Summary - The Old Rectory, Rectory Lane CM19 4HA
5 bed 4 bath Detached
Spacious family home with extensive private grounds and flexible living spaces.
Almost one-acre plot with mature private gardens
A classic five-bedroom former rectory set on almost an acre, this detached 1930s house suits families seeking space and privacy. The ground floor offers three reception rooms, a fitted kitchen/breakfast room with island, a home office and utility room for practical family living. Upstairs the master suite includes a walk-through dressing room and en suite; four further bedrooms plus separate shower rooms and family bathroom provide flexible sleeping arrangements.
Outside, mature gardens, a raised rear deck and a detached games room/gym with covered entertaining space and garden kitchen create excellent scope for family gatherings and leisure. The driveway with electric gates leads to a double garage with power and lighting; parking for numerous vehicles is available. The tucked-away position retains a village atmosphere while still being close to Harlow’s transport links and amenities.
Practical considerations: the property has cavity walls with no known added insulation and the broadband provision is slow, so energy and connectivity upgrades may be needed. Council tax is described as quite expensive. Overall this is a substantial, characterful family home with strong entertaining potential that will suit buyers willing to invest modestly in modernisation.
