Overview
Brook House is a truly remarkable 17th Centaury country cottage which simply put, offers the very best of both worlds; beautiful period features and charming character yet fully refurbished to a very high specification from top to bottom.
This spectacular home is situated close to the centre of this picturesque village, which lies about 6 miles to the North of the city of Chelmsford. The Grade II Listed building is believed to date from the 17th century and is predominantly timber framed with rendered elevations under a mainly tiled and partially slate roof.
There are numerous attractive period features including an elegant drawing room with brick built fireplaces at either end which house a wood burner at one end and an open grate fire at the other, the dining room also has a wood burner, as does the kitchen which has integrated appliances. In addition, there is a study or cozy snug, two utility rooms and a ground floor shower room. There are two staircases to the first floor, where there is a bathroom and four bedrooms, all well-proportioned.
A key feature to this property is the addition of a one bedroom cottage which could be used as additional accommodation to the main house but more recently has been used as an Airbnb (minimum 2 nights stay £75 per night). The delightful enclosed gardens are largely west facing and are laid to lawn with a feature pond, decking and seating area. The village stream with a small feature waterfall flanks one side of the garden.
Ford End is a small village perfectly situated between Chelmsford and Great Dunmow, with village school and parish church. It offers delightful country walks to other nearby villages and has many local clubs and societies. Great Dunmow is a fine historic Essex town offering a range of shopping, social, educational and recreational facilities, including a Sports Centre. The large City of Chelmsford to the South has a broad range of shopping facilities, fast trains to London Liverpool Street, a hospital, university and several private and state schooling facilities.
