Great Totham, CM9 8DE

A fabulous, detached 18th Century family residence with spacious annexe and grounds of 0.19 acres (stls) What We Think at The Zoe Napier Group This beautiful period gem is bursting with an abundance of charm and character, seamlessly combining timeless features with versatile and spacious accommodation perfectly suited to modern family living, ideal home for a growing family seeking both comfort and flexibility.

The adjoining annexe offers exceptionally spacious comfortable accommodation in its own right.

Perfectly suited to multi-generational living, it offers an excellent solution for elderly relatives seeking independence, teenagers wanting their own space, or even guests wishing to enjoy privacy away from the main residence.

What the owners say When we acquired Brick Hall 22 years ago it was in drastic need of updating, and the refurbishment process has been a labour of love but it has been a fantastic family home for us and we have lots of lovely memories entertaining family and friends in our secluded garden whilst bathing in the sun all day.

Having the spacious annexe has allowed us to live in close proximity to family and allows them total independence.

We have thoroughly enjoyed our time at Brick Hall but have decided to downsize and pass the baton to the next family.
