Attractive red-brick Edwardian family home on the edge of Felsted.
Description
Hillside is a beautifully presented detached four bedroom, family home occupying a prominent, edge-of-village setting, enjoying light-filled accommodation and occupying a plot of about 0.3 of an acre.
Built in 1901 and originally an integral building for 'Ridleys Brewery’, Hillside enjoys attractive red-brick elevations with tall sash windows and Tudor mock timbering to the gable, a prominent and distinguished feature for properties of this period.
The property has been extensively enhanced and extended with close attention to detail, tastefully decorated in neutral tones throughout. The property is set back from the road, sitting comfortably in its plot, incorporating a detached studio, store room and workshop.
The property is entered from the front into an inviting entrance hall, with turning staircase rising to the first floor with storage below. There is a discreetly positioned cloakroom and a rear lobby with utility facilities including a washing machine, a fridge/freezer and space for a tumble dryer. The lobby also provides rear external access. There are two well-proportioned, south-facing receptions room with ornate fireplaces and views over the garden and fields beyond. The heart of the home is the kitchen/family room which is a stunning space of open design, comprising a collection of light-coloured units, worksurfaces and integrated appliances. The reception area has been thoughtfully configured providing dining and seating areas with two sets of bi-folding doors opening to the garden. The first floor is equally as charming offering four bedrooms, a family bathroom and a separate shower room. The principal bedroom suite is located to the side of the house and provides a luxury en suite shower room. All fireplaces, except one, are original Edwardian.
The property occupies a practical-shaped plot of about 0.3 of an acre, principally laid to lawn with curved terrace extending from the immediate rear of the building. To the side of plot is a very useful studio offering an ideal work-from-home space, adjoining store room, workshop and WC.
Services
Mains water, oil-fired heating and private drainage (compliant).
Location
Hillside is situated to the south of Felsted in the Hamlet of Hartford End and in between the villages of Ford End and Littley Green. The property provides nearby access to miles of footpaths and bridleways over rolling countryside and the River Chelmer. The Flitch Way borders the village of Felsted, offering an important greenway and wildlife corridor between Braintree and Bishop’s Stortford.
The nearby village of Felsted (about 2 miles) and the market town of Great Dunmow (about 7.7 miles) provide the local shopping facilities. There is a more extensive range of recreational, leisure and educational facilities at Chelmsford.
The popular Compasses pub, located in Littley Green is a local draw, full of tradition and character. The Green Man, located in the neighbouring hamlet of Howe Street and run by the Michelin Star Chef Galvin brothers, as the Galvin Green Man, is an award-winning, Bib Gourmand British pub and modern restaurant.
The area is well served by both state and private schools with a primary and pre-school at Felsted, together with the renowned Felsted School for boys and girls from age 4-18. There are secondary schools at Dunmow and Chelmsford and further primary schools in Great Waltham and Ford End.
For the commuter there are railway stations at Braintree, Chelmsford and Stansted Airport to London Liverpool Street, and access on to the A120 linking with the M11 (junction 8) at Bishop's Stortford.
