The property is located in a tranquil & secluded rural location, located to the outer edge of Southminster Village and yet within minutes to Southminster Train Station (offering easy access in to London City).
The total plot size measures 6.5 acres in total (subject to land survey), with the property sitting in a prominent position towards the middle of the plot (with countryside views to the front and rear).
The property is accessed via electric double gates which open to the 400' approx shingle driveway that sweeps round to the front of the property allowing driveway parking for a multitude of vehicles, parking for the Annexe (and access to its Double Garage), and access to the rear of the plot and equestrian facilities. To the front of the property is also a circular pond with water feature.
The front gardens have been split into two large sections and offer either an impressive lawned front garden area, or of course additional paddocks. To the side of the property is a Detached Garage/Workshop with a fish pond to its rear; with bridge over and a decked seating area. Besides this area is access to the Storage Shed/ Workshop (internally measuring 26'4" x 17'5"), and a further Double Garage with power and lighting connected (internally measuring 19'9" x 16'8").
To the immediate rear of the property is the more formal garden area; with block-paved patio, greenhouse, shrub and plant borders, gated access to a further lawned garden (currently used as a private garden for the Annexe) and access to the Hot Tub Cabin - with hot tub jacuzzi to remain.
To the rear of the plot are 2 one acre fields/paddocks; offering access to the 4 Paddocks (each measuring 12' x 12' approx internally). Adjoining the paddocks is the Hay Store (measuring 17'4" x 15') and the Tack Room. There is also a chicken shed nearby
The property is of course ideal for those requiring equestrian usage or for those looking to cohabit with elderley relatives or family members - whether that be residing in the Annexe or converting one side of the property to offer a perfectly sharable main residence.
Viewings are an absolute must to appreciate the true size and versatility of the accommodation, the beauty of the plot and neighbouring area, and the property's location.
