1740 - This magnificent, Grade II Listed, Georgian Manor House built for Sir John Salter, Lord Mayor Of London, has been the subject of a meticulous renovation project in recent years, skilfully blending its period heritage with 21st Century convenience. The house forms the centerpiece of the exclusive Wardens Hall Estate, set within the gently rolling countryside of West Essex. The house, which extends to almost 5,500 sqft, comes with a converted two-bedroom Coach House and stands in outstanding formal gardens, parkland and a lake, extending to over 5.5 acres with larger additional paddocks available separately.



As you enter this fine property through the marble-tiled hall, you are immediately aware that this is a special home; its tall ceilings, huge fireplaces, deep moulded skirtings and cornice speak of its opulent history. From the panelled living room decorated in 'on trend' dark tones, and the bright lounge with a deep bay window looking across the parkland grounds towards the magnificent lake, these principal reception rooms are sure to impress. The inner hallway gives access to an Art Deco-inspired cloakroom, a study with fitted storage cupboards, and steps descending to the large basement. Across the rear of the house can be found the fully integrated kitchen, fitted with a fusion of Wardens Hall oak and contemporary cool white units, set around a statement island unit and breakfast bar. To one side is the lovely garden rooms with bi-folding doors opening onto a paved terrace and a rear lobby and boiler house. To the other side is the dining room opening onto the formal part walled garden terrace. Doors take you through to the large utility room/entertaining kitchen fitted in a period style with a large granite island and integrated appliances.



The basement offers far more than just a storage area, containing a gym, wine cellars and a cosy alcove bar area, in addition to a range of storage spaces. On the first floor is a well-lit landing with storage cupboards and access to the four bedrooms. The master bedroom has a range of bespoke fitted wardrobes and dual aspect windows affording panoramic views over the gardens and grounds. There is a separate dressing room and luxury en-suite shower room. The second bedroom is exceptionally spacious with an en-suite shower room. Bedroom three has a lovely split-level design and an en-suite shower room, which also links through to the landing and can be used as a shower room for bedroom four.



The adjoining period coach house has been converted to provide a wonderful two-bedroom annexe, which extends to over 1,600 sq ft and offers; lounge with a wood burner fireplace, dining room, fitted kitchen with integrated appliances, two large bedrooms (one with a freestanding bath) and a shower room. Most of the rooms overlook the parkland grounds with views across the lake, and there is an adjoining garage and shower room.



To the outside is a gated carriage driveway and ample parking with surrounding formal gardens and paved terraces to the rear and side. Beyond are parkland grounds, which gently slope down to the lake and access into the adjoining paddocks, which are available by separate negotiation.
