Southminster Road, St. Lawrence

Nestled in a wonderfully peaceful rural setting on the outskirts of Southminster, this exceptional three-bedroom character home offers a rare combination of period charm, beautifully crafted interiors and versatile outbuildings, all surrounded by open fields and countryside.

Originally a combine harvester barn, the property has been thoughtfully converted to create a truly individual home, with character features retained throughout while modern improvements have been carefully introduced to provide comfortable contemporary living.

The accommodation is particularly impressive, with two of the bedrooms arranged over split levels, creating distinctive and versatile spaces. The principal bedroom suite is a wonderful retreat, complete with a walk-in wardrobe and stylish en-suite facilities.

At the heart of the home is the bespoke handmade kitchen, individually crafted and designed to complement the character of the property while providing a practical and sociable space for everyday living and entertaining. Further improvements include a new boiler and brand-new triple-glazed windows throughout.

Externally, the property is equally impressive. The grounds provide a superb opportunity for those seeking a rural lifestyle, with two stables, a dedicated tack room and a sand turnout area, making the property particularly well suited to equestrian use.

A substantial garage provides excellent storage and workshop space, while the powered garden shed benefits from both power and air conditioning. There is also a caravan positioned to the rear, which has been fully connected to plumbing, offering further versatility for storage, hobbies or additional use, subject to any necessary permissions.

The property is oil heated and benefits from a compliant treatment plant, with the surrounding open countryside providing a wonderfully private and tranquil backdrop.

Having been cherished by the current owners for the past five years, this is a home that offers far more than its accommodation alone. From its historic origins and bespoke craftsmanship to its idyllic countryside surroundings, it presents a rare opportunity to enjoy a distinctive country lifestyle within the sought-after Southminster area.

A truly individual home, combining character, quality and countryside in one exceptional home. (Ref: MAS260188)
