Lifestyle Built in 1930, this property was one of the first big houses overlooking the high street and it has an interesting history including once being a doctor's surgery. When we first came to look around in 2001, we knew that it would take a lot of work to refurbish to a lovely family home but we fell in love with its grandeur and period features. It has an amazing presence that we just couldn't resist, " say the owners.
"We took everything back to bare walls and added a 2-storey extension to the rear of the property, as well as reconfiguring the layout. The downstairs space flows really well and the old potting shed is now our dining room with French doors opening to the decking which is perfect when we're entertaining."
"The local schools are within walking distance and it's just a 2-minute walk to the station where our children could catch the train to school in Chelmsford or a 20 minute fast train for me in to the city. It also enabled us to enjoy day trips to the coast. There are some great restaurants in the High Street along with a good choice of shops and bars. It's a busy area with something for everyone to enjoy, including local scenic footpaths through the countryside. The Christmas Fair is a highlight in the year, as they fill the High Street with festive stalls." Everything we need is easily accessible, yet we're far enough away for it not to affect us.
"The fully enclosed garden is mainly laid to lawn with mature plants and trees. It's very private and we're not overlooked, so it's ideal for entertaining. The decking is large and has enough space to accommodate a small marquee, we use it all year round and we've celebrated many special birthdays here. The garden is very peaceful with plenty of sunshine and spaces to sit and relax."
"We spend a lot of time in the living area which is full of light from the roof lantern in the kitchen. We just open the doors and wander outside to sit in the sun on the decking. The large bay window in our bedroom is another favourite feature, as is the oak panelling in the hallway and sitting room. The garage/man cave is fully fitted out and heated and i've spent many happy hours in there tinkering with my motorbikes, a real haven"
