Rysley, Little Baddow

Nestled in the picturesque village of Little Baddow, "The Old Stables" is a truly unique 3-bedroom bungalow that blends rural charm with contemporary luxury.

Ideal for socialising, it provides an inviting space for gatherings, while the underfloor heating ensures warmth throughout the year. The modern utility room adds extra convenience, and the integrated Sonos sound system allows for seamless music enjoyment in every corner of the house.

The master bedroom is a private sanctuary, complete with its own ensuite and a dressing room, providing a touch of luxury. The other two bedrooms offer generous space and versatility for family or guests.

Outside, this property continues to impress. An outdoor kitchen, fitted with a BBQ connected to mains gas, sets the stage for al fresco dining and summer entertaining. To finish off the garden entertaining, there is a dedicated hot tub area offers the perfect place to unwind and take in the peaceful surroundings.

One of the most striking features of The Old Stables is its setting. Overlooking acres of land with resident horses grazing nearby, the property offers serene countryside views, making it a tranquil retreat from the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

FROM THE CURRENT OWNERS The Old Stables has undergone a remarkable transformation since we acquired it in 2017. Originally a derelict stable and tack room, we fell in love with its location and breath-taking views, inspiring us to reimagine the property while preserving its historic charm.

We meticulously redesigned the structure, retaining the original roof trusses and as much of the original timber as possible, seamlessly incorporating them into the new build. After laying entirely new foundations and installing a modern drainage system, we constructed the house using the finest materials available. The property features a Welsh slate roof, fully insulated walls and roof, and hardwood double-glazed windows.

As a new build, The Old Stables is equipped with state-of-the-art systems, including electrics, plumbing, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning, all certified by Chelmsford Building Control.

Our vision for the outdoor space expanded when we acquired additional land, doubling the size of the plot. This allowed us to create a beautiful outdoor entertaining area. The outdoor kitchen, crafted from reclaimed materials, includes mains gas, electric, a fridge, and a BBQ seating area. It's a perfect social space for summer evenings, with views overlooking the countryside and abundant wildlife.

In 2022, we were granted planning permission to construct a beautiful oak-timbered frame barn, now complete with a two-bay garage and a separate workshop. The barn features its own WiFi, alarm system, and security cameras. Adjacent to the barn, a charming seating area with a hot tub provides yet another spot to enjoy the serene outdoor environment.
 

AGENT NOTES The property is of timber frame construction.

There is an overage on the land where the double garage is built. This overage is for a period of 30 years from October 2020. The overage payment would be triggered if a residential property was built on that parcel of land. The overage payment would be a payment of 30% of the difference between the enhanced value and the purchase value of £45,000. The land is only to be used together with the rest of the property, as a single private residence. For more information, contact Martin & Co
