Wellington Hill, High Beach, Essex, IG10

Located close to Epping Forest with stunning views, this house has been superbly updated and redesigned by the current owners with no expense spared. While their plans may have changed it means this gorgeous house is ready for new owners to move straight into. It is approached through wrought iron electric gates onto a large block paved driveway flanked by high hedges and parking for half dozen cars. There is also a high quality hardwood double cart lodge with a pitched roof.

A covered porch with impressive solid wood front door opens to the hallway with a staircase to the first floor, a cloakroom and double glass doors to the awe-inspiring lounge/dining area that has beautiful herringbone parquet flooring and a wall of bi-fold doors to the terrace. While the modern multi fuel burner with an impressive oak mantle is just the place to sit around on a cold winter's evening. The spacious kitchen has an inset range cooker surrounded by a charming brick arch and bespoke units with granite worktops housing a variety of appliances including an American style fridge freezer and a dishwasher as well as a central island with a wine cooler and an adjacent utility room with laundry facilities. The breakfast area is large enough to have a table to seat eight people.

The family and sitting rooms on the ground floor provide for flexible accommodation, the family room has doors to the terrace. The office overlooks the front drive and is ideally positioned for business visitors.

The first floor landing is large enough to accommodate a seating area and leads to the superb family bathroom with a top-of-the-range oval stand-alone bath, a vast walk in shower and underfloor heating. There are four double bedrooms with stunning views including one with Neville Johnson fitted bedroom furniture and an en-suite shower room. Bedroom 2 also has en-suite facilities and Hammond bedroom furniture, bedroom 3 is also a double that has Hammond fitted cupboards and the fourth includes bespoke wardrobes.

Outside there is a terrace with views across the garden to fields of deer and horses. The terrace provides plenty of space for outdoor entertaining with storage facilities underneath and an imposing central staircase that leads down to the professionally designed rear garden that is laid to lawn surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. At the end of the garden is another terrace incorporating a wonderful glass pod with mood lighting, as well as a wonderful modern water feature.

What the Owner says:

We moved here in 2015 as we loved the location, the views and the ‘feel' of the house and think it is one of the prime positions along Wellington Hill. We thought this would be our ‘forever' home and redesigned the house and garden to the highest level with that in mind. However, we have now decided to move nearer to our family and hope new owners will be able enjoy everything we have done to create this special house.

As we are on the edge of Epping Forest there are excellent places to go for walks and cycle rides while Loughton is a delightful town with plenty of pubs, restaurants and independent shops as well as sports and entertainment including the Loughton Leisure Centre with a large indoor swimming pool. There are a wide selection of schools in the area including Hereward Primary and Debden Park High School, both rated Outstanding by Ofsted. The town is on the London Underground's Central Line so is ideal for commuters wanting to travel to the City or the West End as it is only about half an hour on the tube to Liverpool Street and there is easy access to the M11 for the M25 as well as Stansted and Cambridge.
