Coggeshall, CO6 1TZ

A handsome period home offering character, space and versatility in equal measure. Planning permission has been granted for a substantial single-storey rear and side extension, creating an impressive kitchen/living space with a contemporary glazed side addition. This attractive bay-fronted Victorian home occupies a prominent position in the heart of Coggeshall and offers wellbalanced accommodation arranged over three floors, combining period charm with excellent future potential. You enter into a welcoming hallway which gives access to the principal reception rooms and stairs rising to the first floor. There is also a basement cloakroom suite. To the front, the sitting room is a lovely light-filled space with a westerly aspect, centred around a feature bay window and open fireplace. The dining room sits adjacent to the kitchen and enjoys a large rear-facing window as well as a further open fireplace, creating a warm and characterful second reception space. The kitchen is well positioned with views over the garden and offers excellent scope for further enhancement if desired. The approved extension would dramatically enlarge this area, introducing a striking contemporary addition with extensive glazing designed to fill the room with natural light. On the first floor there are three well-proportioned bedrooms, all served by a family bathroom. A particularly useful feature is the basement level, accessed via a staircase from the kitchen. This provides excellent ancillary space, ideal for storage or hobbies, and has planning permission granted for the provision of a basement lightwell. To the front, the property enjoys an attractive traditional frontage with iron railings manufactured by Bayliss Jones and Bayliss in 1888, and a gate leading to steps up to the front door. The rear garden with cast iron cow tail pump offers a generous and private outdoor space, with double gates providing potential for off-road parking. Planning permission has also been granted for the construction of a detached garage to the rear, should a buyer wish to pursue it. This is a home that offers far more than first meets the eye, combining period features, generous proportions and exciting future potential in one of the village’s most desirable central positions.
