Property description
A deceptively spacious family residence tranquilly located within one of Loughton's most prestigious residential areas, with far reaching views from its elevated position overlooking Epping Forest. The property sits within fabulous grounds approaching 3 acres which include beautiful gardens, tennis court, bluebell wood, and stabling with tack and feed room. The gated frontage provides parking for numerous vehicles and serves a large car port. The split-level house, built in the 1960s, has been immaculately maintained throughout and offers spacious, bright and airy accommodation with a generous supply of picture windows affording views over the beautiful grounds and beyond. Arranged over three floors, the house takes advantage of the natural slope of the land by allowing a ground floor with entrance hall, inner hallway, cloakroom, utility/store room leading to the elevated kitchen/breakfast room, dining room and beautiful triple aspect formal lounge giving elevated majestic views across the forest. Stairs lead downstairs to a ground floor wing with three bedrooms, an en suite and a family shower room, whilst a further staircase leads to two more ground floor bedrooms, sitting room, study/ 6th bedroom and a cloakroom. The opportunity to enjoy sunsets across the expanse of the forest and yet being within easy reach of Central line tube station means this residence could particularly appeal to those with busy lifestyles looking for a commutable semi-rural retreat. A busy town centre offering a good selection of shops, restaurants and a leisure centre is within easy reach, and the M25 and M11 motorways are just a short distance away.
This unique property has come to the market for the first time in 40 years and viewing is strongly recommended in order to fully appreciate all that it has to offer.
