4 bedroom detached house

DESCRIPTION
Offered with NO ONWARD CHAIN, Graywood is an impressive, detached house believed to date from the 1930s, situated in a prime location on Hoe Lane, one of the area's most highly sought-after addresses. The property is located beyond the edge of the village in a substantial garden site of nearly 3/4 of an acre, boasting fantastic far-reaching views across its superb garden and surrounding countryside, with distant views to the City on a bright day to Canary Wharf and beyond.
The house extends to over 2400 sq.ft. and features numerous impressive rooms, including, an oak-panelled reception hall and sitting room. Extended by previous owners to provide 4-bedroom accommodation, Graywood has been under the same ownership for almost 50 years and offers an incredibly rare opportunity for modernisation and potential reconfiguration or extension to create a superb home for the buyer's personal preferences.


The property occupies the front portion of its large rectangular site, which measures approximately 25 m (84 ft) in width, 124 m (406 ft) in depth, and 0.72 acres in total.
Hoe Lane extends southeast of the village and is within a short drive of Loughton, Epping, Chigwell (all on the Central Line), and Romford, as well as access to the M25 and M11.

The rear garden gently slopes down from the house and is beautifully landscaped with lawns, mature shrubs, trees, and flower beds. There is also a large area of lawn planted with multiple varieties of daffodils. A southwest-facing paved terrace lies immediately behind the house with access from the lounge, offering an idyllic setting to enjoy summer evenings, providing a tranquil retreat with picturesque views.
The far-end of the garden is sectioned off behind the trees and was previously used as a very productive vegetable patch. There are also three garden sheds, two of which have mains power and were formerly used as hobby rooms.
