Nightingale Farm is a charming family home offering beautifully presented accommodation within an idyllic setting in a sought-after North Essex village. This property represents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking multi-generational living or additional income, thanks to the delightful two-bedroom detached annex, which serves as an ideal second dwelling.
Main House
The main house is a period farmhouse (not listed), enabling the current owners to enhance its original charm while incorporating modern updates. A recent extension has significantly improved the ground floor layout, adding a stunning reception room with captivating views of the gardens and open countryside.
A welcoming central porch leads into an inviting entrance hall, which seamlessly connects the ground-floor reception rooms and kitchen. The living room is an elegant space, featuring double doors that open onto a west-facing patio and a log burner, perfect for cozy winter evenings. Across the hall, a snug offers a serene retreat, with dual-aspect windows showcasing views of the rear garden and fields beyond.
The heart of the home lies in the open-plan dining room and kitchen, transformed by the recent extension into a spectacular living space. The dining room, currently a formal setting, is bathed in natural light from bi-fold doors that frame breathtaking views of the garden, paddock, and countryside. This space flows effortlessly into the country-style kitchen, which features exposed beams and a Rayburn cooker. Adjacent is a utility/boot room, fitted with quality cabinetry, a granite work surface, and space for appliances. A convenient downstairs WC and access to the rear garden complete this part of the home.
Upstairs, the first floor continues the theme of quality and comfort. The principal bedroom is a generous suite with fitted wardrobes, delightful views, and a well-appointed en-suite. Two additional double bedrooms also enjoy pleasant outlooks, and a family shower room serves this floor.
The Grounds
Set back from Brickhouse Road, Nightingale Farm is accessed via electric gates and a sweeping driveway leading to a spacious parking area. The property sits within approximately two acres of meticulously maintained gardens and a separate paddock. The beautiful gardens wrap around the house and are stocked with a variety of flora that burst into colour throughout the seasons. For entertaining, there is a large patio terrace perfectly situated to take in the setting sun over the paddock. Additional outbuildings include a log store, greenhouse and 7m x 3.5m field shelter.
The Cart Lodge
At the entrance to the property lies a detached two-bedroom cart lodge, perfect for use as an annex or a lucrative AirBnB rental. The lodge includes a spacious open-plan living area with a quality kitchen and log burner, a ground-floor shower room, and two large first-floor bedrooms. Heating is provided by a separate oil-fired boiler, and solar panels on the roof help minimize electricity costs. A private enclosed garden with a lawn, patio, and pergola complements the lodge.
