Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
An idyllic country house which dates back to the early 17th Century with later 20th century additions and painted brick elevations. Behind an attractive facade is a wealth of accommodation with period features throughout. The main side entrance leads into the open plan shaker style kitchen/breakfast room with ample storage space, marble worktops and useful pantry. The kitchen has an open plan feel and social space with central island and links through to a fabulous garden/dining room which has doors out to the heated swimming pool. Further rooms include a charming sitting room with honey coloured timbers and an original inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove, a cosy snug, a downstairs cloakroom and a newly converted vaulted reception/games room, all with a light and spacious feel with a useful study/bedroom 5 to
the end.

Upstairs provides access to the principal suite with ensuite bathroom and 3 further double bedrooms with a large family bathroom.

Beautifully set in grounds of about 1.75 acres (sts), the house is surrounded by more formal areas, mainly laid to lawn with established shrub and herbaceous borders, raised planting beds, as well as a more wild garden with pond to the rear, all of which are west facing.

The sweeping drive brings you to a large, gravelled courtyard which provides access to a magnificent flint barn, which offers fantastic onward potential, whether that be classic car storage, holiday let potential or multigenerational living. As well as this, there is an existing 1 bedroom holiday let, which is detached with its own private garden, mature fruit trees and an open lawned area. All of which provides the current owners a steady and generous additional income.

Great Maplestead is a small village approximately 3 miles from the market town of Halstead, and 7 miles from Sudbury. There are shops nearby in Castle or Sible Hedingham and Halstead and the surrounding area contains many other villages and countryside. Sudbury and Braintree each offer wider facilities, together with Colchester which is an easy drive. There are excellent connections to London by rail from Braintree or Marks Tey, by the A12 and the new A120 express road through to the M11 and Stansted Airport.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on February 7, 2023

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 7, 2023

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on March 18, 2008 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
