Property description

This imposing character residence proudly occupies an extensive plot of 1.558 acres on Piercing Hill. The secure, deep frontage contains a variety of mature trees, shrubs and lawn. The large driveway, which features a fountain at its centre is accessed by electric gates and has ample parking in addition to the detached double garage.

The owners tell us that friends, family and other visitors have all commented on the welcoming atmosphere of the house, the spacious reception hall with its limestone tiled floor, the traditional wood burner in the fireplace and the large sitting room, which leads out to the conservatory.

In addition to the many features and character of the house itself, the garden is also a talking point. The family explain, “It was a key feature for us when we purchased the property and, over the years, has witnessed many family events including birthday parties, summer barbecues, formal dinners and just relaxing with friends. The raised part of the garden at the rear has also played host to wedding receptions, tennis, croquet and football.”

Theydon Bois is renowned for its charm and possessing a real village community. The large village green, which encompasses a duck pond, hosts various social events during the year and there are local shops and restaurants that cater for daily needs and dining out. There is a Montessouri nursery and primary school within the village and the Central Line station provides easy access to central London.

What the Owner says:

“We have lived here for over 17 years and have enjoyed it immensely. It has been a wonderful home with the character you would expect from a property of this era. When we first viewed the house we were immediately impressed by the location, with Theydon Bois Golf Course literally across the road and extensive gardens leading to Epping Forest at the rear”.

“Whilst the sitting room and dining room are probably our favourite areas, the kitchen/breakfast area is the heart of the home. This links effortlessly with the conservatory which is a wonderful place to retreat to and relax and provides comfortable refuge when the weather is less friendly”.

“The house and Theydon Bois have been everything we thought they would be and more. We have enjoyed a semi-rural location, being set back from the road in extensive gardens, yet we are within 0.8 miles of the Central Lone, making the landmarks, theatres, restaurants and concerts in London just a 40 minute journey away”.
