Sawbridgeworth

Size is all important for a family house, certainly if its look at as a ‘long term’ investment and ‘home for the family to grow up in’. Thought to have been built around 1905 or thereabout ‘Frodsham’ offers space and character.

A solid painted wooden door open into a high ceiling entrance hall and off this are the three reception rooms. The two ‘living rooms’ have fireplaces and larger of the two opens into the gardens. Also off the hall is the cloakroom.

The dining room leads into a recently fitted kitchen with attractive units in a light pastel finish. Up above, there are five bedrooms, an en suite and family bathroom, then, up on the second floor the sixth bedroom or studio if preferred.

Well disguised to the right hand side of our clients’ home is a very useful two storey annex, totally independent, ideal either for dependant relative or possibly, an income stream from a private letting. Having its own Entrance this leads to a ground floor kitchen and stairs up to the living room and bedroom with an en suite. We understand the annexe is independently serviced from the main house.

The house is particularly well located in Sawbridgeworth, just 200 metres from shops, banks, and other amenities. There is a bus route to connect you directly to Stansted airport, the M11 is easily reached, and the main line rail station is so easy to reach and makes London Liverpool Street station a very easy commute.
One of the great advantages of this location is that you really are situated well, for ease and convenience to all these amenities and yet the house is removed from the road by its own drive, which provides access to the four houses situated here. The drive is tree lined and provides a lovely and perfect screen to the front of the house. The gardens also feel private and secluded and are enclosed by mature trees.

The house has the proportions one would expect from a Georgian style and still retains many of its original features even its original cast iron fireplaces. The annexe has recently been completely rebuilt and is in total sympathy to the house itself. It has its own front door and would be absolutely perfect for an elderly relative and older teenager or an au pair. It has a fully fitted kitchen, lounge, bedroom and shower room.
