5 Charles Moore Place, Station Road, Felsted, CM6 3YN

Charles Moore Place is a cluster of seven spacious houses on the leafy outskirts of Felsted, Essex.

Although private and distinct from one another, each home forms part of an overarching design ethos inspired by the Arts and Crafts movement - one that prioritises space, light and connections with the outdoors.

Finishes are especially high-spec and sophisticated, with environmental credentials at the forefront of the design.

Each also has a private garden, a large double garage as well as space to park additional cars. Charles Moore Place is a cluster of seven spacious houses on the leafy outskirts of Felsted, Essex.

House 4 - 4 bed/4 bath - £1,650,000 - 3058 sq ft House 5 - 4 bed/4 bath - £1,710,000 - 3167 sq ft The Architect Charles Moore Place was designed by Sergison Bates, an award-winning architectural practice based between London, Zurich and Brussels.

It works across Europe, on a variety of thoughtful projects in addition to teaching at some of the world’s best architecture schools.

Of Charles Moore Place, the practice has written: “Subtle adjustments in the orientation, setting and massing of each house within and beyond the courtyard is unique, but all share a common palette of materials and details.” Environmental Performance Eco credentials were a primary concern when designing Charles Moore Place.

Central heating and hot water are provided by an air-source heat pump, and underfloor heating is installed on the ground and first floors.

The homes are EPC rated 'A' and there is a mvhr system in each home, along with photovoltaic panels strategically placed on the garage flat roofs.

The Tour The approach to the homes is a leafy one, passing a patchwork of mature trees on the quiet access road lying behind a shared gated entrance.

Each house is built using red-facing brick and topped with clay pantile roofs. Houses 2 and 5 have striking zinc standing seams on external canopies.

All windows, exterior frames, doors, courtyard screens and panelling chartreuse-hued Scandinavian softwood- a material that harmonises with the ruddy exterior profile of each home.

Inside, a combination of Ketley Clay quarry tiles, engineered oak floors and soft carpets anchors each space. Walls are left simple to allow furniture and artwork centre stage.

Each home’s kitchen is finished with handsome grooved kitchen units and quartz worktops.

Integrated appliances include an oven, microwave and fridge-freezer; there is also a hob and a dishwasher in every house.

Cleverly conceived boot rooms have been added as a transitional space between outdoors and in. All bathrooms and WCs have been finished with a crisp palette.

Duravin WCs and washbasins are paired with Hans Gröhe showers. Chrome fittings are a timeless flourish. The bedrooms are all serene spaces, most with green, peaceful views.

For more details on each home, please refer to the floor plan.

Outside Space Each house at Charles Moore Place alights in the middle of its own private courtyard edged with newly planted beds and borders.

There is space aplenty for the green-fingered to create and cultivate. Sheltered paved patios open from the internal living spaces, providing lovely spots for morning coffees and outdoor dining.

Each house has an approaching driveway and a large double garage with workshop space.
