Set on a generous plot in Layer‑de‑la‑Haye, this five‑bedroom detached home blends modern specification with comfortable family living. The ground floor centres on an impressive open‑plan kitchen/family/breakfast room, complemented by separate reception rooms and a practical utility. Natural light and French doors connect indoor spaces to a landscaped garden and paved patio for outdoor entertaining.
Built between 2007–2011, the house benefits from double glazing, mains gas heating via boiler and radiators, and a double garage with electric roller doors. The principal bedroom includes fitted wardrobes and an en‑suite; four further double bedrooms and a large family bathroom provide flexible accommodation for families or multi‑generational use. Broadband speeds are fast and the area records very low crime rates.
Practical considerations: the property sits in a very affluent, ageing suburban community and council tax is described as quite expensive. Mobile signal is average. While the house is presented to a high standard throughout, buyers seeking a more lively urban centre should note the village’s quieter character. Its location, however, is commuter‑friendly — Marks Tey station and the A12 are within easy reach.
