The Benson family name has been a main stay in the Battlesbridge history since the early 1800's, not just owning Hanover, Hawk Lane but also owning Benson bakery which sits just to the front of the land of this property.
The current owner took residence in 2011, taking her from her late parents has completely restored this gorgeous 3 bedroom detached bungalow to a rustic cottage style interior providing a warm cosy feeling throughout. Throughout the modernisation project, the curent owner explained to me how she managedto live in the property, with buckets collecting water and taking over 2 years to finish.
The property is enveloped by just over half an acre of land, steeped in history, to the front of the property there's a private lane which then opens up onto a huge driveway and a double length detached garage. There's an abundance of space for parking.
