Description
A detached five bedroom house providing flexible accommodation occupying a peaceful setting close to the popular north Essex village of Birch. The property enjoys a range of outbuildings including a detached self-contained studio and is set in gardens and grounds of around 2.2 acres, offering an excellent opportunity for those with equestrian interests.
Stable Field Cottage is an extended family home extending to over 2,500 sq ft, requiring some improvement and is being sold with no onward chain. The accommodation has been arranged over two levels and is approached from the side into a welcoming entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor. The sitting room is positioned to the front of the house and is a comfortable room with a central brick fireplace opening to an east-facing conservatory. To the corner of the property is a ground floor bedroom with direct access to an en suite bathroom, offering the potential for self-contained accommodation. At the other end of the house is the kitchen opening to a utility room, cloakroom and office.
To the first floor there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. The principal bedroom is located to the rear of the house and enjoys wonderful far-reaching countryside views and en suite facilities.
Outside
Externally there is a detached double garage which has been converted to provide a large studio room, kitchen and cloakroom.
The property fronts a country lane position in the centre of the hamlet of Hardy’s Green. The property is approached over two independent drives with a small area of garden to the front of the house. The land follows the curvature of the lane with an area of garden immediately surrounding the house. The garden provides a paved terrace with the reminder laid to lawn interspersed with a variety of trees and shrubs. Accessed from one of the drives is a converted garage block providing self-contained studio accommodation, offering an ideal space for home working or annexe accommodation, subject to the necessary consents. To the east is a paddock extending to around 1.7 acres incorporating a stable block comprising three loose boxes and attached storage facilities along with a separate hay barn sited on the northern boundary. The paddock has its own independent vehicular access.
