Middleton Road, Shenfield, Brentwood, CM15

This stunning Arts and Crafts property, originally constructed by the late Jack Durston in the 1920s, is a rare opportunity to acquire a unique family home in an extremely sought-after position in Old Shenfield. Sympathetically extended and restored by the current owners, this property has been lovingly restored to preserve the original character of the house and provides spacious family accommodation. The original Crittall windows have been replicated to blend the house with the extension and an oak wood floor reclaimed from an old Essex theatre of the same era runs throughout most of the ground floor. The master bedroom en-suite features a stunning copper floor-standing bath, reclaimed from the Egyptian Embassy, and a handmade bespoke kitchen overlooks the garden. The house also boasts a formal dining room, an L-shaped living room with a study/library area, a family room, a large walk-in pantry, laundry room and a breakfast room area off the kitchen. A semi-galleried landing leads to six bedrooms over two levels, and there is also a luxury bathroom/shower plus an additional wet room shower on the second floor. Externally, the gardens extend to 0.38 acre and are landscaped in various zones with a side garden, large lawn to the rear and two paved sun terraces. This is a truly unique property and an ideal opportunity for anyone looking for a special family home in a highly sought-after location. EPC C.
