Description
Restored farmhouse on the edge of Felsted with far-reaching views, and being sold with no chain.
Causeway House is listed as Grade II and is a significant timber-framed house with plastered elevations under a handmade red-clay tiled roof. The property has been the subject of restoration and improvement with the accommodation arranged over two levels providing beautifully presented interiors with a wealth of period features associated with properties of its age, including exposed timberwork and an original exposed red-brick fireplace. The property dates back in parts to the 1500s, constituting a valuable source of historical architecture.
In recent times the property has been thoughtfully enhanced, designed and extended providing flexible levels of accommodation, suited for extended family living and entertaining, with a converted cart lodge providing an ideal work-from-home space.
Causeway House is discreetly set back from the road over a sweeping driveway in delightful grounds of 0.38 of an acre with beautiful westerly countryside views.
There are four bedrooms including a grand principal bedroom with en suite bathroom and walk-in wardrobe. There is a separate family bathroom centred around a practical landing. Bedroom three provides a walk-in dressing room/nursery. A separate staircase leads to the upper level bedroom four.
The reception hall is positioned to the front of the house and is a welcoming space with doors opening to interconnecting reception rooms providing a wealth of period features. The sitting room is also located from the hall whilst to the rear, and benefitting from a westerly-facing aspect with views over the garden, is a further reception area, linking through to a stunning, recently fitted, kitchen/family room. Concluding the ground floor accommodation is a utility room, a further bathroom, reception and an inner lobby with stairs rising to the dressing room/nursery. This area could easily be self-contained from the house providing potential annexe accommodation.
