What the Owner says:
It has been a dream living here, it is a peaceful, tranquil and cosy house with all the mod cons that you could need. It is one of only six houses, which were all part of a small private hamlet, with a Norman church and ancient trees that are over 800 years old.

The area is a wildlife haven, having worked for the RSPB and Essex Wildlife Trust I have been amazed at the amount of wildlife in the back garden and surrounding ancient bluebell and oak woodland. Fallow & Roe deer in the fields and woods, rare birds, turtle doves & barn owls, ancient, protected bluebell woods within 5min walk from the house. The sun sets over the field behind the house all year round and the surrounding fields are protected as agricultural land and will not be built on.

Our daughter grew up here from a baby and had a freedom that these days is rare, as we have no through traffic and very caring little community. We have a WhatsApp group between all the neighbours which is really nice. All our neighbours have been here longer than us and love and care for this little hamlet.

The house itself has a beautiful view from every window and aspect. It's hard to decide if the fire in the lounge or the kitchen are the heart of this home as both bring different ambience. We have had many a lovely evening get together on the deck watching the sun go down and the deer emerge with a glass of wine.
