Description Green Farm House is listed as being of Architectural or Historical Interest Grade II, a late 18th century house, constructed of timber frame and rendered elevations under a tiled roof and has been in the ownership of the same family for over 150 years. In need of refurbishment, the house offers well proportioned rooms with period features throughout. Accommodation On the ground floor a front door opens into the hall, off which are doors into the sitting room, with an open fireplace and French doors onto the terrace, and dining room with an alcove with built in shelving and cupboard under. Further doors open into a sitting room and study, and at the rear of the hall is a lobby area and cloakroom with a door leading out into the garden. Accessible from both the dining room and hall is the kitchen/breakfast room with a large gas fired AGA and a range of fitted wall and floor units incorporating a stainless steel sink and with plumbing for a dishwasher. Set off the kitchen is a utility area housing the gas fired boiler with a store room and sink, leading through to a lobby area with plumbing for a washing machine. On the first floor is a master bedroom with an en suite bathroom and dressing room and two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. A further staircase leads up to the second floor to two attic bedrooms and a bathroom. Outside Green Farm House is approached through a white timber gate over a gravel drive leading to a range of outbuildings including garaging. The garden is laid mainly to lawn to the south and west of the house and beyond the garage and outbuildings is a Grade II listed thatched cart lodge believed to date from the 17th century adjacent to a small pond. Services Mains water, electricity, drainage and gas. Gas fired heating. Note We understand that in the dining room the internal wall to the hall was affected by possible subsidence. Investigation showed that this was actually sole-plate failure, which has now been rectified – no underpinning was required. Where the insurers have paid a subsidence claim it is normal to maintain cover on the buildings both for the policy holder and, subject to all other aspects of the risk being satisfactory, for any subsequent purchaser, subject to terms. Further details available on request. Directions From Chelmsford, take the A12 towards Colchester, bypassing Witham and Kelvedon. Take the slip road off the A12 at Marks Tey.
