The Old Press is a beautiful, character property that occupies a wonderful position on the edge of Waltham St Lawrence. The house has evolved over the years and now provides stylish and versatile accommodation with the added benefit of a separate annexe and gardens approaching 1 acre.

The house is approached via electric gates, and a large driveway provides ample parking for several cars. On entering the home, the welcoming hallway has beautiful ceramic floors and high ceilings, and there is plenty of space for coats and shoes. From here, double doors open into the kitchen, a lovely room which flows through to the orangery, providing a beautiful dining area with views and access to the garden via two sets of French windows. The kitchen has a comprehensive range of appliances, eye and base level units, an electric Aga and a functional central island with a sink and additional storage. Two reception rooms are positioned on either side of the kitchen; both have a wood-burning stove, and the other is accessed via the dining
room/orangery and makes a lovely snug. There is underfloor heating in several rooms, and the heating is served by a new oil boiler. The property is double-glazed throughout.
A secondary hallway with French windows opening on to the garden leads through to the study and two excellent bedrooms. One bedroom has an attractive bay window looking over the garden, and the other has a stunning en suite shower room and fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom has fitted cupboards with shelving, and there is a separate shower room that serves bedroom three, which also has fitted storage. At the back of the house, there is a large utility room complete with storage, an integrated washer/dryer, a sink, a dog shower, and a door that provides access to the garden.
On the first floor, the principal bedroom suite is a well-proportioned room with fitted wardrobes and a generous en suite bathroom with a large central bath and separate shower. Bedroom two is across the hallway and again benefits from fitted wardrobes and an en suite shower room.

The separate annexe is an ideal space for visitors or relatives, and it has lovely accommodation consisting of a bedroom, bathroom, and a delightful open-plan kitchen/living room.

The attractive gardens have a wonderful selection of mature trees, evergreen hedges and well-stocked flower beds outside. There are large expanses of lawn, a vegetable garden and a high degree of privacy with no close neighbours.
