Summary - Topeka, The Village, Willingale CM5 0SJ
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Large five-bedroom detached home with pool and expansive private plot.
Five bedrooms and four bathrooms across 4,000+ sq ft
Set in Willingale village, this substantial five-bedroom detached house offers more than 4,000 sq ft of lived-in space and sits on an established circa 0.7-acre plot. The ground floor's high-spec open-plan kitchen/dining/reception, marble island and polished herringbone oak floors give the home a contemporary, luxury feel while multiple reception rooms and terrace access increase family flexibility.
Outdoor living is a clear asset: private, mature gardens, an impressive swimming pool and a long gravel driveway with gated access and garage provide excellent space for children, entertaining and secure parking. The property is chain free, double-glazed, and benefits from fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for home working in a semi-rural setting.
Practical points to note: heating is by oil-fired boiler, which can mean higher running costs compared with mains gas. The house was constructed in the 1980s and, while presented in good decorative order, buyers should check mechanical and roofing items and factor maintenance for the pool and substantial grounds. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Local services are village-scale; the nearest secondary schools and other amenities are in Ongar and surrounding villages.
This home suits a growing family seeking generous internal space and private outside amenities, or a buyer wanting a characterful modern property with scope for minor updating and garden enjoyment. Viewings are recommended to appreciate the scale of accommodation, ancillary outbuildings and plot depth for potential further landscaping or annex conversion, subject to planning.
