Summary - East Hanningfield Road, Rettendon Common, Chelmsford, Essex, CM3 CM3 8EN
4 bed 3 bath Equestrian Facility
Rare Edwardian home with 13.5 acres, extensive outbuildings and development potential (STPP)..
Approximately 13.5 acres of pasture and grounds
A rare Edwardian estate offered on approximately 13.5 acres, this property combines period character with extensive outbuildings and genuine equestrian potential. The main house (circa 2,191 sq ft) retains original features and comfortable living spaces including a lounge with a log burner and a traditional Rayburn heating/cooker setup. The house sits set back from the road and enjoys wide countryside views and seclusion.
The site includes around 4,025 sq ft of powered outbuildings: barn, stable facilities, large garage and workshop, plus a pub-style party area. Mains sewage is connected, and there is scope to extend the property or pursue alternative uses subject to planning (STPP). For buyers with land-based hobbies, equestrian needs or development vision, the combination of land, buildings and location is a strong draw.
Practical considerations are clear and should be factored into any offer. Broadband speeds are slow and the wider area is recorded as relatively deprived; this may affect day-to-day connectivity and some local services. Any development or change of use will require planning permission and associated surveys. The large parcel and historic house will bring ongoing maintenance responsibilities.
This property is best suited to buyers seeking space, privacy and flexible land use — families, smallholdings or investors with appetite for renovation or development. It’s a rare opportunity to acquire an established Edwardian home with significant ancillary buildings and land in a village-edge countryside setting.
