Woodhouse Farm Road, Pattiswick, Braintree, Essex, CM77

A distinctive barn conversion offering generous living space, modern finishes and a convenient rural location.

Description

A beautifully presented Essex barn converted in 2018, set in a picturesque semi-rural location, just a few miles from the villages of Coggeshall and Braintree, the latter providing a direct service to London Liverpool Street station. Being sold with no onward chain, the barn offers generous open spaces, including a double-height ceiling, exposed beams and full-height glazing that brings in plenty of natural light. Features include underfloor heating, polished concrete flooring, ankle-level wall lighting, and runway lighting to the galleried landing. The landing itself is finished with engineered oak flooring, combining practicality with a clean, modern finish.
The main hall forms the centre of the home. This vaulted space, with polished concrete floor and exposed beams, is filled with natural light from the large glazed frontage. A distinctive ammonite-and-oak staircase with ironwork detailing rises from the hall, splitting midway to reach a gallery landing that overlooks the space below. The area is large enough to accommodate several living zones, making it suitable for both everyday use and entertaining. A second reception room provides a more enclosed space and is currently used as a cinema room. The kitchen is fitted with modern cabinetry and integrated appliances, set beneath white quartz worktops and positioned to overlook the front garden.

Upstairs, the accommodation is arranged across two wings. The principal suite occupies the west wing and includes an en suite bathroom and an additional fifth bedroom currently used as a dressing room. The east wing provides three further double bedrooms and a family bathroom with both a bath and separate double shower.

The property is discreetly set back from its country lane setting, approached via electric gates that open onto a wide driveway providing ample parking for several vehicles. The driveway leads to a double-bay, oak-framed cart lodge with an adjoining garage, with a path leading to the front of the house, flanked by lawn.

To the rear, the garden extends across the full width of the house and enjoys delightful views over open fields and woodland, bordering the Markshall Estate. Immediately outside the property is a generous patio area, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, which opens onto a well-kept lawn beyond. Tucked into one corner of the garden is a versatile outbuilding, currently arranged as a games room complete with a bar and WC facilities.
