Great Warley Street, Brentwood, CM13

Located within the charming village of Great Warley, Wellmead is tucked away beautifully at the centre of its c13 acre secluded and picturesque gardens, grounds and woodland. Wellmead is believed to date back to pre 1900, once known as "The Well Mead Garden" forming part of the Warley Place Estate, home to accomplished botanist, gardener and horticulturalist Miss Ellen Willmott who created her famous rose garden within the grounds, as well as planting a wide variety of different species of trees, shrubs and plants from the continent. The property itself once consisted of two separate cottages with cellars for loading and unloading produce. In 1959 the cottages were connected and the property extended to become one dwelling. Set back 50 metres from Great Warley Street are a set of electronically operated gates on brick piers. Once through the gates, a driveway sweeps a further 180 metres across the grounds and around to the parking area in front of the house.
