Spectacular four/five bedroom apartment spanning 2,400 sq ft and including a garage / home office and parking.
Marchants is ideally located in the heart of Earls Colne High Street, offering distinctive accommodation across two floors. This remarkable period property, believed to be partly Grade II Listed, boasts a stunning 30-foot vaulted sitting room with origins dating back to the 14th century.
Access to the property is from the rear, with a staircase leading to the first floor, secured by a gate that opens to decked courtyard gardens arranged over two levels, ensuring complete privacy from neighbouring properties. The welcoming entrance hall leads into the property and links the kitchen breakfast room and cloakroom to the rest of the 2,400 square feet of accommodation. Along the entrance hall you pass a multiple purpose room, currently a snug but can also be used as an occasional bedroom for guests.
The rear lobby, with exposed beams, provides access to the spectacular 30 foot vaulted sitting room, featuring an array of exposed beams and a multi-fuel burner. Additionally, this floor offers three further double bedrooms and an office. On the second floor, the principal bedroom includes a large en-suite bath/shower room and excellent storage within an eave's cupboard.
Externally, there is off-road parking at the rear and access to a garage / workshop and games room. There is also a decked courtyard which accommodates a table and chairs, with steps up to a separate decked area surrounded by a wall and a woven wooden enclosure, ensuring total privacy. This area offers views over Earls Colne and is ideal for alfresco dining.
