Windmill Hill, Saffron Walden

The Accommodation

The heart of the home is a spectacular vaulted open-plan living space that celebrates volume and light. The kitchen is a model of sleek, minimalist design, featuring a large central island with breakfast bar seating and high-end integrated appliances, seamlessly transitioning into the dining and lounge areas. This entire space is framed by dramatic floor-to-ceiling glazing and a unique "bridge" entrance, while sliding doors open onto a substantial wrap-around balcony designed for alfresco entertaining. To the front, a distinct music room features the lower curve of the signature circular window, providing a secondary space for relaxation.

Ascending the industrial-style staircase, the mezzanine office offers a sophisticated sanctuary for remote work. Perched high within the roofline, this glass-balustraded level provides a quiet vantage point that overlooks the architectural drama of the living area below while benefiting from the natural light flooding through the skylights.

The ground floor is dedicated to the home’s private quarters and versatile recreational spaces, all benefiting from high ceilings and a seamless connection to the surrounding gardens. The principal suite is a light-filled sanctuary, featuring dual-aspect windows and direct access to the garden terrace through a glazed door. This suite is further enhanced by a dedicated walk-in dressing area and a stylish en-suite shower room finished with contemporary black hexagonal floor tiles, a double vanity, and a large walk-in rain shower. The three additional bedrooms are well-proportioned and feature unique decorative touches. These rooms are served by a sophisticated family bathroom featuring a modern freestanding bathtub, and a separate glass-enclosed shower.

Positioned at the front, the playroom provides a flexible secondary living area, ideally suited as a media room or children’s den, with large windows overlooking the lawn. Completing the level is a practical utility room with external access and a central hallway with clean lines and integrated lighting that ties the accommodation together.

Outside

The property sits centrally within a generous plot, surrounded by manicured lawns and mature trees that provide a high degree of privacy. A substantial stone-paved terrace extends from the ground floor, creating an ideal sheltered spot for outdoor dining and lounging. On the first floor, a wide wrap-around balcony with a stylish metal balustrade offers an elevated platform for entertaining, providing an uninterrupted vantage point to enjoy the far-reaching views over open fields and the historic landscape of Saffron Walden. The home is approached via a private driveway providing ample off-road parking with EV charging point, and prospective purchasers should note that bricks have purchased for the erection of a detached garage on the grounds, offering the opportunity to further enhance the property’s external facilities subject to the necessary permissions.
