Property description
If this property was a supermodel, it could be compared to greats such as Claudia Schaffer, Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss & Twiggy... Clearly, it's not a supermodel, but there can be no doubt as to its grace, character and raw beauty. This home is not for the unpretentious, it is a shining example of one man's desire for perfection in a home.
Constructed by Eamon Ryan & boasting one of the largest new homes Essex has to offer with nearly 15,000 sq. ft. of accommodation, this property has been built with creativity, care and using only the finest of materials.
Interior designers have been used to create a home of outstanding taste and luxury with 21st century functionality ensuring that wherever you are state of the art Hi Fi and screen media is available at the press of a button.
Film buffs can relax in a ten seat luxury home cinema fully equipped with surround sound and projector. This stunning home is located at the end of a private lane with three gated drives giving access to the 3.6 acres (STLS) of tended grounds which are mainly surrounded by farmland affording a rare degree of privacy.
