PUMP COTTAGE is a highly individual and, in many ways, unique family home, situated in a lovely position at the heart of Arkesden village. The property provides nicely proportioned and well-balanced living accommodation, with bedrooms on the ground floor and reception areas on the first, thus taking advantage of outstanding views over surrounding countryside and the village, looking across a stream to thatched cottages and church which occupies a commanding position to the front.
The front door opens into an entrance hall, where stairs rise to the first floor and doors lead off to 3 good sized bedrooms. The master bedroom has the benefit of its own en suite shower room, which is in addition to the family bathroom, also located on the ground floor and containing a white 3-piece suite. In addition, there is a utility room at this level which provides worktops, storage cupboards and appliance space, with a door leading to the outside.
Upstairs, the first-floor hallway has an attractive wooden floor and doors leading off to all principal rooms. The sitting room has triple aspect windows, drawing in good amounts of light, and a fireplace. A study looks out to the front, which provides ideal space for those who work from home. A most attractive sun room has a triple aspect, drawing in enormous amounts of natural light, with a door leading onto a raised deck from which there are lovely views to the rear. The kitchen and dining areas combine to create one large open-plan living space, featuring a bay window overlooking views to the rear and a full-height picture window to the front, which provides a quite special aspect over the village. The kitchen itself is fitted with a range of storage cupboards and worktops with space for appliances.
OUTSIDE, the property sits back from the road, with its front garden area incorporating off-street parking space for several vehicles, and giving access to an integral garage, which has an up-and-over door and also contains the oil-fired central heating boiler and water softener. The main garden extends to the side of the house, adjoining open countryside along one border, which provides a lovely aspect over surrounding farmland. In all, the plot extends to approx. 0.13 of an acre.
ARKESDEN is a highly regarded North West Essex village with its mixture of period and modern properties set amidst undulating countryside. Facilities include a church, village hall, the newly refurbished public house – The Axe & Compass and a playing field. The village of Clavering is 2 miles away and has a village shop, public houses and a primary school. The historic market town of Saffron Walden lies 7 miles distant offering a wide range of shopping, educational and recreational facilities, and the City of Cambridge lies to the north. The mainline railway station at Audley End (3 miles) has commuter services to London (Liverpool Street).
