High Road, Orsett RM16

Circa 16th Century Grade II Listed Character Property In The Heart Of Orsett Village

Steeped in history and brimming with character, this five bedroom Grade II listed detached home on the High Road is a true landmark within Orsett Village. Dating back to the 16th century, with part of the home formerly being the village butchers, it has been lovingly preserved and offers a rare chance to own a genuine piece of the village’s heritage. From exposed wooden beams and brick fireplaces to traditional sash windows, charm and character can be found at every turn.

On the ground floor, the property unfolds with three spacious reception rooms, each offering flexibility for family life or entertaining, alongside a kitchen/breakfast room with central island unit. A utility area and convenient ground floor shower room add further practicality too. Upstairs, there are five generously sized bedrooms, each with its own character and outlook, as well as a large family bathroom. With space and versatility in abundance, the home can adapt to suit the needs of growing families or those who simply love the idea of living in a home with history woven into its walls.

To the rear, the south-facing garden stretches approximately 130ft, creating a wonderful setting for outdoor living whilst two barns provide unique additional spaces. One is currently used as a games room and bar area, whilst the other for storage. Further to this, there is a detached double garage and a private parking area, ensuring both convenience and privacy.

Externally, the property sits proudly on the High Road, just a stone’s throw from the village church, popular local pubs, and a convenience shop. Orsett itself is well-served, with a doctors’ surgery, Orsett Hospital, primary school, playing fields, and a strong sense of community. For commuters, the village enjoys easy access to the A13, M25 and A127, with nearby train stations including West Horndon offering direct links into London Fenchurch Street.

This property offers the opportunity to acquire a true piece of Orsett Village history, a home rich in character, set within a semi-rural, community-focused village, yet perfectly placed for modern family living and commuting.
