Description

This exceptional four-bedroom detached home presents a unique development opportunity, inviting savvy investors and families alike to reimagine its potential. With full planning permission secured for an impressive 4,500 sq ft modern luxury residence (details available under UTT/22/3206/HHF), this property offers a strong foundation for substantial enhancement. Moreover, preliminary discussions indicate that constructing two new dwellings on the menage and stables area may also be feasible. The property features an intelligent layout with four generously sized double bedrooms; the master suite includes an en-suite bathroom. Three distinct reception rooms enhance the home's appeal, with the first two featuring fireplaces that add character and warmth, while the third presents lovely views of the garden. The kitchen is naturally illuminated and spacious enough to incorporate a dining area, making it an ideal space for family gatherings. Set on a substantial plot of approximately five acres, the property is bordered by stock-fenced paddocks and encompasses various outbuildings as well as stables, providing significant outdoor space ripe for further development opportunities. Located in Thaxted, residents will enjoy proximity to local amenities, parks, historical attractions, and a range of walking and cycling routes — making this area attractive for both families seeking recreational options and investors aiming for promising returns. With its unique charm bolstered by features such as cozy fireplaces, this property represents a rare opportunity to create a customized dream home or capitalize on its prime development potential.
