Description
A comfortable four bedroom family house with a double garage and parking, influenced by traditional period-style architecture, located in the small village of Great Totham, around 5 miles from Maldon.
4 Rookery Lane, known as 'Oak Lodge', is a bespoke Potton built house constructed in 1983 extending to approximately 2,480 sq ft and set within established gardens which wrap around the property. The property is being sold with no onward chain and occupies a largely private setting within easy reach of this attractive east Essex village.
The accommodation has been arranged over two levels providing balanced bedroom and reception space, ideal for growing families. To the first floor there are four bedrooms and a family bathroom. Three of the bedrooms provide a south/south-west facing aspect with the principal bedroom providing en suite facilities. To the ground floor there is a welcoming entrance hall leading to a cloakroom, a utility room and a principle reception which is an attractive dual-aspect room with inglenook fireplace with inset log burning stove. To the rear of the property there is a traditional kitchen and a large breakfast/family room opening, and with views over the rear and side gardens. Concluding the accommodation is a west-facing conservatory.
Outside
The property is approached over a sweeping drive leading to the front of the house and double garage where off-road parking is provided. The garden largely wraps around the property providing areas of lawn and established hedging. There is a small paved terrace seating area, a treehouse and a service door leading to the garage. The garden faces predominately south-west and east and offers a wonderful addition to this attractive family home.
