An opportunity to purchase a delightful Grade II listed property situated within the heart of Earls Colne. Includes off street parking, garage and a quaint garden.
Priory Farm Granary is a charming former granary that once formed part of Priory Farm, a historic working farm in the heart of the picturesque village of Earls Colne.
This beautifully converted home offers a seamless blend of period character and modern comfort. A welcoming entrance hall leads to the ground floor living spaces, with stairs rising to the first floor. The living room is full of character, featuring the original staircase that once accessed the hayloft—a nod to the building's Heritage. The space is generous and inviting, with a warm ambience and two useful storage cupboards tucked beneath the stairs.
Across the hall, you'll find a surprisingly spacious kitchen/dining room, fitted with a bespoke solid wood kitchen offering ample worktop space. Integrated appliances include an oven and electric hob, with space and plumbing for a washing machine. A solid oak stable door opens to the private courtyard garden. The ground floor bathroom is well-appointed, featuring a bath with shower over.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom (currently used as a sitting room) boasts striking exposed beams and enjoys a wonderful outlook over the village green. The second bedroom is a generous double, complete with fitted wardrobes and access to a convenient cloakroom.
Set back from Halstead Road, the property occupies a prominent position within the village. A resin driveway to the side offers parking for two vehicles. The home also benefits from a right of way to the rear, where a detached garage includes a door providing access directly into the garden.
The enclosed courtyard garden is a peaceful retreat—ideal for relaxing and enjoying the evening sun. Designed for low maintenance, it features attractive paving and a gate leading out to the rear.
