This attractive early 19th century brick-built detached family home has a wealth of potential and charm, with well-laid out accommodation arranged over two floors. Residing in a peaceful countryside setting, yet well served for transport links, this striking property benefits from a generous wrap around garden and several useful outbuildings.

The reception hall has a comfortable and well-sized reception room to either side and centrally stairs rise to the first floor. Leading off from the family room is the attractive conservatory, with its in-keeping brick-built foundations and slate laid roof. This bright space offers the ideal space to entertain guests, with double doors onto the circular brick-laid terrace and sunny views across the garden.

Adjacent to the sitting room, with its characterful feature fireplace and log burner, is a formal dining room with large flagstone tiled floors, providing a tranquil space for mealtimes. The adjoining open plan kitchen/breakfast room serves as the central hub of the home, with warm terracotta tiled floors throughout and two skylights in the kitchen, adding to the airy feel. There is a range of wall and base units, integrated appliances and a butler sink in the kitchen, as well as a practical pantry, separate utility room, cloakroom and a door to the garden. The sociable breakfast room also benefits from access to the rear terrace and additional stairs to the first floor. This leads to the attached storage room and workshop, which could provide an excellent solution for the home worker.

To the first floor are four very well-proportioned bedrooms, with pleasing garden views through various original large sash windows. The principal bedroom has an array of built-in wardrobe space and also features an en suite bathroom. Three of the four bedrooms have original feature fireplaces, whilst all are well served by the further family shower room.

This property has 1.5 acres of land.

Outside

Pump Farm House enjoys a considerable countryside plot encircled by a plethora of tall, colourful mature trees and shrubbery, creating both interest and privacy. Around the home are numerous circular bricked and square paved terraces and walkways, offering plenty of spaces to relax. A large area of fenced land sits beyond the main gardens, previously a vineyard. Separating these two spaces is a long privet hedge with a carved-out keyhole doorway. The main garden offers plenty of lush level lawn to enjoy, whilst a number of practical outbuildings punctuate the plot. Parking is available via a driveway and two carports. A black weatherboard-clad art studio is on the plot.

Situation

The property is situated in the picturesque village location of Little Warley, with its leafy common and scenic countryside surroundings, public house, golf club and parish church. The village has excellent transport links, with Brentwood high street just 2 and a half miles away. The mainline station at Brentwood is even closer at just under 2 miles away and provides fast and frequent services to London (Liverpool Street) in just 40 minutes. Road links are also convenient, with the M25 (Junction 29) just over a mile away, giving access to central London and further afield. London City and London Stansted airports are easily reached, both of which offer a range of regularly scheduled international flights.

Directions

From the M25 motorway, exit at Junction 29 and head north, continuing onto Codham Hall Lane. Take a right turn onto Great Warley Street (B186) and a turn left onto Bird Lane. Continue for just over half a mile onto Warley Gap, where the property will be on the left-hand side.
