Little Sampford, Nr Saffron Walden, Essex

BUSH FARM offers an impressive Grade II Listed farmhouse set within mature and well presented gardens, peacefully located in an unrivalled rural setting in the village of
Little Sampford. With over 4,000 sqft of
accommodation along with a well maintained detached barn, double garage and self-contained office, this property is extremely versatile. With exposed timbers and brickwork throughout, accommodation comprises an L-shaped entrance hall with an attractive curved porch area leading to a formal study and stairs to the first floor. To the far end of the hall is a large formal dining room with twin aspect
overlooking the grounds. The large kitchen/breakfast room sits to the rear of the house opening onto the raised rear terrace with ornamental pond and extensive views over open countryside to the rear. The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units with tiled worktops and includes a dishwasher, double oven and microwave with freestanding American style fridge freezer. An archway opens to the dining area with wide windows (fitted with electric blinds) and leads to the spacious utility/boot room with a cupboard housing a washing machine and tumble dryer, an airing cupboard housing the oil fired boiler and a further wall of fitted cupboards with good storage and space for an additional fridge freezer. Adjacent is a sauna and a wet room. To the left hand side of the formal hallway there is a snug/family room with twin aspect and open brick fireplace with inset log store areas and display shelving. A cupboard to the left of the fireplace conceals a former staircase (currently not in use). A further internal hallway has French doors leading to the rear terrace and an adjacent cloakroom with stairs leading to the first floor bedrooms. An extremely large 35ft split-level sitting room has a triple aspect and a fireplace housing a large wood burning stove with carved oak bressummer above.
The staircase from this end of the house leads to an attractive galleried landing with exposed timbers and to a guest suite ( bedroom 3) with ensuite shower room and adjacent dressing room ( bedroom four). There are two further double bedrooms both with brick fireplaces and a spacious family bathroom with corner Jacuzzi bath with twin sinks inset to a vanity unit and a large airing cupboard. The staircase to the kitchen end of the house leads to three further bedrooms, two with vaulted ceilings, and a further bathroom with shower over a bath. Outside the property is approached via two gated access points to a gravelled driveway providing plenty of parking and turning areas with a detached double garage ( 29’ x 26’5 > 16’10) and an attached home office (16’7 x 12’5 ) with twin aspect and exposed timbers. The detached timber barn measures 57’ x 25’ and offers excellent storage. The barn could possibly be converted subject to planning permission. The grounds are fully enclosed with a split level terrace and pond to the rear of the house surrounded by lawns with well stocked boarders and mature trees and shrubs. Post and rail fencing also enhances the depth of views over the surrounding
countryside.
