Amid a half-acre plot edged by trees, this Five (potentially Seven)
Bedroom Detached House has improved its carbon footprint courtesy
of an A-Class Air Source Heat Pump, itself assisted by the
electricity generated by solar panels up on the South facing
Roof.
The property enjoys a lovely semi-rural setting on the Ingatestone
Road within the Green Belt area of Stock, the rear garden also
backing directly onto `Stock Brook` itself.
It is a spacious family home, extended several times over the
years, including more recently with a hugely impressive, two storey
Oak framed glazed Atrium added to the front elevation, increasing
the size of the Main Entrance, and enhancing its kerb appeal, as
well as bathing the Hall and 1st Floor Landing in light.
The present accommodation briefly comprises the aforementioned
double height PorchAtrium, which is open plan to the long Hallway,
itself opening up at the West Wing into a two desk Study area, a
rear Lounge with a large window enjoying the garden view, a
separate Dining Room featuring a recessed full height Glass Display
Cabinet, a further Reception Room
(presently used as a small cinema
room), the gorgeous big `Hub-of-the-Home` open plan
KitchenDinerFamily Room boasting White Quartz topped White Gloss
kitchen units and a large Granite topped Island, a huge adjoining
UtilityLaundry Room and a ground floor WC Room to the ground floor,
with upstairs the five bedrooms, three bathrooms and two Loft Rooms
offering on (two ensuite and the main bathroom).
A bespoke Triple Bay Oak framed GarageCarportWorkshop holds two
large cars with the block paved Front Drive taking another six cars
with ease. The well tendered grounds extend all round, with the
main lawns to the South facing Rear and West facing side.
The Accommodation
The wide, chunky, beautiful Oak Front Door, incorporated within the
20ft tall Oak Atrium, designed to bring extra light into the north
side of the house, swings open to:
OPEN PLAN ATRIUMENTRANCE HALL
Constructed by Messrs `Prime Oak` from seasoned, air-dried Oak
Beams, the dramatic double height glazed Gable end Atrium floods in
light both into the now increased size Hall as well as through the
glass balustrades of the Landing above.
Large stone tiles extend into the East wing, gorgeous wood flooring
runs off to the West wing and stylish contemporary internal doors
add to the premium look.
An abundance of storage is provided by a large walk-in Cupboard at
one end, Cream Gloss fronted fitted cupboards the other end and a
built-in Meter Cupboard as you enter.
STUDY AREA 14ft 2` x 5ft 9` (4.3m x 1.75m)
Two full height windows at each end bring in lots of working light
to this well used Home Office.
GROUND FLOOR WC ROOM
A big downstairs Cloakroom featuring an attractive Walnut effect
wall hung Vanity unit backed by striking split face tiling, along
with a back-to-wall WC and a window giving plenty of light.
LOUNGE 24ft 4` x 13ft 1` (7.4m x 4m)
Upon entering, the eye will be drawn to the massive window which
gazes out over the Garden with its treescape backdrop.
The centrepiece within the room is the `Bodart and Gonay` Multifuel
built-in cassette Stove Fire, offering low CO2 emissions and high
efficiency, warming very large spaces like this big family friendly
Living Room.
The same wood flooring in the Hall is found here as well as the
Dining Room, proving warmth and character and fitted shelving at
the far end will hold many a book or large ornament.
DINING ROOM 13ft 1` x 9ft 10` (4m x 3m)
The focal point of this room is the large, recessed glass display
cabinet with glass double doors and shelving.
CINEMA ROOM 13ft 1` x 10ft 3` (4m x 3.1m)
A versatile extra reception room.
The Vendors projector screen lowers down in front of the New York
Mural, the Projector, and its screen available by separate
Negotiation.
KITCHENBREAKFASTFAMILY ROOM 25ft 3` x 20ft 1` (7.7m x 6.1m)
The style Hub-of-the-Home featuring White Quartz topped White Gloss
Kitchen units from `Crown Wood Kitchens`, Twin NEFF Multi-function
Ovens, Twin Warming Drawers, a sleek black Induction Hob sitting
below a swish Angled Extractor Fan, a neat undercounter sink and a
host of smart storage systems like recycling bins and corner
carousels.
The large Island holds a second sink and is topped this time with
black Granite, the adjoining contrasting timber Breakfast Bar
providing seating for four.
As part of the Kitchen extension, an Oak glazed roof was put on the
projection, which along with the Bi-fold doors, further fully
glazed external door and the glazing within the other windows,
makes for a sun drenched room, especially as it is South
facing.
Further features worthy of note is the beautiful porcelain floor
tiles, recessed display niche in the informal dining area, LED
plinth lighting and the six contemporary brushed steel spherical
pendant lights which hang down over the Island and Dining area.
OPEN PLAN UTILITYLAUNDRYBOOT ROOM 16ft 9` x 10ft 6` (5.1m x
3.2m)
Essentially two big Utility Rooms with a range of units matching
those in the Kitchen and both with windows for natural lights
The first area is fitted out as the Utility Room and incorporates a
double Butler sink and spaces for the usual appliances.
The second area has a run of full height matching fitted cupboards
housing the mains pressure hot water cylinder, Manifold for the
Underfloor Heating in the Kitchen, Ground floor WC, Utility Room
and the new projecting Atrium, and the Oil Fired Boiler (to assist
the Air Source Heath Pump during very cold spells) and a fully
glazed external door opening out to the east grounds.
Note: The 16kW Air Source Heat Pump serves the hot water and
central heating. A 400L insulated Hot Water Cylinder tops the heat
up on the hot water, as Air Source Heat Pumps typically work on
lower temperatures. In addition, the Vendor has retained the Oil
Fired Worcester Boiler as a back up, in case of very cold spells
(minus zero). Essentially this is a hybrid heating system that
combines an air source heat pump with an oil boiler. The oil boiler
used to `top-up` the low temperature heat pump to meet the heating
demands of the property during especially cold spells.
Straight staircase with glass balustrading runs up to:
1st FLOOR LANDING 40ft x 11ft max, narrowing to 7ft (12.2m x 3.35
> 2.2m)
As previously mentioned within the Hall, the focal point is the
full height projecting Oak glazed PorchAtrium, which floods light
across and over the Galleried Landing, the glass balustrades
looking down over the Travertine flooring below. Even more light
comes in through two further windows as well.
One of the internal doors open to reveal the full height airing
cupboard.
MASTER BEDROOM 18ft 2` x 14ft 6` (5.5m x 4.4m)
A spacious principal bedroom with a clever freestanding wall giving
separation to a run of five Light Grey Gloss Double Wardrobes
behind. Of course, this could be removed to open up the bedroom
even more, but we think this works very well as it is, giving
fabulous uncluttered hidden storage.
The new light grey carpet is so soft underfoot and two rear windows
enjoy a pleasant outlook over the Garden with its tall trees
backdrop.
Sliding `Pocket` doors disappear into the wall, leaving a 5ft 3`
wide opening leading through to:
ENSUITE BATHROOM 17ft 9` x 9ft
The ultimate in luxury, the deep and spacious, freestanding `Ashton
& Bentley` Bath provides a stunning focal point.

