Nestled amidst protected open farmland, this exceptional four-bedroom detached farmhouse offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history. The property, a 16th Century Grade II listed treasure, has been thoughtfully restored and maintained to preserve its original charm while offering modern comforts.
With captivating 360-degree views over the surrounding countryside, the farmhouse provides a tranquil escape from the hustle and bustle, yet is ideally situated on the outskirts of Ingatestone and Mountnessing, offering easy access to Shenfield and Billericay.
The gated driveway and gravel courtyard create an inviting, rustic atmosphere. There are five cart lodges, three on one side of the courtyard and two on the other, an open sided small barn and three stables. The potential for future development, subject to planning permissions, opens up many possibilities.
The dining room with its wood burning stove and charming brick surround sets a warm tone, while the exposed beams and rustic touches throughout give the space character. The lounge, with dual aspect views benefits from an electric log burner, seems like a perfect spot for relaxation.
The orangery, with underfloor heating and tiled flooring is an ideal place to enjoy the outdoors from inside, offering a bright and airy atmosphere. The country style kitchen enjoys granite countertops, a butler sink, and a gas AGA with the added benefit of a larder. The snug with a log burner is the perfect place to unwind, and the access to the garden adds a great connection to the outdoors. The ground floor is completed with a utility room and cloakroom.
To the left hand side of the first floor, the principal suite with valuted ceilings and dual aspect views is a stunning, light filled space, making it feel even more expansive. The study and shower room offer functionality and luxury. To the right wing of the property there are three double bedrooms providing plenty of room for family or guests alongside a family bathroom and an additional shower from the landing. The mezzanine landing used as a dressing room and walk-in wardrobe is the perfect blend of practicality and style. (Ref: NBC250308).
