Set on approximately 1.75 acres in the Stour Valley, Robbs Hill House combines traditional country proportions with a striking modern extension to create generous family accommodation. The ground floor flows around a large entrance hall into three reception rooms, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room with utility, and a self-contained annex with kitchenette, bedroom and wet room — ideal for multigenerational living or guests.
Upstairs the principal suite includes a dressing room and en-suite, with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom within the original house. Large glazed doors and a glass corner in the extension maximise light and countryside views, creating bright living spaces that open onto terraces and a private courtyard.
Practical features include an attached insulated double garage, private tree-lined driveway and fast broadband and mobile signal suitable for home working. Heating is by an oil-fired boiler and the double glazing install date is unknown; buyers should expect ongoing maintenance typical of a house of this age and size. Council tax is expensive and the property dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so some systems may benefit from updating.
This home will suit families who want space, countryside privacy and flexible annex accommodation, or buyers seeking a substantial village home with potential to personalise. The property is well placed for local schooling and a short walk to Bures station for links towards Marks Tey and wider rail connections.
