Property Description
Location
A12 (junction 18): 0.8 miles, Chelmsford city: 3 miles, M25 (junction 28): 15 miles. All distances approximate.
Sandon is an attractive village to the south-east of Chelmsford city with a village green and St Andrew's Church at its heart.
Close by, the village of Great Baddow provides everyday local amenities whilst the cosmopolitan city centre of Chelmsford lies just over 3 miles away. The village is a short drive to the A12 which interconnects with the A130 and beyond to the M25 at junction 28. There is a good choice of both state and private schools close by including The Sandon School, a mixed academy school for 11-18 year olds, Great Baddow High School & Sports Academy and the property also lies within the catchment of Chelmsford County High School for Girls and King Edward VI Grammar School.
Description
Bridge House is listed Grade ll of architectural or historical interest. Dating from the 17th century, the house has been a landmark for generations. The property was purchased in 1966 and is now available for the first time since then. Internally there are many period features including fireplaces, exposed timbers, a fine staircase and notable metal railings retaining the front gardens. This is a fine home for the next custodian to restore.
The house has a great deal to offer in terms of accommodation, extending to nearly 3,000 sq ft with up to six bedrooms, complemented by three fine reception rooms. A central spacious hall provides a welcoming reception area and features a fine sweeping staircase, curved walls and panelled doors. The hall continues to the rear of the house with access to a cloakroom, useful pantry and a cosy study. The principal reception rooms are either end of the house on the east and west wing. The drawing room enjoys good ceiling height edged with period cornice. A fireplace provides the focal point to the room with French doors and deep windows providing a good deal of natural light. A summer sitting room on the western side enjoys the afternoon sun through two large bay windows. Adjacent to a blocked fireplace are fitted dresser-style units. At the centre of the house, overlooking the front gardens is a beautiful dining room. Good ceiling heights include exposed timbers and a red-brick fireplace provides a focal point to the room. A gothic-style window faces south, overlooking the front garden. At the rear of the house is the kitchen/breakfast room, which enjoys lovely garden vistas. Accessed from the kitchen is a large utility/boot room with a door to the garden.
On the first floor are six bedrooms, a bathroom and a cloakroom. On the east wing, two of the bedrooms and a store cupboard would make for a lovely suite with the potential to create an en suite, dressing room and bedroom.
A staircase from the landing provides access to the open attic, featuring exposed trusses and timbers within a vaulted ceiling. A skylight provides natural light.
Outside
The plot extends to just under half of an acre with gardens surrounding the house. A drive to the left of the house passes through metal gates and opens into a large, gravelled courtyard. To the left is a detached red-brick outbuilding, used as garaging. The building has subsidence and will require restoration or rebuilding, needing listed planning consent. Next to the garage is a small orchard area and an area of land gifted to the owners 40 years ago but never registered. There are further brick outbuildings behind the house and a water well. The main gardens lie to the east, predominantly lawn with a former vegetable garden and including an attractive folly with a thatched roof.
In all about 0.48 acre.

(3) Behind the rear boundary is a small special needs school, Clarity Independent school.

Mains water, electricity, oil-fired central heating and mains drainage.
