House For Sale £1,600,000
Dating back to the 15th Century, Butlers Hall is an exceptionally historic property, which has been recognised by its Grade II* status. The property offers a vast amount of wonderful period features, which include, high ceilings, heavily beamed reception rooms with detailed moulds, oak panelling, impressive fireplaces, sash windows, Norman Arch doorway and much more. In more recent years the property has undergone sympathetic and substantial refurbishments, which fuses the eras beautifully and brings the property into today’s modern standards.
In brief the property comprises an entrance hall, with brick flooring throughout the ground floor and a central staircase, with an inner boot room, cloakroom, and access to the cellar. The dining room is adjacent with the continuation of the brick flooring, moulded axial beams, dual aspect views, a further sitting room featuring late 18th century wallpaper, with a rear reception hall, fitted with Neptune bookshelves, providing access to a family room with doors out to the terrace and gardens. The Aga kitchen/breakfast room provides a hub to the property, with Neptune island, composite worktops and extensive storage, to include a walk in pantry, all adopting charming views over the rear gardens.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom adopts a westerly aspect, with oak panelled walls and ensuite shower room, with 4 further bedrooms on this floor, one with ensuite shower and a family bathroom. The second floor provides wonderful scope, as the attic runs almost the same footprint as the first floor and with the right consents would be a fantastic opportunity for a buyer to increase the accommodation.
Outside forms a further important feature, as the property is set back from the road up a gravelled private drive, and secured by a five-bar gate, which opens to allow access to the extensive parking, access to outbuildings, which again provides wonderful scope to buyers. The gardens are broken up creatively into areas of formality and more wild aspects, to the front of the property is mainly laid to lawn, with paddocks further to the north.
To the rear, are stunning terraced gardens, organised and defined by box hedge, further kitchen gardens, and wildflower meadows, encased by a red brick wall. Adjoining the main house, is The Dairy, a 1/2 bedroom self-contained annexe with its own access and private gardens, which provides a great opportunity to buyers looking to create a holiday let, provide multigenerational living or a true home office.
Bulmer is a peaceful village, surrounded by open countryside with a popular pub 'The Fox', primary school, village and church. The market town of Sudbury is nearby, offering a wider range of amenities, to include a branch line station to Marks Tey where the mainline takes you to London Liverpool Street.
