Location
A beautifully appointed detached house occupying a private position in the heart of Henham.
Bracklin presents a rare opportunity to acquire a thoughtfully designed family home combining contemporary styling with high-quality specification throughout. Built by the current owners around ten years ago, the property enjoys spacious and light-filled accommodation, including a superb open-plan kitchen, dining and family room, four double bedrooms, a double car port with versatile storage space above, and beautifully maintained south west-facing gardens. Occupying a discreet setting within a private lane serving just six homes, the property offers both privacy and convenience in one of north Essex's most desirable villages.
The reception hall immediately creates a strong first impression, featuring a striking vaulted ceiling, glazed balustrade staircase and a wonderful sense of light and space.
The ground floor has been designed with modern family living in mind. To the front of the house are two versatile reception rooms comprising a comfortable sitting room and a study, providing excellent flexibility for home working, reading or relaxation.
The heart of the home is undoubtedly the impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and family room extending across the rear of the property. A large central island incorporates additional storage and breakfast seating, while a range of integrated appliances are complemented by Corian worktops and contemporary cabinetry. Three sets of sliding doors open directly onto the rear terrace, creating a seamless connection between the house and garden, ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. Supporting the kitchen is a useful walk-in pantry, together with a well-equipped utility room providing additional storage, plant room facilities and external access.
The first floor continues the sense of space, with all bedrooms benefiting from vaulted ceilings. The principal bedroom overlooks the surrounding farmland and features fitted wardrobes together with a generous en suite shower room. A guest bedroom also enjoys fitted wardrobes and en suite facilities.
Two further double bedrooms are served by a well-appointed family bathroom featuring both bath and separate shower. The bedrooms offer comfortable family accommodation and excellent storage throughout.
To the front, the property benefits from private parking and access to the double car port. Above the car port is a substantial storage area which could lend itself to a variety of uses, subject to any necessary consents.
The rear garden enjoys a particularly attractive south west orientation. A broad terrace spans the width of the house, providing an excellent setting for outdoor dining and entertaining. Beyond, the garden is predominantly laid to lawn with well-established planting, enclosed boundaries and a useful garden shed, creating a private and family-friendly outdoor environment.
