursuits, from scenic walks to cycling routes.

This Grade II Listed property is more than just a house; it is a home steeped in history, offering a unique lifestyle opportunity. Its blend of period charm, spacious accommodation, and superb location makes it an ideal choice for those seeking a distinctive family residence with excellent transport links. Early viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the character and potential of this remarkable home.
