Description
An exceptional family home occupying a generous plot with landscaped gardens and lake views. This outstanding six bedroom house offers a high standard of luxury family living, thoughtfully arranged across three floors.
From the moment you step into the impressive entrance hall, the sense of space and quality is immediately apparent. The ground floor is designed for both refined entertaining and relaxed family life, featuring a superb open-plan kitchen/breakfast room leading through to a dining area and a formal sitting room. A separate family room provides additional versatile living space, while a spacious dual-aspect reception room, complete with bifold doors opening to the garden, creates a seamless connection to the outdoors.
This striking reception area is divided by a glass wall from the luxurious spa, which includes a sunken jacuzzi, sauna, steam room, shower room and changing facilities. Adjacent to this is a large playroom or potential gym, which in turn provides access to the integral single garage.
The first floor is home to an exquisite principal suite with a fully fitted dressing room and a beautifully appointed bathroom featuring a free-standing bath and expansive views over the rear garden. Two further bedrooms, each with en suite shower rooms, are complemented by an additional family bathroom.
The second floor offers two additional bedrooms, one with an en suite, and a separate sitting area ideal as a teenager’s retreat or guest suite.
Detached annexe and additional accommodation
The property also includes a beautifully designed one bedroom detached annexe with air-conditioning, ideal for use as a home office or guest accommodation. This self-contained unit comprises an open-plan kitchen/living space with patio doors to the garden, a double bedroom and a contemporary shower room.
A further garden feature is a separate detached studio, currently used as a beauty room but equally suited for use as a home gym or creative space.
Outdoor living and entertaining
The house is approached via electric gates leading to a large driveway providing ample off-street parking. To the side, accessed via the spa, is a stunning landscaped entertaining area featuring a heated swimming pool, outdoor kitchen, bespoke seating area and firepit - perfect for hosting family and friends. The rear terrace wraps around the house and opens onto expansive lawned gardens which stretch down to two picturesque lakes, offering a sense of peace and privacy rarely found.
Beyond the terrace, which extends around the rear of the property, are extensive lawn gardens leading to two large lakes.
Services
Mains water and electricity. Gas and air source heating.
There is state of the art technology throughout the house including a Control 4 system used to control the security, gate entry, outdoor lighting, televisions and the internal/external sound system. The house further benefits from under floor heating throughout.
Local authority
Epping Forest District Council. Council tax band: G (with improvement indicator).
Location
Chipping Ongar: 3.4 miles; Epping and London underground: 5.9 miles; Brentwood: 8.9 miles; Loughton: 9.2 miles; Canary wharf: 26 miles. All distances approximate.
This residence lies in an attractive stretch of undulating countryside to the south-west of Chipping Ongar. The small hamlet of Greensted is famous for its timber church, reputedly the oldest wooden church in England and the oldest “stave” built timber building in Europe. Greensted has some beautiful countryside walks and bridleways.
Nearby the old market town of Chipping Ongar has an excellent choice of local boutique shops together with supermarkets (Tesco and Sainsbury’s). More extensive shopping facilities can be found at Epping, Chelmsford and Brentwood.
There is a primary school in Ongar and nearby schools include Coopersale Hall, Saint Nicholas School, Chigwell, Bancrofts and the Forest, whilst further afield are Felsted, New Hall, Brentwood (with a coach pick up/drop off close by), Bishop’s Stortford college, Heath Mount and Hailebury.
For the commuter there is ready access to the M11 (Junction 7) leading to Canary Wharf and London underground station at Epping and Debden with mainline services from Brentwood, Shenfield or Harlow.
