Occupying a peaceful position along a quiet country lane on the outskirts of Chappel, The Acacias is a well-proportioned two-bedroom home enjoying generous accommodation, a large established garden and far-reaching views across open countryside to the front.
Bacons Lane serves only the neighbouring farm and properties along the lane, resulting in very little passing traffic and giving the house a particularly private, rural feel.
The accommodation extends to approximately 1,276 sq ft and includes two good-sized reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast room, a ground-floor shower room and two particularly generous first-floor bedrooms.
The front door opens into an entrance area providing access to the principal ground-floor rooms. The sitting room is a well-proportioned reception room, while the adjoining dining room provides a separate entertaining space and links through towards the rear of the house.
The kitchen/breakfast room provides a good amount of space for both cooking and informal dining, with access towards the rear garden. A useful lean-to offers further ancillary space, while the ground floor is completed by a shower room.
On the first floor, the landing provides access to two substantial bedrooms, with the principal bedroom benefiting from extensive built-in storage. A particularly spacious family bathroom, complete with freestanding bath, serves the first floor.
Outside, the property enjoys a generous rear garden, predominantly laid to lawn with mature hedging, trees and established planting providing a high degree of privacy. There is also vehicular access into the rear garden, adding further flexibility.
The property further benefits from a good-sized single garage as well as a separate outbuilding, which could lend itself well to use as a home office, studio, hobby room or similar, subject to any necessary consents.
One of the property's most notable features is its outlook to the front, with attractive far-reaching views across open farmland and the surrounding countryside.
The setting combines the benefits of rural living with convenient access to the nearby villages of Chappel and Great Tey, making the property an appealing option for buyers looking for space, privacy and a genuine countryside position.
Location
Chappel is a picturesque village situated in the beautiful Colne Valley, approximately seven miles west of Colchester. Surrounded by attractive countryside, the village is known for its historic character, peaceful setting and the impressive Victorian Chappel Viaduct, which spans the River Colne.
The village offers a good range of local amenities, including a village pub, post office and general store, village hall and parish church. The nearby Chappel & Wakes Colne railway station provides services along the Gainsborough Line, with connections to Marks Tey for onward services towards Colchester, London and Ipswich. The station is also home to the East Anglian Railway Museum, which hosts a variety of events throughout the year.
There are plenty of opportunities to enjoy the surrounding countryside, with riverside walks, open green spaces and the Essex Way nearby. The combination of rural surroundings, village community and convenient access to Colchester makes Chappel an appealing location for those looking for a quieter way of life within easy reach of the town.
