Description
Rich in history the Georgian estate was built in the 1740s and the main house is understood to be divided up into 4 apartments in the 1960s. The estate was once the residence of Lady Elise Whitmore.

The penthouse, with its own front door and external access is being sold as a leasehold, and is a 4 or 5 bedroom, 2 bathroom property, with three large lofts and a garage. All on one floor the property is approximately 171 sq meters / 1840 sq feet. The development is accessed via a gated driveway. The property is being sold due to the vendors relocating. It is priced accordingly for a quick sale.

Master suite - bedroom 1

Looking over the tennis court, rear of the estate, and the walled garden, the suite occupies a super king four poster bed with two built- in cupboards. The room is capable of including a sitting area, and/or additional wardrobes or vanities. The master was initially designed with a walk-in closet / private room to accompany the master bedroom. This is shown on the floorplan as the fifth or spare bedroom, and it could be a nursery, guest room, or home office.

2 X bay windows with window seats

Larger bathroom

The brand new bathroom has a new clawfoot tub, traditional pull chain toilet, traditional basin with the modern touch of one mixer tap.

It has been designed with the option of locking off to the master bedroom, making the three rooms a suite. Or, the option to keep it open to serve the entire apartment.

Kitchen

The new kitchen/diner has been designed to overlook the tennis court, rear of the estate, and the walled garden, and enjoy the evening sky. The kitchen has not yet been installed and the price reflects this allowing for potential buyers to determine if they would like to design and install their own kitchen or use the existing plan.

2 X bay windows with window seats

Opportunity to add value

While work has been done to modernise the penthouse, there is a good amount of scope to add value, including potentially a utility room or further bathroom in the existing foyer. This property would suit a developer or a buyer who would like to increase the value of the property.

Outdoors

The leasehold of the property enjoys exclusive use of the walled garden shared with the further three apartments.

The Georgian estate has 18 acres of communally accessed lands, including a tennis court, pond, and glorious wildlife.

Transport

The station with the quickest access to London is Grays Station, with trains taking 34 minutes to Fenchurch Street. There is easy access to the bus route and it runs along the property. The property also offers easy access to A13, M25, and the West Horndon train station.

Leasehold

There are approximately 86 years remaining on the leasehold, and the vendor was legally advised that this can be extended after 2 years of ownership. The vendors needed to relocate and therefore have not applied for this extension.

Freehold

There appears to be a possible option to buy into the freehold as a share, though this would be through the Orsett House Management Company, managed by the owners of the other apartments.

Garage

Includes ceiling rafters for further storage, water tap, and electricity.
