Nestled in a delightful Essex village, this unlisted, 300-year-old detached period cottage represents a remarkable blend of historical charm and modern elegance. Immaculately presented, the home caters superbly to couples and families alike, seeking a tranquil rural lifestyle without sacrificing contemporary comforts.

Upon arrival, you're greeted by an inviting porch that opens into a welcoming hallway, with the first floor just a staircase away. The heart of the home is a cosy sitting room, complete with a warming red brick fireplace housing a log burner, a bay window flooding the space with natural light, and French doors leading to a secluded patio—perfect for out door entertaining.

Entertaining is a breeze in the separate dining room, also featuring a bay window that overlooks the stunning wrap-around gardens. The kitchen, updated five years ago with chic shaker style units and an island, boasts an integrated fridge, freezer, and a Belling range-style cooker, alongside a charming stable door opening to the verdant outdoors.

The practicalities are well catered for with a utility room hosting the oil boiler and laundry facilities, alongside a ground floor bathroom complete with both bath and shower cubicle. Upstairs, a generous landing unfolds to reveal three double bedrooms, a single bedroom, and a family bathroom with panel bath and Shower cubicle, each meticulously designed to ensure restful slumber.

The property sits proudly on over a quarter-acre plot, with gardens that inspire outdoor living, featuring lush lawns, vibrant flower beds, a picturesque sandstone patio and a summer house. A detached double garage, with power and light, plus a block-paved driveway offering ample parking, adds to the allure. A quaint shed, tucked away in the garden, offers additional storage or a potential hobby space. This is a unique opportunity to own a piece of the countryside's legacy, fashioned for the modern family.
