2 bed detached house for sale

Keers Green, Nr Great Dunmow, Essex CM6

Cawdles enjoys a most attractive location set in the small hamlet of Keers Green which has a collection of period properties and dwellings. Most of the buildings are of some age and several are thatched.

The cottage is Grade II Listed and timber framed with plastered elevations. Significant improvements have been made over the years by the current owners, but still retains considerable character with an inglenook fireplace, exposed timbers and brick floor.

The property is approached via a gravelled "in and out" driveway and sits on a plot approaching 0.25 of an acre.

The property has a timber porch which leads to the lounge/diner which has a refurbished exposed brick inglenook fireplace with inset wood burner. There is brick floor throughout the lounge/diner and stairs rise to the first floor. The property is dual aspect with casement windows to front and rear aspects. There are exposed timbers throughout and studwork.

Moving through to the rear lobby, there is a door gaining access to the rear garden and a downstairs WC, then leading to a part-built kitchen with all appliances and cupboards freestanding, in turn leading through to a utility/pantry which has plumbing for white goods and additional storage.

Upstairs, there are exposed beams and studwork, triple aspect windows, 2 bedrooms (separated by studwork) and a un-finished bathroom.

Outside, to the front of the property is an "in and out" driveway and, to the left of the property, is where the septic tank is located. There is a brick built outbuilding and a couple of timber sheds at the foot of the garden. We also have a natural pond. The majority of the garden is laid to lawn and enclosed by mature trees and shrub borders. The gardens are directly south facing.

Agent's note: The thatch was re-done in July 2024. The property has been completely re-wired to first fix. All the casement windows have been refurbished. The chimney has been re-pointed and lengthened. Fireplace re-built and new log burner inserted (lined). The property is in the process of being lath and plastered throughout.
