Property description
Situated in a delightful position overlooking farmland to the front and side, Elm Cottage offers exceptional period charm in a rural setting, yet within only 1.5 miles of Ingatestone Railway Station, 3 miles from Shenfield Station with the much anticipated Crossrail service due in 2018 and just a 5 minute drive from the A12.
Occupying a plot of just over 0.25 of an acre with a rear garden measuring approx. 185ft in length, the cottage offers a good level of accommodation to include a cosy sitting room with fireplace and exposed timbers, dining room, lounge, conservatory and a good size kitchen/breakfast room to the ground floor, whilst the first floor offers three bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property also offers off street parking for up to 3/4 cars.
This is a rare opportunity to purchase a countryside home within close proximity of local towns, villages, commuter stations (including Shenfield within 3 miles) and excellent local schools, including the catchment Anglo European school in Ingatestone and local Mountnessing C of E Primary.
