6 Bedroom Detached House for sale in Essex

4 6 3

A handsome Grade II listed country home extending to circa 6,500 sq ft with an extensive range of outbuildings, 5.7 acres, tennis court and stunning views over rolling countryside.

Bart Hall is a fine country residence situated on a peaceful lane occupying an elevated position with stunning countryside views. The Grade II listed house has been transformed by the current owners and now offers a wonderful layout with natural light flooding each room.

The ground floor flows pleasingly from the generous hallways, forming the perfect layout for family living. As with any great country residence, the kitchen with dinning at Bart Hall is the hub of the home. Four large sash windows give excellent light to the well appointed bespoke kitchen with 4 oven Aga. There is ample space for a large table and sofa beside the working fireplace.

There are four reception rooms with each room offering a different aspect of the well-kept gardens. The elegant drawing room has a fine period marble fireplace and full height bay with double doors to terrace. The generous sitting room has double doors in the centre of wall to wall windows giving access to a terrace and offering a pleasant aspect. Through the sitting room is the office / playroom with a small fireplace and original bread oven. The well proportioned dining room has a fine marble fireplace and could accommodate a table of 12-15ft making this room ideal for entertaining friends and family.

A practical feature of the ground floor is the large utility room, fitted with a range of storage options, sink, granite worktops and a cloakroom. Leading off from this is a good sized porch/boot room to patio outside. A large cellar can be accessed from the hall. An ornate turning staircase leads to a large landing, flooded with light via a roof lantern. There is a second staircase to the front of the house. The principal bedroom is a fine room and enjoys a beautiful bay window. There is a luxury en-suite and dressing room with excellent hanging storage that could also be used as a nursery.

Across the rest of the first floor are five large bedrooms, each with an attractive aspect, good light, fitted wardrobes and bespoke bookcases over covered radiators. The bedrooms are served by a family bathroom and a separate shower room. The latter could lend itself to becoming a guest en-suite. An enclosed staircase leads up to a large loft space designed to be converted into an additional living space if required.

All approaches to Bart Hall present rural, scenic views. The property offers mature trees and hedging. Through the gate the gravel drive opens to a large courtyard.

Opposite the hall is a range of outbuildings offering excellent potential for additional accommodation and storage. The imposing Essex barn, currently used as storage, is the ideal building to convert into additional living accommodation or a leisure complex. It is worth noting that the barn previously had permission to be converted, however this planning has lapsed. To the side of the barn is a fabulous games room, with full size snooker table and plenty of room for seating. Attached to the games room is a stable, potting shed and garden toilet. There is plenty of storage within the Old Forge, Pump House and large garage.

As you wander around the grounds at Bart Hall, you are immediately drawn in by the simply wonderful views on offer, a feature hard to find in the area. The formal gardens are a lovely space to unwind with plenty of room for entertaining guests in the summer. The gardens wrap around the hall with well tended box hedging and a large terrace perfectly positioned to take in the impressive views across the valley.

In all there are around 5.7 acres with the majority of the land being open pasture.
