Property description
Believed to have been built during the 1950’s by a farmer for his son this detached residence stands within a plot of 0.4 acres, affording a deep frontage and farmland views to the rear and side.
Under the current owners, Jeff and Valerie, the property has been enlarged by way of a double storey side extension incorporating the ground floor self contained annexe. This has previously been used to accommodate a relative and would ideally suit those buyers with a similar requirement. Jeff and Valerie have also added the conservatory and built a double garage.
The home has a homely cottage like atmosphere that you sense as soon as you step into the entrance hall, the hall in turn leads to an inner hall, sitting room and dining room. The sitting room has a brick fireplace with an open fire ensuring a cosy glow during the winter months, whilst double doors open to the conservatory, which provides an ideal space to sit and relax during the summer.
The kitchen is equipped with built in and integrated appliances, a chimney breast recess is home to a Rayburn Range, which also supplies heat to certain radiators and hot water, access from the kitchen is provided to the dining room, inner hall and utility room. Four bedrooms and two bathrooms make this an ideal family home, plus there is an additional room to the first floor that is used as a library, or an occasional bedroom.
Jeff and Valerie tell us that Epping Green has a community life and a village atmosphere, the local primary school has an excellent reputation and has been extended to meet demand, there is a village pub and Thai restaurant. Epping itself is only 3.9 miles away with its bustling high street, weekly market and underground link into London.
What the Owner says:
"Previously living in Woodford Green we were looking to move to a more semi rural environment” explains Jeff. Valerie continues “when we came to view this property we knew immediately that it was the one for us. We were firstly impressed by the deep frontage and then the views over farmland, it’s terrific to watch the landscape change throughout the year”.
Jeff adds, “The property also appealed to us as it offered potential to be extended and we needed a home with an annexe, or scope to create one. We built a double storey side extension, which incorporated the ground floor annexe we required".
Jeff continues "For those buyers who require more land we understand that there is a possibility to purchase additional land from the neighbouring farmer, subject to separate negotiations".
Jeff and Valerie conclude, “Living here for some 25 years has been excellent, it has been a great family home, in fact it is going to be a bit of a wrench to leave it but we are looking forward to retirement and a move to Devon”.
