About
An exceptional opportunity to acquire a distinguished period residence on Debden Road, seamlessly blending historic character with an absolute commitment to future-proofed, energy independent living.
Situated in the highly desirable market town of Saffron Walden, named the Sunday Times’ “Best Place to Live”, this impeccably updated property operates completely free of gas, powered instead by a state-of-the-art electric boiler, integrated 10 panel solar array 415W per panel, and a high-capacity 13.5kW storage battery.
The internal accommodation is beautifully curated, featuring a high-specification kitchen with a Belfast sink and bespoke prep island, which flows effortlessly into a tranquil, dual-aspect open plan dining and living area accented by a 5kW certified wood burner and premium engineering grade light oak flooring.
The lower ground floor reveals a highly versatile, insulated media room or fourth bedroom complete with a dedicated lightwell, while the upper levels offer a principal suite boasting a dressing area, modern en-suite, and glazed door opening onto a private balcony overlooking the town.
Externally, a secluded walled courtyard garden provides gated pedestrian access and an insulated timber studio ideal for home working, complemented by an electric vehicle charging point and a recently upgraded, fully boarded loft space accessed via a robust wooden ladder, ensuring this property delivers an exemplary, highly sustainable lifestyle footprint perfectly suited for the modern buyer.
