About this property

  • This impressive and well-maintained family home occupies a generous plot on Mount Pleasant Road, one of Saffron Walden's most desirable residential locations. Extending to approximately 3,138 sq ft (291.5 sq m), the property offers a flexible layout ideal for modern family living, with original features throughout and far-reaching views over the town and surrounding countryside.

    The accommodation is arranged over four levels. On the ground floor, a spacious entrance hall leads to two elegant reception rooms—both with attractive cast iron fireplaces and large windows allowing for excellent natural light. To the rear of the home is a beautifully appointed open-plan kitchen/dining room. The kitchen features a range of fitted base and wall units, an induction hob, two built-in ovens, a microwave and dishwasher, and French doors opening directly to the rear garden. The dining area includes built-in seating and storage, bespoke shelving, and French doors leading outside. A cloakroom/WC is also located on this floor.

    The lower ground level provides a useful and adaptable area, currently arranged as a utility room and two store rooms. This level has direct access to the rear garden via external doors, making it a practical space for everyday family needs.

    On the first floor, there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with bay window, fitted wardrobes, and en suite shower room. Two additional rooms are currently used as studies but could serve as extra bedrooms. A family bathroom on this floor includes a freestanding roll-top bath, WC, and wash basin.

    Stairs rise to the second floor, which offers three further bedrooms, an additional study, and a snug area off the landing. This level is served by a shower room with shower cubicle, WC, and wash hand basin.

    Externally, the house is set back from the road behind a mature, enclosed front garden. A brick-paved driveway provides gated off-street parking for multiple vehicles. The rear garden is a particular highlight—enclosed and well-stocked with a wide range of mature trees, shrubs, and flower beds. There are multiple seating areas including a paved terrace ideal for outdoor dining. To the rear of the garden, a charming detached thatched garden room/games room offers excellent flexibility for use as a home office, gym, or entertaining space. There is also a large greenhouse and useful storage areas.

Large Saffron Walden houses are rarely available and when I visited this one it was clear to see why the owners chose this as their home for so long
