Sitting atop a rise in the lane, Friarton’s large windows look out over the surrounding wooded countryside. There are four bedrooms, three large reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, a utility room and two halls. Just beyond the house there is a high-quality garage with purpose-built home office above.

Friarton enjoys a delightful rural location in the picturesque hamlet of Chatter End. The quiet lane leads to Farnham Green and stops there. Farnham village hall, school and church are within walking distance. The village school had a "good" Oftsed report in 2019. There is an extensive network of footpaths, bridleways and lanes offering delightful recreational possibilities on the doorstep. It is such a delightful community that the current owners have built a new home next door.

It is believed that the property dates from the late 19th century and started life as two farm workers cottages. Extended and modernised over the years, it is conventionally constructed in brick and block with a rendered finish set under a tiled roof. The front door leads into a large hall, with office space, WC and stairs. The bright living room has picture windows and a Morso Squirrel log-burner. The large kitchen/breakfast room benefits from sun morning and evening from its double aspect. The heart of the house, it has an AGA cooker, a range of kitchen units and a dining area which can seat six people. The separate dining room easily seats ten. The large triple aspect lounge has French windows onto the south facing terrace. The second hall leads to the back door and utility room with a sink, plumbing for a washer and a range of storage cupboards.

On the first floor, the master bedroom suite has an ensuite bathroom and a dressing room. There are two further good-sized bedrooms and a family bathroom, plus a smaller double bedroom that is currently fitted as an office. All the bedrooms offer great views. A wooden loft ladder leads to a boarded roof space which has a good ceiling height and might provide additional accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.

Outside, a mainly lawned garden surrounds the property including a terrace, hedges and brand new fencing. There is a recently constructed high-quality cavity wall insulated single garage with an external staircase to a home office with electricity and water provided.

Farnham lies approximately three miles from both Stansted Mountfitchet and the market town of Bishop’s Stortford which provide a comprehensive range of social, recreational, and educational facilities, mainline train stations with commuter service to London and Cambridge. There is easy access to Stansted Airport and the M11 with links to the M25, the Midlands and the North.
