Stoneham Street, Coggeshall, Essex, CO6

Nestled away in a secluded position yet only a few yards from the centre of Coggeshall is this extensive four bedroom family home. It is one of only three houses built around the turn of the century.

Petermead is an individually designed detached house set within the heart of Coggeshall.

The welcoming reception hallway generously provides access to all ground floor reception rooms, the kitchen, cloakroom, and the staircase leading to the first floor.

The spacious kitchen breakfast room is equipped with a variety of cupboards, a rangemaster cooker featuring 2 ovens, 5 gas hobs, and a grill. Conveniently connected to the kitchen is the functional utility room, offering access to the double garage and a rear door leading to the rear passageway.

A sociable dining room, easily accommodating a large table, opens through double doors to an enclosed terrace—an ideal setting for al-fresco dining or a barbecue.

In addition, there is a well-proportioned study and a comfortable sitting room adorned with polished Oak flooring, an external chimney housing a gas fire, and double doors leading to the meticulously maintained garden.

The first floor hosts four double bedrooms, with the principal bedroom featuring an en-suite shower room with under-floor heating, a walk-in wardrobe providing fitted storage and hanging space, and an additional dressing room. A family bathroom, complete with a free-standing bath, double shower cubicle, and under-floor heating, adds to the luxury.

Approached by a private drive flanked by mature trees and bushes, the property unveils itself in the company of only three other prestigious residences, the nearest positioned approximately 50 feet away. A block-paved driveway allows parking for at least two vehicles, complemented by garaging for an additional two. The garden, predominantly on the north side, enjoys a Westerly aspect, showcasing meticulous maintenance, numerous features, and a variety of mature plants and shrubs.

Nearby there is all of the amenities this thriving village has to offer as well as a young child's play area within 100m and a footpath which leads you over a shallow brook to Vicarage Fields, a large public area which is a haven for dog walkers and wildlife.
