Augusta House is a striking Georgian detached townhouse occupying approximately 0.26 acre (sts) in the heart of Castle Hedingham. The house offers grand, well-proportioned living with high ceilings, extensive period detail and four double bedrooms — the principal benefitting from a substantial en-suite and village-square views. Large reception rooms, a vaulted garden room and a bespoke kitchen with central island make the house well suited to family life and entertaining.
Practical assets include gated parking to front and rear, an EV charging point, a sizeable mono-pitched garage, and a substantial barn with power — rare for a village-centre property. A large, well-ventilated cellar, useful storage rooms and a private westerly garden that catches afternoon sun add to the home's usable space and flexibility.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property is historic (List Entry Number 1168532) which may restrict alterations and requires appropriate consent for changes. The energy rating is D and council tax band is high (G), so running costs may be above average. There is also a public right for others to park in front of the house, which affects kerbside privacy and use.
This is a chain-free opportunity for a family seeking a showpiece period home in a very affluent, low-crime village setting. The house’s scale, outbuildings and plot make it suitable for someone wanting a character-rich residence with potential to adapt spaces subject to listed-building considerations.
