Set within an expansive plot in the peaceful hamlet of Ulting, this six-bedroom detached house combines substantial living space with historic character. Originally built in the 15th century and sensitively updated, the home now provides nearly 5,948 sq ft of accommodation across multiple reception rooms, a bespoke kitchen/breakfast room, and generous principal suites with balconies and en‑suites — ideal for family life and entertaining.
The grounds are a major asset: south-facing landscaped gardens, a swimming pool with pool house, detached Essex barn with cinema and gym, outbuildings and extensive parking. The barn’s oak framing and the property’s period features create versatile options for guest accommodation, home working or leisure use while preserving character elements alongside modern comforts such as fibre broadband and an air source heat pump.
Practical considerations are clearly set out. The estate sits privately behind a gated driveway with low flood risk and good commuter links to Hatfield Peverel, Witham and Chelmsford. The property is Freehold and EPC-exempt; mains services include three boilers and 3‑phase power to the barn. Nearby schools rated Good and independent options make this suitable for families seeking countryside space with access to amenities.
Buyers should note ongoing maintenance needs typical of historic homes: the thatched/tudor elements and extensive grounds require regular upkeep, and council tax is Band G which is relatively expensive. Overall, the house offers a rare combination of period charm, flexible ancillary buildings and leisure facilities for those looking for a large country estate close to transport links.
