Beautiful Village Home, Fully Refurbished, Driveway & Landscaped Garden
Nestled within the sought-after village of Barnston, this exceptional detached residence has been beautifully renovated throughout to create a truly unique home, effortlessly combining character, luxury and modern living.
Occupying a generous plot with an extensive driveway providing parking for four to five vehicles, Hillington immediately impresses with its striking kerb appeal, enhanced by new render, cladding and external finishes in the timeless Farrow & Ball shade of Wimborne White, together with new fascias, soffits and guttering.
Stepping inside, the quality of the renovation is evident at every turn. Original 1930s panelling in the hallway sits seamlessly alongside contemporary upgrades including soundproof double glazing, plantation shutters, new plumbing, electrics and boiler, creating a home that offers both charm and peace of mind.
At the heart of the property lies the stunning kitchen and dining room, designed with entertaining in mind. Fitted in 2022 with a premium Wren Infinity Plus kitchen, the space features granite worktops, Italian stone flooring and a beautiful bespoke arched window above the sink. A spectacular four-metre bi-fold door opens onto the landscaped gardens beyond, creating the perfect flow between indoor and outdoor living. The property offers two generous reception rooms, both beautifully appointed and versatile in their use. The principal reception room currently serves as a home office and benefits from two large bay windows, a recently installed log burner with granite hearth and a bespoke built-in window seat providing additional storage. The second reception room, currently arranged as a snug, enjoys views over the garden and features a gas fire with granite hearth, creating a warm and inviting retreat. A conveniently positioned ground floor cloakroom and WC completes the downstairs accommodation.
Upstairs, the property continues to impress with two substantial double bedrooms, each benefitting from its own en-suite bathroom. The principal suite enjoys an original fireplace, a walk-in wardrobe created within a newly constructed dormer complete with skylight, loft storage and an en-suite bathroom comprising bath with shower attachment, wash basin and WC. The second bedroom also features an original fireplace together with an en-suite shower room.
Outside, the beautifully landscaped gardens have been thoughtfully designed to provide a low-maintenance yet stunning outdoor space to enjoy throughout the seasons. Approximately 100 square metres of Indian sandstone paving wraps around the property, complemented by established shrubs and trees, two circular artificial lawns, outdoor lighting and external power points. A pergola creates the perfect setting for al fresco dining, while multiple seating areas connected by pathways allow the garden to be enjoyed from morning sunshine through to the evening.
The location is equally impressive. Barnston is widely regarded as one of the area's most desirable villages, offering a welcoming community atmosphere and immediate access to picturesque countryside walks, woodland trails and cycling routes. The surrounding area is home to charming villages, traditional country pubs and farmers' markets, while Great Dunmow is within walking distance and provides an excellent range of shops, restaurants and amenities.
For commuters, the property offers excellent connectivity with easy access to the A120 and M11, regular bus services to Chelmsford, Great Dunmow and Stansted Airport, and London Stansted Airport itself just ten minutes away. Braintree, Bishop's Stortford and Chelmsford are all within easy reach for shopping, dining and leisure facilities.
A truly turn-key home of exceptional quality in a highly desirable village setting, Hillington offers a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully finished detached home ready to be enjoyed from day one.
