DESCRIPTION
A substantial village property, sympathetically extended providing over 3000 sq ft of accommodation, standing in grounds of nearly an acre, offering huge potential for development. The property is currently in need of complete modernisation and improvement but offers an incoming purchaser a fantastic opportunity to create a beautiful family home, located in a delightful village.
The accommodation comprises an entrance lobby which gives access to the four principal reception rooms to the front of the property, all enjoying large sash windows providing lots of natural light with the drawing room enjoying double patio doors out onto the garden. The sitting room gives access to the front lobby and staircase rising to the first-floor accommodation. The generous kitchen dining room is located to the rear of the house and again enjoys lots of natural light with windows on two aspects overlooking the rear garden and countryside beyond. There is also a ground floor cloakroom/WC. To the first floor there are five bedrooms and a family bathroom with the master bedroom benefitting from an ensuite and dressing room as well as a separate kitchenette, sitting room and roof terrace above the garage, which could easily be used as an independent apartment, if required. This section previously had an external stairwell to the roof terrace.
The front boundary is protected by wrought iron railings with double gates giving access to the private driveway serving the double garage with attached pump room and store. The garden is predominantly laid to lawn with ornamental pond, specimen trees and shrubs, enjoying far reaching views of the surrounding countryside and vineyard.
LOCATION
The charming village of Purleigh is on the Dengie Peninsular which is a largely agricultural area positioned between the Blackwater estuary and River Crouch and benefits from a local shop, a well-regarded pub and an outstanding-rated Primary School, while further amenities can be found in the nearby village of Danbury, or the towns of Maldon or Chelmsford.
The area is well connected by road with the A12 approximately 7 miles away providing easy access towards London and the M25 while Chelmsford’s main line station provides fast and regular services to London Liverpool Street.
