Set within the historic Elsenham Hall, this two-bedroom duplex offers characterful living in generous communal grounds. The apartment benefits from a large living room, a recently renovated bathroom and designated off-street parking, all approached via electric gates and a long private driveway. The share of freehold and an exceptionally long lease provide ownership security.
This home will suit a first-time buyer or couple looking for a peaceful, rural base with good rail links; the mainline station to London and Cambridge is about a mile away and Stansted Airport roughly 3.4 miles. The mansion setting, mature tree belts and sweeping lawn give a strong sense of privacy and countryside life while local shops and a primary school are within easy reach.
Be clear about the practical points: heating is by electric room heaters (no central gas system), broadband speeds are slow and the area records above-average crime levels. There is a service charge (circa £1,146 pa) to maintain the communal grounds and gated entrance. The apartment is newly renovated internally but offers further potential to personalise finishes.
Overall, this duplex combines period appeal and a secure long lease with commuter convenience. It represents a comfortable, well-presented first home or countryside retreat for buyers who prioritise setting and character over high-speed connectivity and mains gas heating.
