Full Description: <p>Over 4,700 square feet on a private, gated 0.6 acre plot in the hamlet of Smiths Green, on the edge of Takeley. Five bedrooms, four of them en-suite, three of them on the ground floor. This is a house built for multi-generational living, and it does it without anyone feeling like they're sharing.</p><p>Double doors open into a vaulted entrance that runs straight through to a 34 foot living and dining hall, with a full height brick fireplace and a galleried mezzanine above. The main living room sits under a vaulted, timbered ceiling with a log burner, and opens onto a timber conservatory with a barbecue built into the chimney. A further reception room links through to the kitchen, a proper family shaker kitchen with granite worktops, twin Franke sinks, Neff appliances and a large central island, leading to a garden room with its own fireplace and a boot room. Off the inner lobby, three ground floor bedrooms each have their own bathroom, with a utility room alongside.</p><p>Upstairs, a 36 foot galleried mezzanine looks down over the hall, currently set up as a fitness space. The principal bedroom has a walk-in wardrobe and a large en-suite with twin sinks. Beyond the mezzanine, a fitted and cabled 29 foot office with a glazed balcony overlooking the living room, and attic storage at both ends of the floor.</p><p>Outside, gardens to both the north and south of the house, a terrace off the living hall, a pond and a brick log store, all screened by mature trees and hedging. Electric gates and a 50 metre drive lead to extensive block paved parking, a garage, and a workshop with a 28 foot studio above that would convert easily into a self-contained annexe. The outbuildings add a further 1,100 square feet.</p><p>Takeley has a village store, pubs, a pharmacy and well regarded infant and junior schools, with the M11 five minutes away, Stansted's mainline station close by, and Bishop's Stortford around ten minutes.</p><p><em>Vaulted.
