An elegant Grade II listed Georgian Dower House dating back to the 18th century occupying mature grounds of approaching 3/4 acre.
Description
This elegant Grade II listed Dower House occupies a wonderful mature plot of almost 3/4 acre and offers delightful character accommodation coupled with a first class location. The current owners have carried out a sympathetic restoration of the house including installing LPG underfloor heating throughout, a rainwater harvesting system, rewired and replumbed, old cement render removed and replaced with lime render which is finished in Farrow and Ball Old White.
The ground floor offers an entrance hall leading to the reception rooms, typical of the era with tall ceilings and large windows which flood the rooms with natural light. There are period features throughout including open fireplaces, wood burners and a variety of other interesting items. The kitchen/ breakfast room has a range of fitted cupboards and integrated appliances including an Everhot cooking range. The central island provides seating and is illuminated by a lantern light positioned above.
The first floor comprises a main bedroom suite with a door to the bathroom which also serves as a family bathroom accessed from the landing. There are two further bedrooms, one with an en suite shower room. The second floor adds a further bedroom and bathroom.
The house is approached via security gates leading to a gravel driveway providing parking for numerous cars. There is a detached garage with three doors, each leading to a separate space which provides potential for guest accommodation/home office. Above the garage is a single large room. There is an additional outbuilding suitable for storage, a covered paved patio and various seating areas situated in different parts of the garden which enjoys a variety of mature trees and plants. The grounds are mainly laid to lawn bisected by a fine old brick wall.
Location
High Beech contains some of the area's finest properties, nestling deep in Epping Forest yet less than 2 miles from Loughton High Road and tube station. There is a range of well regarded state and private schools locally, plus pick up points to schools further afield.
Square Footage: 2,491 sq ft
Acreage: 0.72 Acres
