Birley Grange is a private gated development on Hall Lane, a short walk from Shenfield High Street and station. It is an unusual scheme in that it offers two quite different kinds of home within one gated setting: newly built detached family houses finished to a high contemporary specification, and a small collection of just three conversion apartments within a handsome period building, where original architecture has been retained and paired with modern interiors.

What the homes share is generous proportion and a serious specification. Two en suite bedrooms feature across both house types, alongside a contemporary family bathroom, and every home comes with its own detached garage and private parking within the beautifully maintained grounds. The setting is the real draw: a gated, landscaped development in one of the most sought after residential positions in Shenfield, with the Elizabeth line into central London a walk away.

Detached houses and period conversion apartments priced from £950,000, a short walk from Shenfield Station and High Street.

Birley Grange sits on Hall Lane in Shenfield, on the north eastern side of Brentwood. Shenfield has long been one of the most consistently sought after addresses in this part of Essex, and the reason is a straightforward one: it combines a genuinely leafy, established residential character with one of the best rail connections into London anywhere outside the capital.

Shenfield High Street and the Broadway form the centre of local life, with a good concentration of independent shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday services within a short walk. Brentwood town centre is a few minutes away by car or one stop by train, adding a wider choice of high street names, bars and restaurants, along with Brentwood Theatre and the Brentwood Centre.

For families, the location is difficult to beat. Shenfield St Mary’s Church of England Primary School is on Hall Lane itself and was rated Outstanding across every category at its most recent full Ofsted inspection in March 2023. Shenfield High School serves the secondary age range locally, with Brentwood County High School and the independent Brentwood School, one of the country’s leading independent day and boarding schools, both a short distance away. Catchment arrangements should be checked with Essex County Council, as admissions criteria are reviewed annually.

Green space is close at hand. Shenfield Common sits between Shenfield and Brentwood town centre, and the Brentwood borough contains three country parks, Thorndon, Weald and Hartswood, all offering walking trails and open countryside within a short drive. Local sports clubs, including Shenfield Cricket Club, add to the sense of an established community.

The transport position is the standout feature. Shenfield station is a short walk from the development and is the eastern terminus of the Elizabeth line, giving a single seat journey through Stratford, the City, the West End, Paddington and on to Heathrow. Greater Anglia fast services also run into London Liverpool Street in around 23 to 25 minutes, with services roughly every ten minutes at peak times, alongside connections towards Chelmsford, Colchester, Southend Victoria and Southminster.

Drivers are equally well placed. The A12 is immediately accessible for Chelmsford and Colchester in one direction and the M25 in the other, with Junction 28 of the M25 a short drive away via the A1023. That puts central London, Stansted and the wider motorway network comfortably within reach.
