Property Description
The Weft House dates back to the Victorian era and incorporates many architectural features synonymous with this most attractive period, but with the great advantage of not being Listed (at the time of instruction). The accommodation offers hugely versatile living space with generously proportioned rooms throughout and the option to create a self-contained annexe, if required.
A lovely wide reception hall leads you to a comfortable family room on one side and a large drawing room on the other. This most impressive room has a window to the front and a large glazed bay to the side, overlooking manicured lawns. This in turn links to a stylish dining room with another large bay window looking across the grounds. An inner hall with staircase to the first floor, leads to a study/home office, cloakroom and kitchen/breakfast room with features an array of storage cupboards, wooden worktops, granite topped central island with a feature overhead glass roof lantern which floods the room with natural light. The adjacent large utility room leads to the potential annexe with a sitting room, ground floor bathroom and two first floor bedrooms. The principal landing leads to six bedrooms and a family bathroom; the master bedroom has its own large en suite bathroom, whilst bedroom two features an en suite shower room.
Outside, this stunning house sits within about 11 acres accessed by a long gravel driveway bordered by lawn and trees. The driveway leads to a parking area and detached double garage. The beautiful formal gardens are laid mainly to lawn with a paved terrace at the back of the house, a huge variety of plants, shrubs, trimmed hedging and trees, to create individual compartments within the garden. In addition, there is an all-weather tennis court, manege, two stable blocks, an open bay hay barn adjacent to post and rail paddocks.
Widdington is situated off the B1383, Saffron Walden to Bishop’s Stortford road. The village has a thriving community spirit with a mixture of mainly older style properties, a church, village hall and an Inn.
