This detached period cottage is brimmed full of character, with a multitude of original features. There is the original range in the dining room, with exposed brick work and stud work throughout. There are three generous reception rooms plus a groundfloor shower/utility room. On the first floor there are three bedrooms all well served by the property's second shower room. A new boiler was installed in 2023 and there is double glazing throughout. There is a landscaped garden to the rear which is accessed via both sides of the property. Halstead town centre and local schools are all a short walk away. The dwelling is offered with no onward chain.
Having previously been two cottages, the front of this property is consequently rather impressive, as are the internal characteristics and features. Stepping in through the front door and you are immediately transported back to the eighteenth century with the original range fireplace and exposed timbers. The upside is that with the modern heating system and kitchen the old range is purely there for decorative purposes. There is a staircase up to the first floor from this the first of three ground floor reception rooms, doors also lead through to the kitchen and lounge. In the lounge there is a large red brick fireplace with inset woodburning stove, two large double galzed windows to the front make this room light and airy. The cottages second staircase is in the corner of this room, there are doors to the kitchen and rear loby. The rear loby leads to a useful groundfloor utility come shower room with WC, shower cubicle and sink as well as space for a washing machine and tumble dryer. To the very rear of the property is a most impressive of spaces a generous conservatory, offerring all year round usage, with its two large central heating radiators, keeping it warm in winter and ceiling fans keeping it cool in the summer. French doors lead out to the rear garden. The kitchen has a bespoke handmade oak cottage style kitchen with integrated fridge, freezer and dishwasher. The kitchen has a vaulted ceiling with inset skylight, the vendors inform us that the roof and skylight were renewed in 2022.
To the first floor are three bedrooms and a second shower room. As with the groundfloor there are many period features that maintain the property's charm and cottage feel.
Outside to the front there are timber gates on either side of the cottage giving pathway access through to the rear garden.
There is a driveway to the right hand side of the property, however its size which measures 14' 7" x 6' 9" would only accommodate the smallest of vehicles, so is therefore more useful for bin storage and a shed.
The rear garden is cleverly landscaped with a paved patio directly besides the conservatory, steps lead up to a lawned area which in turn leads through to a pegola covered deck with a mature wisteria offerring shade during the summer months. There is a storage shed here which is to remain.
The property freehold is offered with no onward chain.
