Dating back to the 17th Century (circa 1620), this beautifully presented Grade II listed, semi-detached house offers a wonderful opportunity to purchase a very special village home with over 1300sqft of charming and characterful accommodation. The property retains some wonderful period features including inglenook fireplace, sash windows and exposed timbers. It has been decorated and furnished in a contemporary style that really blends well. The attention to detail and thought that has gone into the presentation and style of the delightful home has to be seen to be fully appreciated.

On the ground floor are two good-size reception rooms, a study and a lovely kitchen with an Aga and views of both the rear and side gardens. The dining room and kitchen have doors to the garden and there is also a ground floor shower room.

On the first floor are three bedrooms and a gorgeous family bathroom with roll-top bath. There is also extensive loft which would easily be convereted into a fourth bedroom (subject to relevant consents).

The property occupies a lovely position in this quiet village right opposite the village green with views across to the church spire. The house is set well back from the road with nicely landscaped front gardens and off-street gravelled parking for 2/3 cars. There is also access from Sages End Road to a garage, at the rear of the property, with parking to the front which could easily be converted (stp) into a home office/studio/gym. The rear gardens are deceptively large and really nicely secluded with well-maintained lawns and pleasant areas for al-fresco dining and relaxing. There is also an attractive, enclosed side garden with pretty summerhouse.

Helions Bumpstead is a pretty and peaceful village set in rolling Essex countryside between Castle Camps and Steeple Bumpstead. It has its own church, village hall, recreation/cricket ground and public house. There are local amenities in nearby Steeple Bumpstead including a convenience store/post office/petrol station, a primary school, two pubs, village hall and a recreation ground. Further facilities including supermarkets, cinema and sports centre can be found in nearby Haverhill (3 miles). The nearby, lovely market town of Saffron Walden offers excellent and varied shops, restaurants and cafes etc. For the commuter there is easy access to mainline rail services at Audley End, Whittlesford Parkway, Royston and Stansted Airport as well as a very good network of road links to Cambridge, A11, M11 and London.

Agents Note: The property is subject to a Flying Freehold with the neighbouring property (the property was divided in two in the 1920s) for which the owner has a Flying Freehold Indemnity.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on June 22, 2022

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. 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
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on June 22, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). 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
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
