This charming period semi-detached cottage, with its picturesque weatherboarded exterior, offers four-bedroom accommodation and stunning views over adjoining farmland. Nestled in a quaint countryside lane that branches off Rayleigh Road, it provides a serene semi-rural atmosphere just 2.3 miles from Shenfield, where you can access a mainline railway station with direct links to London, including the Elizabeth Line to the West End and Heathrow Airport. Originally believed to be a former farmworker's cottage of the adjacent Ellices Farm, the property exudes character and warmth. The charming layout includes an entrance lobby, a cozy living room featuring exposed beams and a fireplace and a wood-fronted, painted kitchen equipped with built-in appliances. The breakfast room, with its vaulted ceiling, leads to a side outdoor-kitchen and courtyard area, perfect for al fresco dining. The ground floor also includes a convenient cloakroom. On the first floor, you’ll find three bedrooms and a family bathroom. A staircase leads to a second-floor bedroom, with low level skylight windows that offer views over the open countryside. Outside, the beautifully landscaped cottage-style garden features a generous lawn, alongside a garden shed, greenhouse, and an attractive outbuilding complete with bi-fold doors, wood flooring, and a storage room. This versatile space would make an ideal home office or gym. The cottage is ideally located near popular schools (subject to acceptance), local shops and Hutton Country Park. EPC D.
