Mill Road

Offering a beautiful, mature plot measuring 2.25 acres with a detached Annex, gated courtyard parking with double garage is this charming Grade II Listed Farmhouse in an idyllic, tranquil setting, surrounded by unspoilt countryside. The property offers a wealth of original character features and excellent potential to extend or redevelop, stpp. In short, the main farmhouse offers an impressive 26' drawing room with inglenook fireplace, a sitting/dining room with multi-fuel burner, study area and four double bedrooms, whilst the annex offers self-contained accommodation, an additional garage/stable and immediate potential to convert the adjoining storage space to create a sizeable detached bungalow. Internal viewing is essential.

Orgers Farm is located along a very quiet country lane in an elevated south-facing position, with fabulous views to the front over surrounding fields and farmland, and views to the rear and side aspects over the mature plot and beyond.

To the west side of the plot is the private, securely gated courtyard driveway, offering a large parking area -with space for a multitude of vehicles - giving access to the double garage and vehicular access to the gardens, annex and additional garage/stable.

The Detached Annex offers its own walled garden area to the front of the plot, ideal for cohabitants or tenants wanting their own space. Currently the annex offers self contained accommodation which may require a little updating but, in the agent's opinion, offers fantastic potential to utilise the adjoining store room and garage/stable to create a substantially larger annex or detached bungalow. In it's current condition and layout the annex is also ideal for those looking to work or run a business from home who require a separate, self-contained space but with the potential on offer this space also offers excellent income or development potential (subject to any necessary consents).

As mentioned, the plot measures an impressive 2.25 acres (approximately, subject to land survey) and offers an expansive lawned area packed with mature trees and fruit trees, field area and is privately enclosed and unoverlooked to all boundaries. The garden is perfect for wildlife/garden enthusiasts, those wanting to make the most of countryside living, or even families requiring the ultimate outdoor space or possibly equestrian usage.

Internally this thatched farmhouse is deceptively spacious, offering an entrance lobby, a large 26' drawing room with inglenook fireplace, a dining/sitting room with a multi-fuel stove, study area and a traditional kitchen breakfast room with adjoining cloakroom to the ground floor.

To the first floor are four well-appointed bedrooms with potential to create an en suite by utilising the storage in bedrooms one and two, stp, and the family bathroom with separate wc.
Again, in the agent's opinion, this farmhouse offers the potential to largely extend to the side/rear aspect to create the most fabulous and substantial of countryside homes, subject to planning permission, in the middle of an enviable plot.

Located to the outer edge of Great Bardfield village - within catchment for both Dunmow, Braintree and Saffron Walden schooling, and easy access to sought-after grammar schools and local amenities.
