Located just 300m from Witham train station—with frequent fast services into London—The Old House is perfectly placed for both commuters and those working from home. Set within the highly sought after Chipping Hill conservation area, and just a short stroll from local amenities, this charming Grade II listed home beautifully blends its 17th century heritage with thoughtful modern enhancements.
Dating back to circa 1600, the property has been sympathetically extended and meticulously maintained, preserving its character while introducing contemporary comfort throughout.
The ground floor offers a wonderful sense of warmth and history. The cosy living room features exposed beams, characterful brickwork and a working open fireplace—an inviting space for relaxed evenings. A second reception room sits opposite, currently used as a playroom but ideal as a formal dining room or snug, giving great versatility to the layout. The stylish kitchen/diner is a real highlight, fitted with bespoke Shaker-style cabinetry by renowned local makers Humphrey Munson, complete with an electric Aga and underfloor heating. Beyond this, the striking double height sunroom fills the rear of the home with natural light, creating the perfect spot for morning coffee. A useful study sits just off the kitchen, offering an excellent work or study space.
Upstairs, there is a generous master and 2 double bedrooms. The dual aspect principal bedroom includes a walk-in wardrobe and direct access to a loft room on the floor above—ideal for storage, hobbies, or future potential. Bedrooms two and three both feature built in wardrobes and charming fireplaces (not currently in use). The beautifully appointed family bathroom includes a waterfall shower and underfloor heating, adding a touch of luxury.
The outside space is equally impressive. Set within grounds of approximately 0.41 acres (sts), the south facing garden offers a peaceful retreat with multiple areas to relax and enjoy. A well-equipped garden office provides an exceptional work from home solution within a tranquil spot, while the generous double garage and three additional parking spaces offer excellent practicality. A large patio with a wisteria covered pergola creates a stunning outdoor dining area. The garden also includes two sheds, a greenhouse, and a vegetable patch. Beyond a gate, a further spacious area features fruit trees and a dedicated firepit zone—ideal for summer evenings. The River Brain forms the southern boundary, enhancing the sense of tranquillity.
The Old House captures the charm of its period origins while offering everything needed for modern living—a rare opportunity in one of Witham’s most desirable settings.
