4 bedroom detached house for sale

GUIDE PRICE £1,250,000 - £1,300,000

Willow Cottage is a charming 1924-built detached home, nestled in one of Ingatestone's most desirable roads on a south-west-facing plot of 0.25 acres, just off the High Street and within a short walk of the mainline station.

Set on a private road outside the conservation area, this property presents timeless character and offers immense potential for enhancement and extension (subject to planning consent). It is also available with no onward chain.

The house is constructed with traditional red brick in a classic Flemish bond, complemented by tall chimneys and a painted, timbered gable, lending it a Tudor-inspired aesthetic. The arched front door, a subtle nod to the 1920s, harmonises with the home's largely Victorian architectural influences. The property is screened by mature hedging and trees, and accessed via a private driveway leading to a detached double garage with a pitched roof.

Inside, the welcoming central hallway features a balustrade staircase and useful understairs storage. The dual-aspect, 20ft living room boasts a striking red brick fireplace and sliding doors that open into a conservatory with views of the garden. Adjacent to this, the spacious dining room offers a central hub for family gatherings. The kitchen includes a range of modern units, built-in ovens, a hob, and an extractor fan. It also connects to a handy pantry, a storeroom, and a cloakroom/WC, with a side door providing additional access to the garden and garage.

The first floor accommodates four well-proportioned double bedrooms, with the main bedroom featuring fitted wardrobes and bedroom furniture. A sizeable family bathroom, equipped with storage, is complemented by a separate, recently fitted WC.