A light up mirror and chrome shaver socket complete the

BEDROOM FIVE 12ft 2` x 8ft (3.7m x 2.4m)
* You may have noticed we have switched round Bedrooms Four & Five.
This is because Bedroom Five is off Bedroom Three *
Bedroom Five here has varnished floorboards and is well lit by two
windows as it is dual aspect. We thought it would make the perfect
little Lounge or Gaming Room for the occupier of the main bedroom
adjacent.
BEDROOM FOUR 12ft 5` x 9ft 3` (3.8m x 2.8m)
Another dual aspect bedroom, this one with a large 6ft 3` x 2ft 6`

EXTERIOR - FRONT
As you turn into Ingatestone Road, the first house on the left is
Stratton house. The second is this one - Fairmead.
Here you will see a block paved bridge going over the stream
between the house and the road.
A remote controlled metal sliding gate gently rolls aside, with the
block paving running on as the drive for the property, providing
parking for six vehicles with ease.
On the left is the detached 3-Bay Oak Framed CarportGarageWorkshop,
with a pitched tiled roof, comprising
CART LODGE 17ft 7` x 8ft 5` (5.4m x 2.6m) With an internal light
and security light

workshop has a fitted workbench across the far wall with four power
sockets, further sockets, and lighting, shelving and a 4ft 3` wide
door, allowing the sit-on mower to be driven out with ease.
An open hatch in the ceiling, provides access to the loft which
runs across all three bays and has been fully boarded, therefore
providing a superb storage facility.
Just outside the workshop, in this tucked away part of the garden,
is the 16kW Air source heat pump and the 550 gallon oil tank.
MAIN GROUNDS
The property sets fairly central within its formal grounds, albeit
more towards the front, to give a 157ft x 75ft max Rear Garden and
78ft x 55ft East Side AreaGarden, the lawns extending round to the
front and other side.
The extensive lawn is in very good shape and is bordered by a mix
of a timber lengths and railway sleepers, retaining rows of various
different trees giving a high degree of seclusion.
The property backs onto Stock Brook and the fields behind, so
enjoys a semi-rural rear aspect, the tall trees giving a pleasant
backdrop to the garden.
A neatly paved Patio provides plenty of room for the largest table
and chair sets with the bifold doors in the kitchen seamlessly
opening out to attractive composite decking, which steps down to
the lawn. This decking part retained by glass and chrome
balustrading and with inset floor lighting.
