House For Sale £820,000
Detached House with Land - Witham Friary


Description
A generously proportioned four bedroom village property with a range of outbuildings, spring fed lake and a paddock extending to approximately 1.5 acres.

About the property:

Built in approximately 1990, this stone built village house has been extended over the past few years to provide well-proportioned open plan family living accommodation, offering a large kitchen/dining/living room with underfloor heating, four double bedrooms, separate utility room and office, and double garage. Behind the house is a good sized lawn and vegetable garden, which then leads into a large paddock with a small lake, which offers the potential to develop into a glamping or Airbnb opportunity.

About the inside:

Entering through a large entrance hall with a cloakroom to one side, the property starts with a good sized music/reception room with the staircase rising to the first floor, and then opening into the contemporary kitchen. Fitted with pale green units and granite worktops with a double butlers sink, the kitchen has a built in larder cupboard, space for a large electric range cooker, and underfloor heating. This opens into the light and airy family/dining area with French doors onto the terrace, access into the useful utility/boot room (which houses the cylinders for the air source heat pump), and archway into the separate 22' sitting room which features a woodburning stove creating a cosy space.

Upstairs are four double bedrooms and the family bathroom. The principal bedroom enjoys a vaulted ceiling, dressing area and en-suite bathroom.

Accessed from the rear terrace is a separate space divided into an office and laundry room.

About the outside:

The property offers plenty of parking for several vehicles to the front with a five bar gate leading to the rear. The driveway leads around the terrace to the double garage which offers scope for conversion (subject to planning). Beyond is a large level lawn bordered by fencing, mature shrubs and trees, and a fenced vegetable garden with a greenhouse. A gate leads into the field which is full of wild flowers in the summer, and offers views all the way to Alfred's Tower. There is a small secluded spring fed lake in addition to further outbuildings including stables and a composting toilet.

The property offers exciting potential to develop into a glamping or Airbnb business, or smallholding subject to consent.
