About this listing
Guide Price £550,000 to £575,000 - Seagrave House is an impressive and highly versatile five-bedroom detached chalet-style residence, situated in the heart of Sible Hedingham, just off Swan Street and within easy reach of the village’s local shops, amenities and community facilities. Offering an exceptional amount of flexible accommodation across two floors, the property is ideally suited to a large or multi-generational family, with the first floor providing excellent potential for a self-contained area for parents, teenagers or visiting guests.
The property is entered through double obscured-glazed uPVC doors into an entrance lobby, with a further door opening into a spacious hallway extending through much of the ground floor. Finished with a tiled floor and benefitting from the property’s wonderfully high ceilings, the hallway provides access to the majority of the accommodation.
Positioned at the front is a generous double bedroom featuring an impressive uPVC double-glazed bay window, a further angular window to the side and an attractive carved fireplace surround. Alongside is the principal sitting room, which also enjoys a bay window overlooking the front aspect and a feature fireplace incorporating a coal-effect gas fire, creating an inviting focal point.
A further good-sized double bedroom has a window to the side aspect, while an additional versatile reception room could equally be used as another bedroom and features exposed wooden floorboards. Towards the rear is a further reception room, currently arranged as a study, with a side-facing window and wall-mounted radiator.
The family bathroom is generously proportioned and fitted with a panel-enclosed P-shaped bath with shower over, a twin vanity wash basin and a low-level WC. Fully tiled walls and flooring, a heated towel rail and an obscured window complete the room. There is also a separate cloakroom fitted with a low-level WC and vanity wash basin, attractively finished with patterned wallpaper, timber-clad walls and a tiled floor.
The L-shaped kitchen is fitted with a range of matching base units complemented by granite work surfaces. Integrated appliances include a Siemens double oven, Samsung induction hob and extractor hood, while useful storage has been incorporated within the original fireplace. An adjoining utility area provides space for a dishwasher and includes a sink with mixer tap, further granite work surfaces and a window overlooking the conservatory.
Spanning the rear of the house is an expansive uPVC double-glazed conservatory, currently providing both sitting and dining areas. The room has tiled flooring and double doors opening directly onto the rear garden. Further double doors lead into an additional utility and storage area with space and plumbing for a washing machine.
An inner lobby provides access to the staircase rising to the first floor, together with steps descending into a second conservatory. This bright and practical space is currently arranged as a summer kitchen and is fitted with an excellent range of units and granite work surfaces. Appliances include a Neff oven and combination microwave, Neff ceramic hob and built-in refrigerator, with further provision for a dishwasher and a sink with flexible mixer tap. Double doors open onto the rear patio, while an additional door leads to a further patio and the attractive koi pond.
The first floor opens into a substantial sitting room with double-glazed windows to two aspects, useful eaves storage cupboards and a feature electric fireplace. This area, together with the adjoining bedroom and shower room, lends itself particularly well to independent accommodation. The shower room comprises a double shower enclosure, low-level WC and pedestal wash basin, complemented by a heated towel rail, partially tiled walls and an obscured window. The adjoining bedroom is a generous double room with further eaves storage and a dormer window overlooking the front.
Outside, double gates open onto an extensive block-paved driveway providing off-road parking for approximately five or six vehicles. Two garden sheds offer useful storage, with gated access continuing through to the rear garden.
Immediately behind the conservatory is a block-paved terrace leading onto the lawn. The garden wraps around the property, with further paved areas, planted borders and timber fencing creating a variety of places in which to sit and enjoy the surroundings. A particularly attractive feature is the built-in koi carp pond with running water and a fountain, positioned alongside an additional sunny patio. The front garden includes a further lawn planted with a selection of young fruit trees and enclosed by mature hedging.
Tucked into the corner of the garden is a covered seating area providing access to a substantial outbuilding. Previously used as an office, this useful space benefits from power, lighting and air conditioning. A central staircase rises to a generous first-floor storage area within the roof space, making it ideal for home working, hobbies or general storage.
Seagrave House offers an unusual combination of spacious accommodation, flexible living arrangements, extensive parking and valuable outbuildings, all within a convenient central village location.
