Spacious four bedroom detached house situated within an exclusive gated community a short walk from the picturesque village of Coggeshall.
The White House is a sympathetically designed residence located within the former grounds of Grange Barn, a Grade I listed, 13th century barn part of the National Trust portfolio.
The weather boarded house has a handsome façade with a glass porch opening through to a spacious entrance hall. The quality that resonates through the property is evident from the moment you enter and the central hall creates a balanced layout that flows seamlessly. A large living room has a lovely outlook over the manicured gardens and features a log burner. A second sitting room offers a flexible room and works well as an office or playroom. Across the hall and through double doors is the dining room, a large space perfect for entertaining friends and family.
The kitchen is perfectly positioned next to the dining room and is a simply stunning space. A handmade, bespoke kitchen has been expertly designed, creating a highly functional kitchen with exceptional attention to detail. The island unit creates a large working space with a breakfast bar making this a sociable place to be. No expense has been spared with the appliances and a pantry cupboard provides a large space with hand crafted shelving. A utility room, with matching kitchen units provides space for washing facilities and links through to a rear courtyard.
The impressive accommodation continues onto the first floor where a bright landing leads to the well appointed bedrooms. The principal bedroom has been carefully remodelled creating a lovely bedroom area with a luxurious en-suite shower leading to a dressing room fitted with a large range of 'Nolte' wardrobes.
Next to the principal bedroom is a beautiful family bathroom featuring a shower and bath by Albion Bath company. Across the galleried landing is bedroom two, a double bedroom with an en-suite shower room. There are two further double bedrooms with fitted wardrobes in bedroom three and a study landing.
Outside the house, the property features off street parking for several cars, a double garage and a second garage currently used as a gym.
The garden is a pleasant space to relax. A patio terrace extends from the living room with steps leading down to an immaculate lawn. Mature hedging forms the rear boundary and creates a secluded feel within the garden. To the side of the patio is a lower terrace set under a stunning wisteria covered pergola and there is a second outside dining area that captures the setting sun in the summer.
Coggeshall is a quaint and highly regarded village renowned for its listed buildings and dates back to at least Saxon times. It retains a real community spirit with activities and social groups attractive to all ages.
There are regular events held by the community and the Parish Council which attract visitors from afar. There are also a variety of shops, pubs, a post office and highly regarded restaurants. There is comprehensive schooling including the Honywood Community Science Secondary School, St Peter’s Primary School and the Montessori nursery “Absolute Angels”.
The village holds a market every Thursday which has been a regular event since 1256. Kelvedon mainline station is within 3 miles and the Coggeshall community bus makes regular trips in mornings and evenings which many commuters find an essential service. The nearby A12 and A120 provide access to other parts of the region notably Colchester, Chelmsford, Braintree and Stansted Airport.
