Shenfield, CM15 0SH

A Stunning Grade II Listed Farmhouse with extensive stabling and leisure facilities and 2.42 acres of beautiful grounds (stls). What We Say This is the perfect property for discerning buyers seeking the charm of country living without compromising on connectivity. Set within an idyllic and peaceful rural location, yet just a seven-minute drive from Shenfield Station, the property offers a seamless commute into London in as little as 15 minutes—truly delivering the best of both worlds. With equine facilities, a heated swimming pool, and a tennis court, it additionally offers a comprehensive package for those who enjoy an active and outdoor lifestyle. What The Owners Say Living here has been an absolute joy, and our children have cherished every moment exploring the surrounding countryside. We will deeply miss the daily walks through these beautiful landscapes, yet the convenience of being so close to both Shenfield and Brentwood has made life wonderfully easy. With heavy hearts, we have decided to downsize and will pass the baton to the next family to create their own cherished memories in this wonderful home. History & Background The property is an immediately impressive property (Listed as Grade II) situated in an enviable rural position with mature acreage and an extensive range of outbuildings, yet is so easily accessible for the Elizabeth Line and major surrounding road links for the City and beyond. The property dates back in part to 17th Century with later 19th and 20th Century additions offering a combination of both characterful accommodation and modern day living. The configuration of well-proportioned rooms offer good family living with space both inside and within the grounds to entertain. The facilities within the part walled mature grounds include a Tennis Court with modern ETC surfacing, a former stable complex; now a leisure/pool complex with a 12m heated outdoor pool, surrounded by good storage (former stabling) which further includes fun leisure rooms for pool and table tennis tables, changing rooms with w.c, a covered family BBQ area and extensive terraces. Setting & Location The property is situated in a highly sought after position on the edge of Shenfield, in Hall Lane with open farmland to both the front and rear aspects yet is located just 2.3 miles from Shenfield Mainline Station and Elizabeth Line and a similar distance for A12 access for M25 (J28). The house is set behind a walled boundary with extensive frontage and wide gated access with a private drive provides secure access to the rear of the premises, barns, leisure and equestrian facilities. Nearby schooling offers an excellent choice in both the private and Government run sectors. These include Brentwood School, Brentwood Ursuline, Shenfield High, Brentwood County High and The Anglo European School in Ingatestone.  Shenfield 2.3 miles* Brentwood 3.8 miles* Ingatestone 5.5 miles* Chelmsford 12.7 miles* Brook Street roundabout/M25 4.1 miles* London Borough Havering 10 miles* City Airport 25 miles* Ground Floor Accommodation The main entrance is approached from the west elevation with a welcoming reception area and access to the ground floor cloakroom/wc and Dining room, which interlinks with the Drawing room. These principal receptions are situated in the older part of the house, each enjoying magnificent Inglenook fireplaces and exposed timbers with an outlook across farmland to the south. The reception hall leads immediately into a central breakfast room area which provides the flowing interlinking access for the modern kitchen/breakfast room with a vaulted ceiling, quality integrated appliances and a rear lobby/storage area for access to the well-proportioned bespoke garden room which has underfloor heating and overlooks the mature gardens and then in turn access also leads from the garden room into the sitting room/study. Stairs lead down to the basement laundry room. This room is tanked for intended use and provides space for washing machines and additional white goods (such as a chest freezer) with good storage facilities.  First Floor Accommodation A door with stairs leads to the first floor part galleried landings which are split level creating further character. The first floor has five good size bedrooms. The current configuration has allowed the current owners to utilise the rooms at the east end for a master bedroom with access to a modern en-suite bathroom with separate shower and underfloor heating, with a further door providing access from an inner landing and fifth bedroom fitted out as a dressing room with floor to ceiling storage and a vanity area. There are three further double bedrooms, each with individual features; one having a vaulted ceiling and the majority of rooms enjoy the outlook and rural vista over its own grounds and farmland. There is an additional family bathroom with a corner bath and also with a separate shower.  A door and stairs lead up to the attic room. This could be an additional bedroom or a play/hobbies room, to suit. Grounds The mature gardens encompass the house with a part walled front garden featuring a Well. The gardens are well stocked and continue around to the side where there is a largely screened Tennis Court with high chain link fencing and a modern ETC surface for the more serious player.  The rear garden, amongst lawn areas are numerous specimen trees including an attractive species of Pine, Yew, Copper Beach, together with part walled features, lower and upper terraces with a path that leads to the covered family area for al-fresco dining and BBQ’s through to the Pool/Leisure complex. There is also a boiler house. Essentially the pool complex is centred to former stabling on three sides creating good storage and stables which have been converted for games rooms and entertaining (with table tennis and billiard tables), facilities for the pool room, pool furniture and inflatables plus a changing room with shower and w.c. In all the secluded grounds extend to 2.42 acres (stls). Agents Notes
