4 bed detached house for sale

Cole End Lane, Sewards End, Saffron Walden, Essex CB10

The property is a distinctive and highly individual detached period home containing all the charm and character expected of a property of this period, located in this delightful setting on a no-through country lane just outside the main centre of Sewards End. The property provides spacious and versatile living accommodation complemented by some lovely exposed internal timbers and feature fireplaces.

The front door opens into an entrance hall with the principal sitting room set to one side forming a broad L-shape with windows looking out to the front drawing in natural light, exposed beams and timbers and impressive inglenook fireplace. A rear hallway has a terracotta tiled floor with stairs rising to the first floor, a washroom and WC are set to one side. A formal dining room, again, features a wealth of exposed beams and timbers and enjoys a dual aspect, in addition a further reception room creates a most attractive snug with door leading from the entrance hall, dual aspect, exposed beams and timbers and brick fireplace.

The kitchen/breakfast room provides ample space for casual dining and contains a range of storage cupboards, tiled worktops, attractive tile floor, oil fired Aga, integrated double oven, dishwasher and hob with extractor fan over.

Upstairs, the first floor landing leads to 4 generously proportioned bedrooms, each with their own individual style, semi-vaulted ceilings and exposed timbers. Just off the landing sits the principal bathroom which contains a 3-piece suite, separate WC and shower room.

Outside, the property is set well back from the road behind a carriage driveway enclosed by 5-bar gates, this being bordered by shaped lawns which enclose the front garden area and extend alongside the house. The entrance driveway provides off-street parking for numerous vehicles and also gives access to a detached garage which sits to the rear. Gardens extend further behind the garage, again all being laid to lawn with the whole garden area itself featuring an array of mature plants, shrubs and trees creating a mature and nicely enclosed outside space, with the whole plot extending to about 0.62 of an acre.
