Mount End, Theydon Mount, Epping, Essex

This immaculate detached house nestles in 5.428 acres of stunning grounds that features, a heated swimming pool, hot tub, an all-weather tennis court and a six hole golf practice area. Originally built in the 1950s it has been considerably extended and modernised by the current owners.

The house is surrounded by countryside and approached by a gravel driveway that leads to a spacious parking area and the double garage. The drive is bordered by lawns with fruit trees and colourful shrub beds as well as a pathway to the front porch. This leads to the entrance hall with daylight flooding through a large arched window, herringbone wood flooring that continues into the drawing room, an oak staircase, storage facilities and a cloakroom.

There is a dual aspect study and the superb light and bright 25ft drawing room with three sets of French doors to the garden and a cast iron working fireplace with a stone surround. Double doors open into the elegant stone floored dining room where you could easily entertain a dozen guests.

The fabulous kitchen has porcelain tiled flooring, an inset four oven Aga and innovative Poggenpohl units including a large central island housing a variety of Miele appliances. There is also a spacious breakfast bar and a separate breakfast area with access to a family room and double doors to the impressive orangery that offers wonderful views over the grounds.

A door from the kitchen opens into a secondary hallway with separate external access. It leads to the fitted utility room, a cloakroom and a staircase to a large double bedroom and en-suite bathroom above the garage. This room is currently in use as a gym, but the whole area could be converted into a separate annex if required, subject to any relevant permissions.

On the first floor there are three double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms, including the wonderful dual aspect principal bedroom. This has a large fitted dressing room area and a luxurious en-suite bathroom. The second floor includes a landing and two spacious double bedrooms with en-suite bathrooms and French doors to Juliette balconies providing uninterrupted views over the surrounding countryside.

As well as the swimming pool, hot tub and tennis court there is a spacious terrace that includes a retractable covered and heated pergola seating area and a separate patio adjacent to the charming pond, bordered by acres of parkland with a delightful summerhouse and the pitch and putt style golf practice area.

What the Owner says:

We came here some 30 years ago when our children were young as we wanted to bring them up in a countryside environment, with easy access to a choice of excellent schools, and a wonderful friendly local community. Two family-friendly pubs are within walking distance, and our favourite restaurants, Smiths of Ongar and Alex's are a short taxi ride away. This has been a very special family home as well as a fantastic place to host parties and gatherings. We have very special memories of our time here but are moving back to a previous family home.

Although located in the rural setting of the highly desirable hamlet of Theydon Mount, it is well connected to the M25 and M11, as well as being only three miles from Epping underground station, Line giving easy access to the City of London and West End. As well as being famous for its forest, Epping includes delightful period properties in a Conservation Area and is well-known for its Monday market that has been in existence since the 13th century. There is a hospital and a wide range of shops, restaurants, bars and cafes as well as an excellent preparatory school only minutes away by car and three highly recognised private schools are within a 15-20 minute drive. Sporting aficionados can join cricket, tennis and football clubs and enjoy padel nearby, while golfers can play on the Epping and Theydon Bois Golf Courses or at the Hobbs Cross Golf Centre and equine enthusiasts can enjoy riding in Epping Forest.
