SUMMARY
An enchanting early nineteenth-century cottage offering generous, character-filled living spaces, beautifully established gardens and a versatile annexe-style suite. Ideally placed for local amenities and excellent A12 links, it provides a rare blend of tranquillity and commuter convenience.


DESCRIPTION
Steeped in early nineteenth-century history, this enchanting four bedroom cottage offers a rare sense of charm, privacy and space. Its beautifully established garden unfolds into a series of secluded areas, from peaceful seating spots to an inviting entertaining space, complemented by a rear workshop with gym area and a hidden log store perfect for the two internal open fireplaces.



A welcoming entrance porch leads into a characterful dining room, a cosy study or snug and a spacious lounge. The fitted kitchen and utility room support modern living, while an additional reception room sits just off the lounge. Currently arranged as a large office and recreational space, and formerly used as a library and additional bedroom accommodation, it serves beautifully as a versatile multi-purpose suite or annexe, complete with its own shower room.

Upstairs, four well proportioned bedrooms include one with an en-suite and dressing room, alongside a four piece family bathroom. The front of the property offers ample off road parking via the in and out style driveway.



Ideally positioned for access to local amenities, well-regarded schools and excellent A12 links, the property offers an effortless route to Colchester, Chelmsford, London and surrounding commuter destinations while still providing a sense of escape rarely found in such a convenient setting.
