House For Sale £695,000
Quintessentially english grade ll listed double fronted cottage with an abundance of charm, character, and A ‘’secret garden’’
This three double bedroom Grade ll Listed home is situated in the centre of Eastwick, a pretty, rural village on the Herts and Essex border where the rural feel is quite apparent, however the property is within a very short driving distance of a variety of amenities, including a choice of main-line stations.
Exposed beams are in evidence throughout, however a great feeling of space and natural light permeate through this cottage, a merit not often associated in a house of this period.
The accommodation is spacious throughout and in brief offers: Entrance hall, sitting room, dining room, kitchen with pantry, three double bedrooms and family bathroom. An outbuilding provides an addition shower room and utility space. Rear courtyard garden plus an additional garden plot of approximately 506 sq. M (5,500 sq. Ft.) There is potential here to erect an outbuilding/ garden room, subject to the usual planning permissions.
The Property
Ground Floor
As you step through the front door you are met by a traditional hallway with a staircase to the first floor. The two reception rooms either side of the hall are both generous in size and include a welcoming sitting room with a magnificent inglenook fireplace. Inset within this beautiful feature is a large, most attractive wood-burning stove.
A separate dining room sits to the other side of the hall, with space for a large dining table, ideal for those family meals or for more formal entertaining. To the rear of the hallway, spanning the back of the house, the fitted kitchen offers ample space for food preparation and storage, together with a walk-in pantry.
First Floor
Upstairs, the split-level landing leads to the bedroom accommodation and family bathroom.
The principal bedroom mirrors the dining room below; it is a lovely size with dual aspect windows and the benefit of a walk-in clothes closet/dressing room. There are two further double bedrooms and a family bathroom on this floor.
Outside
Outside the pretty front garden has ‘cottage garden’ style planting with a central pathway to the front door. A walled courtyard garden sits to the immediate rear of the property and is incredibly private. From here, there is access to an outhouse providing a well fitted shower room plus a utility area with plumbing for a washing machine.
Gated access leads out to a small lane where, just on the opposite side, you will find ‘the secret garden’.
Fully fenced to all boundaries with high hedgerows giving privacy, this additional plot measures approximately 506 sq. Meters (5,500 sq. Ft.) It is well stocked with an array of mature planting with the remainder laid to lawn. There is a large metal garden store and greenhouse to remain.
This is an excellent benefit to the property and a fabulous outdoor space to entertain, relax and enjoy the peace and quiet, or just a great outdoor space for the children to explore and let off steam.
There is also potential here to erect an outbuilding/ garden room, subject to the usual planning permissions.
