The Church of St. Nicholas is situated in the neighbouring village of Chignal Smealey. Chelmsford has an excellent choice of amenities including a bustling shopping centre, three superb private preparatory schools, two outstanding grammar schools, a well known independent school (New Hall), a station on the main line into London Liverpool Street and access onto the A12. Brick Barns Farmhouse is a Grade II listed timber-framed and plastered house of early C17 origin and a quote from the listing states “...2 storeys and attics. 3 window range on the front. There is a small gable in the centre, The windows are mainly C20 casements, the ground storey has C18 double-hung sash windows with glazing bars and a C19 canted bay. Roof tiled, with an original central chimney stack with grouped diagonal shafts”. The house has been the subject of an extensive programme of improvements, including renovation and extension, since the current owners bought it in 2009. This has enabled them to create a very comfortable and spacious family home with extensive, versatile accommodation. The house is light and airy throughout and well laid out with three principal reception rooms, a kitchen/breakfast/family room, a study and a utility room. The floor-to-ceiling windows on both the ground and first floors are a notable feature and provide a beautiful frame for the views over the grounds and beyond. The first floor comprises a beautifully appointed family bathroom and six bedrooms including the master bedroom with its en suite bathroom and dressing room and two other bedrooms also en suite. A second staircase leads up to the second floor where there are two large attic rooms. The house lies behind electric gates in well-tended gardens and grounds and is set well back onto its plot. The approach is via a broad gravel drive passing the front of the house and culminating in a parking area in front of the three-bay cart lodge and adjoining gym (which has planning permission for conversion into ancillary accommodation). Large lawns surround the house and are dotted with some beautiful young specimen trees, while a paddock enclosed by post and rail fencing lies to the south against the backdrop of the open fields beyond. Immediately to the right on approaching the house along the drive is a beautiful brick-built barn (the farm’s namesake) which is listed in its own right and extends to approximately 828 square feet. A quote from the listing states “Barn with gable dovecote to the north of Brickbarns Farm...probably of C18 origin. This is probably the only remaining example in tile County of its kind - a barn and dovecote combined.” Utility Kitchen/ 4.07 x 2.83 Breakfast Room 13'4" x 9'3" Dining Room 2 4.41 x 4.27 14'6" x 14'0" Boiler 5.85 x 4.43 19'2" x 14'6" Gym 9.27 x 5.92 30'5" x 19'5" Reception 8.62 x 4.34 F/P 28'3" x 14'3" Reception 2 Dining Room 1 5.25 x 4.18 6.00 x 4.60 Entrance 17'3" x 13'9" F/P 19'8" x 15'1" Study Hall 3.83 x 3.33 F/P 12'7" x 10'11" General Floorplans information Gross internalGround area Floor POSTCODE CM1 4UA Main House gross internal area = 4,197 sq ft / 390 sq m SERVICES Mains water and Bricks Barn gross internal area = 828 sq ft / 77 sq m Utility Kitchen/ Utility Kitchen/ 4.07 x 2.83 Breakfast Room electricity, private drainage. 4.07 x 2.83 Gym gross internal area = 591 sqBreakfast ft / 55 Room sq m Bedroom 1 Roof 6.64 x 3.93 13'4" x 9'3" Dining Room 2 4.41 x 4.27 13'4" x 9'3" DiningBedroom Room 25 Bedroom4.41 6 x 4.27 14'6" x 14'0" VIEWING Strictly by prior appointment Total gross internal area = 5,616 14'6"sq ft x 14'0"/ 522 sq m 21'9" x 12'11" Boiler 5.85 x 4.43 Boiler 5.854.11 x 4.43 x 2.87 4.12 x 2.88 19'2" x 14'6" 19'2"13'6" x 14'6" x 9'5" 13'6" x 9'5" Gym Gym with the sole agents Savills.
