About
Occupying a generous plot in the heart of Little Canfield, Prospect House is a charming detached village home that perfectly balances character features with practical family living.
Surrounded by open countryside and enjoying beautifully maintained gardens, this four-bedroom home offers a rare opportunity to enjoy a semi-rural lifestyle while remaining within easy reach of Great Dunmow, Bishop’s Stortford, Stansted Airport and the M11.
The home is approached via a substantial gravel driveway providing ample parking, leading to a detached double garage and attractive frontage that immediately reflects the property's character and individuality.
Inside, a welcoming entrance hall gives access to a spacious dining room and a generous dual-aspect sitting room, where exposed timber beams and a feature wood-burning stove create a warm and inviting focal point.
The adjoining conservatory enjoys panoramic views across the garden and provides an exceptional additional reception space, ideal for relaxing or entertaining throughout the year.
The kitchen is well appointed and complemented by a separate utility room, while a ground-floor cloakroom adds further convenience.
Upstairs, the accommodation comprises four bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite shower room.
The remaining bedrooms are served by a spacious family bathroom, creating flexible accommodation for families, guests or those working from home. Outside, the gardens are a particular highlight.
The extensive lawn is bordered by mature trees, hedging and established planting, creating a wonderful sense of privacy and space.
There are several seating and entertaining areas, making the most of the peaceful surroundings and countryside outlooks.
The detached garage offers excellent storage and potential for a workshop, gym or home office, subject to any necessary consents.
Prospect House enjoys a prominent village setting with open fields nearby and great access to A120, M11 as well as Stansted Airport and Mainline Railway Station.
Combining character, generous outside space and versatile accommodation, this is a home that offers both charm and practicality in equal measure.
