Full Description: A deceptively spacious family home in a delightful, quiet tucked away location backing onto wonderful countrysideWhat we think at the Zoe Napier GroupAppearances can be deceiving! This veritable Tardis really is a hidden gem, tucked away at the bottom of a cul de sac of just five properties and boasting some wonderful views, it offers a super home for a family to live in comfortably, whilst raising children in a fantastic, semi-rural environment with an abundance of surrounding open countryside to explore in.What The Owners sayOur father resided at the property for many years and loved nothing more than sitting in the conservatory with a glass of wine, admiring the views and observing the vast range of wildlife that regularly comes to visit! Unfortunately, his health has now deteriorated and as a result has decided to move in with family, which for ease will allow us to offer the property for sale with no onward chain.History & BackgroundEva’s Garden is a well-presented family residence that is believed to have originally been constructed in the late 1990’s. The versatile, deceptively spacious accommodation could be utilised in a variety of different ways to suit the incoming buyer and includes two/three generous reception rooms that are complemented by the hugely impressive kitchen/ breakfast room. The principal bedroom enjoys its own en suite bathroom, whilst the three remaining bedrooms are all serviced by the family bathroom.On the first floor there is a further bedroom with en suite shower room and a large loft storage area, that could quite easily be converted into further accommodation if required (stp).Externally the property boasts a substantial driveway offering off-street parking for numerous vehicles, detached double garage and secluded South facing grounds of 0.22 acres (stls) that back directly onto open countryside.Setting & LocationThe property is situated in Mount Lodge Chase within the highly regarded village of Great Totham, a respectable, highly sought after Essex Village, south of the City of Colchester set between the village of Tiptree and the historic waterside town of Maldon.
