Nestled in the historic village of Layer Marney
Tucked away in the charming village of Layer Marney, this impressive four bedroom detached home offers a perfect blend of character, modern efficiency, and generous living space. Best known for its historic Tudor tower, Layer Marney is surrounded by beautiful countryside, offering a peaceful rural lifestyle while being just a short drive from Tiptree and Colchester. Both towns provide an excellent range of shops, supermarkets, schools, and amenities, with Colchester offering mainline rail links to London Liverpool Street and easy access to the A12 for commuters.
Internally, the home is thoughtfully designed for family living. The welcoming entrance hall leads to a spacious living room featuring a log burner, creating a cosy atmosphere on colder days. The expansive kitchen / breakfast room is ideal for entertaining or everyday dining, with ample storage and workspace. A bright conservatory extends the living area, offering flexibility as a playroom, home office, or relaxing retreat. A convenient cloakroom completes the ground floor.
The first floor boasts a main bedroom with its own en-suite shower room and dedicated dressing area. A second bedroom also benefits from an en-suite, providing extra comfort for family or guests. On the top floor, two additional bedrooms are complemented by a well-appointed family bathroom, ensuring plenty of space for the whole household.
Externally, the property features off-road parking and a versatile workshop, perfect for use as a home office, studio, or hobby space. A separate external utility room adds to the homes practicality, while the beautifully maintained gardens to the side and rear offer a peaceful space for outdoor dining, relaxation, or gardening enthusiasts. Designed with energy efficiency in mind, the home benefits from an air source heat pump and solar panels, helping to reduce utility costs.
