Situation
Quietly positioned within the charming village of Herongate along the A127, the property enjoys an appealing village lifestyle with a strong sense of community, well-regarded public houses, a village store and a fuel station with Marks & Spencer Food store. Thorndon Country Park is close by, offering extensive walking trails, wildlife and a visitor centre, complemented by nearby leisure facilities including Heron Country Club, Thorndon Park, Warley Park and The Burstead Golf Clubs. Brentwood town centre lies less than four miles away, providing a wider range of shopping and leisure amenities together with a mainline rail station, while the village common with its cricket club is just footsteps away alongside numerous countryside walks. Billericay is approximately five miles north-east, offering further shopping facilities including a Waitrose supermarket and a mainline rail station.

Additional Features
True to its name, The Old Bakery is steeped in history, retaining original features including exposed timbers, open fireplaces and a weatherboarded façade. The dining room was once the bakery shop with grain stores above, while original dough-proofing troughs remain in the former outhouse.

Modern updates complement the character, including a ground-floor principal bedroom with shower room for single-level living, along with three further bedrooms and a first-floor bathroom ideal for family living or guests.

Accommodation Summary
The entrance lobby leads to two characterful front reception rooms with fireplaces, built-in storage and exposed timbers.

Beyond the main sitting room is a shaker-style kitchen/breakfast room with wood worktops, Rangemaster oven, breakfast island, skylights, vaulted ceiling and exposed beams from the former grain store.

The kitchen provides access to the garden, a spacious utility room and the dining room, formerly the bakery shop. A hallway leads to the principal ground-floor bedroom overlooking the garden, with an adjacent versatile bedroom/study and nearby shower room.

Upstairs are two further bedrooms with built-in storage, one with feature fireplace, plus a family bathroom.

Outside
The Old Bakery occupies a corner plot with off-road parking for several vehicles. Front and rear gardens offer private spaces for relaxing and entertaining, with lawn, hedging and gated side access.

The rear garden features two seating areas, a summerhouse and established planting. An attached outhouse, currently used for storage, offers scope for conversion to a garden room or extension (subject to consents).
