Description

** Contemporary Barn Conversions in a Scenic Semi-Rural Setting **

An exceptional opportunity to own one of two beautifully refurbished barns, combining contemporary elegance with rustic charm. Thoughtfully designed, these homes feature bright, open spaces and high-end finishes, all set within a peaceful countryside location.

A striking glass entrance leads into a vaulted living area, seamlessly connecting to the open-plan kitchen and family room. Designed for both style and functionality, the kitchen boasts double ovens, a hot water tap, and a spacious dining and lounge area. Engineered oak flooring runs throughout, complemented by underfloor heating. A handcrafted staircase with bespoke railings leads to the mezzanine level, a versatile space flooded with natural light from overhead skylights, complete with built-in storage. A discreet utility and plant room are positioned behind the kitchen for added convenience.

A well-lit central hallway extends to the rear entrance and links the sleeping quarters. A sleek family bathroom serves the third and fourth bedrooms - one enhanced by a skylight, the other enjoying garden views. The generously sized master and second bedrooms each feature stylish en-suite shower rooms and open onto private patios via French doors.

Externally, a central driveway splits into two, curving around a distinctive brick wall for added privacy. Each barn benefits from a designated gravel parking area, while twin pathways meander through manicured front lawns to the entrances. A south-facing patio extends from the kitchen of one barn, with the remainder of the garden laid to lawn. Approved planning permission allows for the addition of a two-bay cart lodge (Colchester City Council Ref: 221606).

Positioned just south of Aldham, these stunning homes offer countryside views while maintaining excellent connectivity. Marks Tey mainline station, just a mile away, provides direct trains to London Liverpool Street in 55 minutes. Quick access to the A12, A120, Colchester, Chelmsford, and the M25 ensures effortless commuting, while the nearby town of Stanway - just three miles away - offers a wide selection of shops, restaurants, and amenities.

A seamless blend of rural tranquillity and modern luxury - early viewing recommended!

Flood Risk

Environment Agency open data, checked around the advertised map pin for the listed acreage. Long-term risk counts flood defences; the planning map's flood zones do not. The map pin for this listing marks the postcode area rather than the exact location, so these readings describe the surrounding area. Provided by LandSale, not the listing agent, and not part of the agent's particulars. Risk varies across a holding, so verify before committing.
