Description
Beautifully renovated family home on a quiet lane in a sought after village
With its striking façade featuring white elevations and a loggia with arched apertures, Hazeleigh is a home of creative composition, with interiors showcasing style and elegance. The neutral décor throughout offers an ambience of calm sophistication with the light and airy accommodation arranged across one level. The entrance hall gives access to a generous, double aspect drawing room which is centred around a feature fireplace and has a wall of glazed, bi-folding doors allowing a seamless transition to the paved terrace. Offering a convivial setting, the adjacent kitchen/dining room also provides a connection to the garden, extending the inside to the outside environment. Fitted with high quality cabinetry, topped with stone work surfaces, and with a range stove recess, the kitchen features a Belfast sink and an island unit which forms a subtle divide to the dining area.
The bedroom accommodation comprises a principal room with wardrobe storage and an en suite shower room with vintage-inspired fittings. There are two further bedrooms, one with modern en suite facilities, and an additional room which currently presents as a dressing room. With a stunning free-standing tub and a sink within a bespoke vanity unit, the beautifully-appointed family bathroom completes the accommodation on offer in this exquisite village home.
A brick walls fronts the lane with vehicular access onto a driveway of pavers which provides parking for several cars and leads to the garage, whilst low-level retaining walls form the edging to an area of lawn. A wide curved stairway with black railings rises to the entrance portal which links to the loggia walkway with matching railings to the archways. Extensive paved terracing extends across the rear of the home, linking to the smart outbuilding and to an al fresco dining spot beneath a timber pergola and alongside an outdoor fireplace. Incorporated within the paved setting is an outdoor pool, offering a sunny lounging area after a dip in the fresh, clear waters. There is a curving brick wall at the edge the terrace, with steps leading up to a grassed area featuring an ancient apple tree and providing a cool surface for children’s play. Situation
Riffhams Lane is located on the western fringes of charming Danbury village, with its quintessential village pond, and within easy reach of local amenities, including two convenience stores, a dental practice, pharmacy, coffee shops and public houses, as well as a primary school and a village hall. Chelmsford is within easy reach and provides a vibrant and bustling centre with historic architecture and excellent shopping options, along with the pedestrianised High Street. The mainline train station provides regular services for commuters into London Liverpool Street, Ipswich and Colchester, whilst road users have easy access to the A12, A414 and the M25. Well-regarded schooling in the vicinity includes Heathcote Preparatory School, New Hall School and Elm Green Preparatory School.
