Full Description: This immaculately presented and attractive property, constructed in 1929 by the renowned Courtauld family, boasts a striking brick and timber façade. Located on the sought-after North side of town, the home enjoys breathtaking countryside and roofline views to the rear, with a natural river ensuring these vistas remain unobstructed. Built in the style of its era, the property retains charming period features while offering versatile accommodation, ample off-road parking, and a generously sized lawned rear garden. <br /><br />The entrance is sheltered by an imposing storm porch, leading to a solid oak door that opens into a welcoming hallway. The hall provides access to both the kitchen and the sitting room, with stairs rising to the first floor. The sitting room is particularly impressive, featuring a dual aspect for ample natural light and a wood-burning stove that serves as a cozy focal point. A square archway connects this space to the dining room, which is fitted with stylish Karndean flooring. <br /><br />The dining room is a standout feature, with French doors opening onto the rear terrace and garden, making it an ideal space for family gatherings and entertaining. Adjacent to the dining room, the well-appointed kitchen overlooks the front of the property and is fitted with modern wall and floor-mounted units, complemented by granite countertops, a large central island, and tiled splashbacks. Integrated Bosch appliances include an oven, grill, hob with extractor, and dishwasher. A practical utility room, with additional cabinetry, a stainless-steel sink, wood-effect flooring, and plumbing for a washing machine, adds further convenience. Beyond the utility room is a luxuriously appointed cloak/shower room with tiled flooring, a UPVC window, and a fully tiled shower enclosure. <br /><br />The first floor continues to impress, featuring Berber carpets throughout and four generously sized bedrooms, each benefiting from excellent natural light. The rear-facing bedrooms are south-facing, offering stunning views across the town and open farmland. Original features, including a cast-iron fireplace and built-in cupboards, enhance the charm of these spaces. The split-level bathroom is beautifully designed with a four-piece suite, including a double shower cubicle, an enclosed panelled bath, a vanity wash basin, and a heated chrome towel rail. Tiled flooring and partly tiled walls add a touch of elegance. The loft space offers tremendous potential for conversion, subject to the necessary planning permissions. <br /><br />Situated near the Courtauld Sports Ground, this home is ideally located for families, with access to the popular Halstead River Walk trail and scenic countryside walks. <br /><br />The property is approached via an expansive shingle driveway that provides parking for multiple vehicles, with mature hedging offering privacy. Block paving runs along the eastern perimeter, ensuring easy rear access. <br /><br />The rear garden is a true delight, enjoying a southerly aspect that captures sunlight throughout the day. A full-width terrace provides an ideal space for outdoor entertaining, with steps leading down to a manicured lawn bordered by established blossom trees and conifers. Additional features include a greenhouse and two storage sheds, all framed by picturesque views of fields and an unspoiled roofline, completing this idyllic property package.<br /><br />Halstead is a pretty traditional market town 7 miles north of Braintree.
