"Set in a stunning position, with fields to one side and Epping Forest on the other, this fascinating plot consists of three detached buildings that have planning permission granted to split into three separate detached homes EPF 2193 13 .
The main bungalow was built in the 1800s as part of the local Manorial estate. The second is a detached five room outbuilding with a further separate outbuilding that is currently used as storage. The overall plot has considerable development potential.
The entrance is via an impressive automatic gate while a secondary gateway provides additional vehicle access. A gravel driveway leads to the outbuildings and garages.
An L shaped hall in the bungalow leads to all the accommodation including the light and bright lounge. With wide archways between the kitchen and conservatory area it provides an open plan feel. The kitchen features hardwearing flooring, white units housing a double oven, hob, fridge freezer, dishwasher and washing machine while leaving room for a table and chairs.
The attractive lounge leads to the impressive triple aspect Victorian style conservatory area with French doors to the terrace, providing a seating dining area with views over the garden, which is laid to lawn surrounded by mature trees and shrubs. There is also a bathroom and three double bedrooms, including one with mirrored wardrobes and shelving while another has a built in cupboard and an en suite shower room. The bungalow also benefits from underfloor heating powered by an air source heat pump and twelve solar panels while the annex is heated by LPG gas and a combi boiler.
The flexible accommodation in outbuilding 1 is currently configured with five rooms, one with an en suite shower room, and a separate shower room and utility room. Room four has French doors leading to a decked patio, whilst room five has a range of units housing various appliances that the current owners uses as a kitchen. The patio allows for al fresco dining and provides delightful countryside and sunset views. It is surrounded by lawn bordered by a wraparound post and rail fencing to the whole plot.
What the Owner says
I bought the bungalow more than 30 years ago and, as it had not been lived in for some 10 years, it was in a very parlous state so I undertook a complete renovation and modernisation programme. The previous owners had started to build the outbuilding but not finished it, so I completed the project and it is now larger than the bungalow. I also created the additional outbuilding as kennelling for my dogs. As we are opposite Epping Forest there are excellent places for walks and cycle rides and we are not far from the catacombs that were historically Dick Turpin s hideaway . Nearby Loughton and Chingford offer excellent pubs, restaurants and independent shops as well as sports and entertainment including the Loughton Leisure Centre. Close by is the High Beech golf club while Chingford Golf municipal course and West Essex golf course are an easy walk through the forest. Loughton and Epping golf courses are also nearby.
Excellent schools include Beechoak Farm Montessori Preschool rated Outstanding by Ofsted, High Beech primary with only 95 pupils and Staples Road Primary, while a range of good state, faith and private schools serve the area. Loughton is on the Central Line and it is only about half an hour to Liverpool Street. Chingford Station is just over three miles by car one mile walk through the forest and is Overground to Liverpool Street or three stops from the Victoria Line at Walthamstow Central.
