Individual family home in a discreet setting within the heart of Braintree, on a generous plot and being sold with no chain.
Description
A delightful four bedroom period-style cottage, occupying a private setting located just under one mile from Braintree train station. The property stands in grounds of around half an acre and is being sold with no onward chain.
The accommodation extends to approximately 240.6 square metres (2,589 square feet) across two floors, with an additional 17.4 square metres (187 square feet) of outbuildings.
The layout provides versatile living space and the property is well presented, but also offers scope for cosmetic updating or extending.
The ground floor is centred around a welcoming entrance hall which leads through to a well-proportioned sitting room with feature fireplace and access to a conservatory that opens out to the garden. Adjacent to the sitting room is a dining room which flows into a generous kitchen. The kitchen is well-equipped with a separate utility room.
There are three bedrooms located on the ground floor. The largest of these, positioned in a separate wing of the house, benefits from its own en suite shower room. Two further bedrooms are served by a family bathroom, which is conveniently positioned off the hallway. This arrangement is ideal for guests, multi-generational living, or as flexible work-from-home space. Completing the ground floor is an integral double garage.
Stairs from the entrance hall lead to the first floor where a large landing gives access to the main bedroom. This room enjoys far-reaching views across the garden. The first floor also includes a bathroom with bath, WC, and washbasin, as well as ample eaves storage.
The property also benefits from two outbuildings, a summer house and a former ice house, offering additional storage.
Outside
The property is discreetly positioned down a private driveway, leading to a generous parking area and an attached double garage. The gardens wrap around the house, offering expansive lawns and a gently sloping aspect that leads down to a private area of woodland - creating a particularly attractive setting. In all, the grounds extend to about 0.52 of an acre.
