High Street Green, Sible Hedingham, CO9

A beautifully presented detached period cottage believed to date back to the early 1800's having been extensively extended and renovated throughout. The cottage offers spacious and stylish living accommodation, with impressive far-reaching views over farmland and Tuffon Hall Vineyard.

To the front of the property is an attractive red brick wall capped with cast iron railings, and a path leading to the front. The entrance hall is especially appealing and has exposed wooden flooring and a well-positioned storage cupboard to the left. The dining room is particularly impressive and has a log burner on a red brick hearth which is the focal point of the room, a bay fronted window and a stable door leading to the Kitchen. The kitchen has been renovated and re-designed to maximise space with matching wall and base level units, integrated 'Bosch' dishwasher, a fridge freezer, a range master cooker , and quartz worksurfaces with upstands. A wooden door leads to a utility area with space for appliances, along with wall and base level units. The Internal home office/fourth bedroom is positioned to the front aspect with a bay window and wooden flooring, and is ideal for people working from home.

Adjacent to the kitchen on the easterly elevation of the house, there is a warm and inviting snug which has a log burner on a brick hearth, attractive oak panelling and a bay window to the front aspect creating a lovely light space. Steps lead down to the large sitting room at the rear of the property which provides a more formal family space and benefits from views to the gardens. There are also a useful range of storage cupboards. The games room is a wonderful addition to the property and is situated on the eastern side of the property, and has a large bay window and ample space for a pool table and darts board. There is a practical boot room and cloakroom with access to the rear garden.

The first floor is especially appealing and impressive with generously proportioned bedrooms, all three of which have beautiful modern en-suites. Of particular note is the principal bedroom which has incredible views of Tuffon Hall vineyard and farmland to the rear aspect. The En-suite comprises a jacuzzi bath, heated chrome towel rail, pedestal wash basin and walk in shower enclosure. The second bedroom can be accessed via a separate staircase which rises from the dining room. The third bedroom has a range of fitted furniture which includes a wardrobe and range of drawers, and has wonderful field views to the front.

Duck Down cottage has a large plot and is approached via a gravel drive which provides extensive parking for multiple vehicles and with access to the garage with an electric door. A red brick wall and wooden fence segregates the rear garden and ensures privacy.

The large rear garden is a wonderful family space with many interesting attributes. A timber-built canopy connects the house with the
under cover barbecue and bar area, making it perfect for family entertaining. The paved terrace area adjacent to the property runs to the filtered pond, a beautiful construction with various water features which provides a tranquil focal point. Walking through an arch you come to the Astro turfed putting green, well maintained and separated from the rest of the garden by fencing. To the rear of the garage is a useful home office which has running water, a cloakroom and electric connected. The majority of the garden comprises large expanses of lawn and has post and rail fences to the boundary allowing the occupants to take advantage of the stunning views beyond.
