Dating back to the 16th Century, this distinguished Grade II Listed home is set within a stunning plot of approximately 4.5 acres, complete with formal gardens, a picturesque lake, and two substantial barns. Just four miles from Brentwood High Street and the M25 (J28), it provides countryside living with exceptional convenience.
The interiors combine historic character with contemporary elegance. The reception spaces are generous and versatile, with exposed timbers and fine joinery retained throughout. A welcoming hallway/sitting room features one of the home's two magnificent Inglenook fireplaces, while the second forms a striking focal point in the beautifully proportioned living room, complete with wood-burner. Beyond, there are four further reception areas including a formal dining room and a study. At the heart of the home, the kitchen has been designed with a stylish shaker finish and central island, complemented by integrated appliances and direct views over the gardens. The adjoining breakfast area opens seamlessly to the terrace, while a utility and cloakroom complete the ground floor.
Upstairs, the broad landing leads to four double bedrooms. The principal suite is particularly impressive, featuring a dressing area, exposed beams, and a red-brick fireplace. A recently fitted bathroom with freestanding tub and walk-in shower, together with a separate vaulted shower room, serve the remaining bedrooms.
The grounds are as impressive as the house itself: sweeping lawns, landscaped planting, a waterlily pond, and a lake with bridge to a central island create a tranquil setting. Outbuildings include a large timber barn with four stables, two garages, a workshop, and storage rooms, plus an additional open-fronted steel-framed barn (19m x 7m). Planning has been passed to convert the timber barn into a two-bedroom annexe, though it would also lend itself to an excellent office or leisure space.
