The Manor House occupies a private setting within this sought-after location of Stansted Mountfitchet.

Within the grounds is a sizeable garage block offering stabling space, together with a separate Tennis Court.

Entering into the large entrance hallway with logburner, there are four spacious reception rooms offering features of the original property such as open fireplaces, large picture windows, window shutters, high ceilings, feature cornicing, wall panelling and French doors to enjoy open vistas of the gardens. There is a shower room and inner Butlers pantry on this level with steps down to the lower ground floor. This basement level provides the kitchen/breakfast room, additional laundry room/utility/boot room and three basement rooms providing ample space for further living/gym/studio space featuring exposed beams, red brick fireplace opening and newly tiled floor.

To the first floor level here is a central principal bedroom with large en-suite bathroom and dressing room. From the main landing are a further five double bedrooms, one extending to 20ft x 20ft., a further bathroom and shower room. Another staircase leads up to the principal bedroom and three further annex/bedrooms with a further bathroom. Stairs lead up from the main landing to the second floor level which offers three bedrooms. Flooded with natural light and offering open views the bedrooms are spacious with some of the bedrooms offer built-in wardrobes with further storage cupboards.

The main residence can be re-configured to suit a large family or multi-generational living offering a unique opportunity to live in this delightful semi-rural setting with good schools and facilities close by and access to excellent transport links from the nearby railway station, M11 and Stansted Airport.

The Coach House adjacent is set within its own gated courtyard offers potential to convert to a separate Annex dwelling (STPP) and currently provides garaging, stabling and storage space, with a red brick wall and five bar gated entrance.

The parkland grounds feature well tended lawns, specimen and large established trees, a Tennis Court and an outside wc. Immediately behind the main house is an extensive sun terrace.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
