About this listing

The Accommodation Set in a wonderfully private and secluded position on the edge of Great Chesterford, Field Farmhouse comprises a former farmhouse together with an extensive range of traditional farm buildings, all occupying an elevated rural setting surrounded by open farmland and uninterrupted views. The site benefits from previously approved planning consent for a substantial contemporary replacement dwelling extending to approximately 4,860 sq ft, designed to take full advantage of the spectacular landscape and peaceful setting. The approved scheme proposed a striking modern country home with expansive glazing and beautifully proportioned accommodation arranged to provide exceptional family living and entertaining space. The design carefully balanced contemporary architecture with its rural surroundings, creating a home of considerable quality and presence. In addition, an extensive landscaping scheme had been approved, incorporating sweeping grounds and a proposed lake, further enhancing the setting and overall vision for the site. Beyond the principal dwelling, the property includes a substantial collection of former agricultural buildings which now offer considerable scope for restoration, repurposing or redevelopment, subject to the necessary consents. The combination of existing structures, land and positioning creates an increasingly rare opportunity to establish a private family estate of scale within easy reach of Cambridge and London. The grounds extend to approximately 20 acres in total and include paddocks, mature natural boundaries and expansive open areas, all enjoying complete privacy and a beautiful rural backdrop. The approach to the property is particularly impressive, with a long driveway leading into the heart of the site and reinforcing the sense of seclusion throughout. The Setting Despite its idyllic countryside setting, the property remains exceptionally well connected. Great Chesterford lies approximately two miles away and provides a range of local amenities including a village shop, public house, schooling and community facilities, whilst the nearby mainline railway station offers direct services into London Liverpool Street and Cambridge. The market town of Saffron Walden is approximately six miles distant and provides an excellent selection of independent shops, restaurants and recreational amenities, together with highly regarded schooling. The M11 is also conveniently accessible, providing links to Stansted Airport and the wider motorway network. SERVICES - Purchasers should satisfy themselves to adequacy and availability.
