DESCRIPTION

Swallowfield House has been meticulously constructed using only the finest materials both internally and externally, resulting in an extremely unique and energy efficient home in a stunning semi-rural location. Internally the house is flooded with natural light due to a dominant East/West position and benefits from a very well-considered configuration of modern family living space over both floors. Karndean flooring runs through the ground floor which has been laid in herringbone, taking the eye all the way through the ground floor hallway to a stunning kitchen breakfast room with bifold doors running along its entirety. They open onto a paved patio offering indoor/outdoor living during the summer months. The kitchen enjoys Miele appliances throughout including a double oven beneath quartz work surfaces, fridge freezer and wine fridge. It also benefits from a generous breakfast bar and plenty of space for a large dining table. The magnificent, vaulted living room is open to the kitchen however has its own separation due to the L-shaped design. This lovely reception also therefore benefits from lovely view of the rear garden and countryside and access to it via the previously mentioned bifold doors. The kitchen is served by a good size utility room with external access. Bedrooms three and four are also located on the ground floor, are good size doubles and share the ground floor family bathroom. The boot room is located next to the front door and the vaulted office/playroom completes the ground floor accommodation.

A turning stairwell rises past an impressive picture window providing the most enviable views of the rear garden and countryside from the landing above. To the right of the landing, bedroom two also has a floor to ceiling window looking out to the south aspect, across the fields and a beautiful ensuite shower room with small dressing area. The master claims the remainder of the first-floor accommodation resulting in a substantial walk through dressing room and another stunning ensuite bathroom with marble tiling, his and hers sinks, separate double length shower and motion sensor lighting. The bedroom itself is extremely generous and also boasts the lovely views to the rear of the property.

Externally the property is accessed via a five bar gate onto a sweeping gravel driveway providing parking for numerous vehicles. The rear garden is mainly laid to lawn with a thoughtfully designed, paved pathway which offers disabled access, dropping down to the generous patio which wraps around the rear and side of the house. There is also a bore hole to the depth of 15 metres providing water to the house through a state-of-the-art filtration system.

The location could not be more idyllic, backing onto deep countryside and the various wildlife including the nesting swallows, hence the name, and the local herds of deer that are often seen in the distance. Andrews Airfield is within walking distance if you fancy a drink or something to eat, the renowned Blue Egg farm shop and restaurant is a cycle ride, with Great Dunmow offering a wider range of supermarkets, restaurants and boutiques just a short drive.

Although the property is set within such a quiet and idyllic location, it is still within easy reach of the much sought after village of Stebbing with its collection of charming period properties, parish church, primary school and village pub. The property is also within striking distance of major road links into London and Cambridge via the M11, as well as Stansted airport and a wide range of schooling in all sectors. Felsted school is just 3 miles away.
