Spacious family home with large garden and double garage in peaceful lane.
Detached timber‑framed house with exposed beams and inglenook fireplace
Willow Lodge is a well-presented four-bedroom detached home set on approximately 0.25 acre in sought-after Clay Hall Lane, Acton. The house blends timber‑framed character with modern conveniences — exposed internal beams, an inglenook fireplace with log burner, and a contemporary kitchen with Rangemaster and integrated appliances. A detached double garage and long gravel driveway provide extensive parking and outside storage.
Grounds are a major selling point: a large, established rear garden with terrace, pergola, summer house and a secluded “secret” garden offer privacy and outdoor living options. Practical features include a boarded loft with power, utility room, two external taps and lighting, and gas central heating running from a boiler and radiators.
The accommodation suits a family seeking rural calm with good local amenities — Acton village services nearby and Sudbury three miles away with rail links to Marks Tey and onward to London. Note material facts: the property was constructed in the late 1990s/early 2000s with double glazing installed before 2002 and a timber frame (assumed insulated). Council Tax Band F is relatively expensive. Mobile signal is average despite fast broadband availability.
Overall this is a characterful family home with generous outside space and practical parking, offering scope for minor updating over time rather than a major refurbishment.
