About the Property
New to the market and offered with no onward chain comes this charming cottage, so full of history that it is featured in Frank Dineen’s ‘The Ingrave Secret’. It is believed to date back over 200 years old, to 1820, originally built to house the builders of Thorndon Hall. The cottage is located near the cricket green in the desirable village of Ingrave/Herongate, which offers local amenities including pubs. Brentwood is just 2.5 miles away, providing a great selection of shops, restaurants, and schools, including the well-regarded Brentwood School. For commuters, both Brentwood and Shenfield have mainline stations with trains into London Liverpool Street, and West Horndon station is less than 3 miles away. Golfers will enjoy having Thorndon Park Golf Club less than a mile from the property, while Thorndon Park itself offers 240 acres of beautiful countryside to explore. This property provides a mix of historical charm and convenient access to nearby facilities.

Property Details
The property is accessed via two entrances; vehicular access up to the integral garage where a side gate leads to the front door. The second entrance is by foot, where a path leads to a front gate into the wrap around garden. Internally, the cottage boasts all the character one would expect from a build of this age, including a double sided fireplace in the lounge/diner. The ground floor also accommodates a ground floor bathroom (complimenting a second bathroom on the first floor), and a kitchen/breakfast room that forms an extension to the original build. The integral garage benefits from an electric roller door. To the first floor are three superbly sized bedrooms and the landing provides a superb space that is ideal for a desk or reading area.
Externally, there is parking for two vehicles in front of the garage and a mature, picturesque garden that wraps around three sides of the property, ensuring that sun will always be in the garden at some point throughout the day.
