Ulting, Maldon, Essex CM9

Waverley is a double-fronted family home, extended to offer 1,857 sq ft of light-filled accommodation arranged over two floors. It sensitively combines modern amenities, quality fixtures and fittings and elegant décor with some period features, including high ceilings and original fireplaces.

The accommodation flows from a welcoming through reception hall with original tiled flooring, useful storage, a cloakroom, a door to a fitted utility room and a side lobby with garden access. It provides dual aspect sitting and snug rooms, both with high ceilings, picture rails and feature tiled open fireplaces, in the latter flanked on each side by bespoke shelving and storage. The ground floor accommodation is completed by a wooden-floored kitchen/dining/family room, almost 33ft in length and with glazing to all four aspects, flooding the area with natural light. The kitchen has a range of bespoke wall and base units, a breakfast bar, complementary worktops and splashbacks, a double Belfast sink and modern integrated appliances including a full-height wine chiller. It opens on one side into a dining area with a large bay window with window seating, a large vaulted sky lantern and bi-fold doors to a terrace. On the other side, the kitchen opens into a family area, also benefitting from a large bay with window seating and incorporating French doors to a further terrace.

Stairs rise from the reception hall to a generous first floor landing. It gives access to a vaulted principal bedroom with an exposed A frame beam, raised glazed French doors opening to the roof above the dining area and affording far-reaching views over neighbouring countryside, fitted storage and a contemporary en suite shower room with twin sinks. Two of the three remaining bedrooms have built-in storage, the third having an original fireplace. There is also a modern part-tiled family bathroom.

Set on a corner plot screened by mature hedging and trees, Waverley is approached through a five-bar gate over a gravelled driveway providing private parking areas and giving access to an outhouse, suitable for a variety of uses. The well-maintained wraparound garden is laid mainly to lawn interspersed with some mature trees. It features numerous seating areas and paved terraces accessible from the family and dining areas, both ideal for entertaining and al fresco dining and enjoying lovely views over surrounding countryside.
