High Elms, Stickling Green, Nr Saffron Walden, CB11 4QX

High elms is an impressive detached country residence located in this most attractive rural setting, placed just a short distance from Clavering and with views over the surrounding green.

The property provides nicely balanced and well proportioned living accommodation complemented by a stylish internal décor helping to create a distinctive and individual family home.

The front door opens into a wide entrance hallway where a central staircase rises to the first floor with high vaulted ceiling above creating an immediate sense of space.

There are two reception rooms which sit alongside each other looking out to the front and side of the property with an aspect over open green areas; the sitting room has double doors opening into the reception hall, with the adjoining family room providing space which could serve a variety of purposes as required.

A key feature of this beautiful home is its large kitchen/sitting/dining room combining all family requirements in one large open-plan space.

Double doors open from the entrance hall with bi-folding and double doors opening to the rear, all of which draw in good amounts of natural light.

There is a traditional style brick fireplace with wooden mantel and raised hearth, contrasting with a contemporary style kitchen which incorporates granite work surfaces and large central island, an extensive range of fitted cupboards - all complemented by integrated appliances including fridge and freezer, oven, dishwasher and 5-burner gas hob.

An adjacent utility room provides further storage cupboards, worktops and appliance space, with a door leading to a well appointed ground floor shower room which is also accessible from the central entrance hall.

Upstairs, the first floor landing extends either side of the staircase leading to 4 good sized bedrooms (all with underfloor heating) and family bathroom which contains a 4-piece suite.

The master bedroom has lovely views over the village green, along with its own well appointed en suite bathroom, this being in addition to bedroom 2 which looks out to the rear and features a walk-in wardrobe and, again, its own en suite shower room.

Outside, the property is set back from the road behind a block paved driveway which provides off-street parking space, along with an adjacent hardstanding area.

The rear garden extends to about 85ft in depth, laid out predominantly to lawn with a large timber deck adjoining the rear of the property providing ideal space for outside entertaining.

There is a large summerhouse placed at the rear end of the garden, with a further decked area with pergola over providing an ideal space for a hot tub.

Stickling Green is a small rural hamlet close to the village of Clavering - a north west Essex village with local facilities including primary school, a church, two public houses/restaurants and a local store.

The village is situated almost equidistant between the market towns of Bishop’s Stortford and Saffron Walden which provide an excellent range of shopping facilities and is within easy reach of main line railway stations at Newport, Audley End and Bishop’s Stortford, each providing a commuter service to London’s Liverpool Street.

The M11(J8) is at Bishop’s Stortford for London and M25.
