This stunning Georgina Grade II listed former vicarage is set within private and well secluded grounds approaching an acre in the heart of this beautiful Essex village. The main house is an impressive 5,000 sq.ft of magnificent and charming accommodation. Inside, you are met by the most wonderful grand reception hall leading to all three bright and airy reception rooms. The kitchen/breakfast room overlooks the garden to rear and has a separate utility room with pantry. There is also a cellar. The six double bedrooms and three bath/shower rooms are set over the first and second floors. Outside, there is a carriage driveway which sweeps past the front and leads to both double garage blocks. The grounds are well kept with formal lawns to the front and rear aspects with various mature trees.

Located in the heart of the village of Boreham to the north east of the City of Chelmsford. The Old Vicarage is a perfect place to reside for those commuting with nearby railway stations at Chelmsford and Hatfield Peverel with a frequent service to London Stratford and Liverpool Street.

The provision of a brand new train station at Beaulieu Park has been a long-standing aspiration for the local area and construction work began earlier this year. This new station will be sited just a 1.3 mile walk from the house, will offer services to London as well as other destinations in the east of England, and is anticipated for completion in late 2025. The new station will have parking for over 700 vehicles including provision for electric vehicle charging points, 500 spaces for cycle parking as well as a bus interchange including bus stands for local services. Beaulieu itself is also home to an 'All Through' School, catering for children from Primary all the way to Sixth Form.

The property is also situated under 1 mile of Boreham House which has plans to be the new home of New Hall’s Preparatory Division from September 2025 (subject to the normal planning consents).

The village has a local Post Office, doctors surgery, convenience store, traditional public houses serving hot food and a great choice of local ales. Boreham is home to the outstanding The Lion Inn Restaurant positioned just a short walk away. New Hall School is located in close proximity along with King Edward VI Grammar School (KEGS) for boys and Chelmsford County High School (CCHS) for girls. Stansted and Southend Airports are located just 20 miles away.

We're an unusual estate agent and very proud of it. It's our goal to dispel the idea that 'all estate agents are the same. We want our clients to be able to trust us, to be able to heed our advice without qualms and to feel truly comfortable when dealing with. That way we know that we’ll be adding value to every move that we’re involved in. We create lasting relationships with our clients who, more often than not, are making hugely important and deeply personal life decisions when buying, selling or renting their homes. And, above all, we’re an integral part of the community; contributing as much as we can to enhancing the local environment and really connecting with people in the area. We are your independent, boutique and personal estate agent that has you and your property at the heart of everything we do. So after 4 smashed office windows, winning multiple national awards, half a dozen soggy shoulders from clients’ tears of happiness or despair, plentiful bouquet of flowers, copious amount of chocolates, many sense of humour failures between the three business partners, very tolerant spouses, too many sleepless nights and a bucket load of hard work, from our wonderful team, to deliver great customer service, we’re still here.
