Description

Surrounded by beautiful Essex countryside, welcome to Little Whitgate Cottage. A beautiful Jacobean cottage steeped in 400 years of history and full of character features to love. Some homes leave lasting impressions and this is certainly one of them!

Packed full of historic detail from inglenook fireplaces to rich oak beams, this home is filled warmth and charm. Complete with four bedrooms, detached double garage with storage, plus tons of versatile spaces for whatever takes your fancy - it’s completely stand-out. From the start, serious kerb appeal is on offer, with a gravelled driveway and gabled front porch. Once inside a double-height entrance hallway with inglenook fireplace provides a lovely welcome, before leading to the rooms beyond. At its heart the stunning living room with its striking beams, toasty fire and glass doors onto the garden is something special. A terrific space to entertain and enjoy evening drinks with friends. Within the kitchen there’s timeless shaker cabinetry, integrated double oven and hob, plus plenty of space for a dining table and chairs - which could equally be placed within the adjoining conservatory. What’s more, there’s also a separate utility room, home office and downstairs WC. Completing the ground floor, the back of the home includes a collection of rooms - currently used as a gym, garage, store and bathroom. With so much versatility on offer, these spaces offer the potential for an annexe, at-home work space, luxury gym and sauna - endless scope in fact. Upstairs there are four bedrooms - three doubles and a good sized fourth single. In addition, you’ve also a gorgeous family bathroom with both bath and shower to suit any mood.

Outside the extensive grounds measuring in the region of 1 acre are full of the wow factor! With its sweeping driveway with plenty of parking space for visiting guests and lush green surrounds providing space and privacy, it’s a dream for families and waggy tailed friends. Completely breath-taking, this slice of peace also includes two unique mini homes - one a roundhouse, the other a Jacobean miniature, built by the current owners family - the perfect retreat for the kids to play and make forever memories.

Nestled a short drive to the village of Chipping Ongar, Little Whitgate offers Essex rural living at its very best. Ongar high street itself is full of charm with individual boutiques and some fabulous eateries. Some of our favourites include The Kings Head, The Cock and of course not forgetting Smiths of Ongar, just a short drive or leisurely walk away. Nestled between Chelmsford and Epping, here you have the best of both worlds - village style living with superb rural charm and countryside views, plus easy access to local towns that pack a punch. Homes like this don't come around often.
