Location
Cherry Street is an attractive hamlet to the north of Duton Hill lying approximately halfway between the Essex towns of Dunmow and Thaxted. The larger towns of Bishop’s Stortford and Braintree are approximately 8 miles to the southwest and 10 miles to the southeast (as the crow flies). Saffron Walden is approximately 8 miles to the northwest and London Stansted Airport (terminal) is about 4 miles to the southwest. There are regular train services from Stansted Airport, Bishop’s Stortford and Braintree into London.
Marshs is a charming and impressive barn conversion offering considerable space and the option to occupy the property either as one or two separate dwellings. Marshs has driveway parking off Cherry Street and attractive gardens to the side and rear, which are enclosed by a fence. On the other side of the driveway is a further parking area and a paddock, which extends to approximately 0.54 hectares (1.33 acres).
The buildings at Marshs (also known as Brick House Farm) which are in generally good condition are of mixed construction and stand on a gently sloping site. The footprint of each building is shown below with the numbers referring to the plan below.

Whilst the original use of the buildings was for agricultural purposes, there has been a more recent history of commercial occupation.
Overage

If offers are received which the vendors consider reflect this development potential, they would be prepared to sell the property without overage provisions. For further information please contact Weldon Beesly.
