Summary

Nestled in the picturesque heart of the sought-after village of Halstead, this exquisite detached Georgian cottage offers unrivalled charm and character.

Thoughtfully laid out, the cottage presents three well-proportioned bedrooms, inviting restful nights and peaceful mornings. Two spacious reception rooms provide abundant space for both relaxing with family and entertaining guests, while the fully fitted kitchen comes complete with quality appliances—perfect for keen cooks and busy households alike. The expansive family bathroom has been elegantly modernised and boasts a luxurious double shower, finished with stylish fittings.

Outside, the tranquil wrap-around garden delivers a private sanctuary for leisurely afternoons, al fresco dining or gardening enthusiasts. The property also benefits from a dropped kerb to the rear, offering highly practical garden access via Clarks Lane.

This rarely available home truly shines with its village location in an area renowned for serene rural beauty as well as exceptional accessibility. The vibrant village community offers a wealth of amenities including a primary school, two popular garden centres, local shops, and traditional country pubs. With stunning countryside and woodland all around, there are countless opportunities for scenic walks right on your doorstep.
