Copped Hall, Epping, Essex, CM16

A once in a lifetime opportunity exists to purchase a pair of superbly converted barns that would be ideal for anyone with multi-generational requirements and a love of the countryside, yet only half an hour on the train from the City of London and not far from the M25 and M11. Steeped in history, these fascinating properties provides a unique opportunity to enjoy the delights associated with living within the curtilage of the Copped Hall Estate that had its origins in the reign of Richard I.

You know you are in for a real treat when you enter through the electric gates at the southern end of Epping High Road and drive along the private drive surrounded by parkland and a wide variety of impressive specimen trees before you reach your destination. The drive serves a select group of 22 individual residences on the Copped Hall Estate and leads to an archway, bordered by a large lawn. This opens into a spacious courtyard providing plenty of parking as well as leading to the garages.

Together the two houses provide a vast amount of flexible accommodation and would then allow you to have a ten bedroom house, with multiple living spaces, that would be ideal for larger multi-generational families that would still like to retain some degree of independence.

Outside there is a delightful terrace surrounded by mature trees, shrubs and hedges. This leads to a bridge over a large and charming goldfish pond and onto truly amazing grounds including sweeping lawns, a pathway under a rose arbour and a backdrop of impressive specimen trees and shrub borders and, if combined both gardens would create a truly spectacular outdoor space.

What the Owner says:

We bought this charming property 27 years ago while we were looking for a more permanent home, but we loved the house and the area so much we then bought the property next door and together they have created a wonderful home for all the family. However, with all our children having flown the nest we sadly feel it is time for us to downsize.

The unique location is wonderful as we can wander into the vast Copped Hall Park and stroll or cycle into Epping Forest without having to go on any main roads. The wildlife here is amazing as the previous owner of Copped Hall didn't approve of shooting, so the grounds became a haven for a variety of animals and birds. Apart from the beauty of the surroundings, it is also a very safe and secure environment with CCTV at the entrance gates and a floodlit courtyard as well as a residents' association and WhatsApp group where everyone keeps an eye out for any strangers, so this would be an ideal home for anyone wishing to remain out of the spotlight and keep their homelife private.

Although we are surrounded by the delights of Copped Hall Park, we are only three minutes' drive from Epping town centre and only five minutes from Epping Station, which is on the Central Line so trains can whisk you to the City of London within about half an hour.
