Description

Nestled in the picturesque village of Little Bardfield, this historic Grade II listed country home presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment. Spanning approximately 3,630 square feet, this detached residence features five well-proportioned bedrooms and a mix of contemporary living spaces paired with charming period details. The layout includes a welcoming entrance hall, expansive reception areas, and a modern open plan kitchen and dining room adorned with traditional timber beams—perfect for family gatherings. Additional practical spaces such as a utility room, boot room, and ground floor cloakroom enhance functionality. The first floor showcases bright bedrooms, including a principal suite complete with dressing area and en-suite bathroom, along with two further bathrooms for guest use. Externally, the property boasts various outbuildings including a games room/bar, adding potential for leisure or entertainment spaces. A certified cricket wicket sits within the rear paddock, ideal for sports enthusiasts. The outdoor space also features a patio leading to the lawn, alongside an intricately designed topiary garden at the front. Notably, there is a double garage which previously had planning permission for conversion into an annexe (with permission expiring August 2025), providing further scope for expansion or rental income potential. Two additional garage/workshops offer ample storage solutions and parking opportunities with an electric car charging point already installed. With its rich historical backdrop and modern conveniences, this property is not only a beautiful home but also represents significant investment potential in a charming village setting close to larger communities like Finchingfield and Thaxted that provide further amenities and scenic walks.
