Henham Road, Elsenham

This 16th/17th century Grade II listed property is in need of renovation and comprises timber-framed elevations adorned with ornate plaster, with later additions, casement leaded windows and a wealth of characterful features. These include fine wood panelling and latched doors, timber beams, column radiators and elegant fireplaces.

The 24 ft. reception hall with its brick-laid flooring and wide turned and carved staircase opens to a cloakroom and flows naturally throughout the equally charming array of reception rooms. Adjacent is a triple aspect snug and a drawing room, with a unique curved hallway flowing through into the impressive sitting room. This expansive 46 ft. vaulted space with its plethora of exposed A-frames and trusses is ideal for entertaining, with a large stone fireplace and views to the garden. The ground floor accommodation also includes a formal dining room and study, alongside which is a spiral staircase within an additional hallway. From here is the kitchen with its five-oven AGA range cooker and wooden cabinetry and various utility spaces and rooms.

A total of nine adaptable and pleasing bedrooms are arranged over the first and second floors, three of which enjoy the use of en suite bathrooms. The sprawling first floor houses seven of these bedrooms and an additional shower room and WC, whilst the second floor is home to a further three bedrooms.
