Full Description
We are proud to offer this Six Bedroom Semi-Detached House – all interest and OFFERS are INVITED.
*Guide Price £1,500,000 - £1,400,000*
A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial and beautifully presented six-bedroom period home, enjoying a uniquely secluded setting in the very heart of Saffron Walden — just moments from the town centre, yet offering privacy, space and tranquillity seldom found in such a central location. Positioned on one of the town’s most prestigious and tightly held roads — where homes rarely come to market — this exceptional property has been lovingly maintained and significantly enhanced, offering over four floors of versatile living space ideally suited to modern family life, multi-generational living, or those seeking flexible accommodation.
Ground Floor
A welcoming entrance hall with high ceilings and original detailing sets an immediate sense of character and scale. The property opens into an impressive open-plan kitchen, dining and living space — the true heart of the home — featuring a vaulted ceiling, rooflights and full-width glazing that floods the space with natural light and opens directly onto the garden terrace.
The Pronorm-designed kitchen is beautifully appointed with high-spec integrated appliances and a central island, seamlessly connecting to generous dining and family areas — ideal for both everyday living and entertaining.
A separate lounge provides a cosy retreat, perfect as a TV room or quieter sitting area.
Additional features include a utility/boot room, ground floor WC, and direct access to the indoor Hydropool exercise pool, which doubles as a jacuzzi and is notably economical to run using low overnight electricity rates.
Lower Ground Floor
Fully converted and highly versatile, this level offers a superb independent space with exposed brickwork and natural light via a bay window. Currently configured as a guest or nanny suite with en-suite shower room, it would also work beautifully as a media room, studio or playroom.
First Floor
A generous landing leads to three well-proportioned double bedrooms, all with built-in storage. Two benefit from en-suite bathrooms, with an additional large family bathroom serving the floor.
Top Floor
A particularly valuable feature of the home, the top floor provides flexible accommodation that can function as a self-contained living area, comprising a sitting room/bedroom, shower room and additional room suitable as a bedroom or nursery.
This arrangement has previously supported independent living for a family member over many years, making it ideal for multi-generational use or guest accommodation.
Outside
The property enjoys a private and secluded garden, a rare find for such a central location. A large terrace provides an ideal space for outdoor dining and entertaining, with the garden mainly laid to lawn and complemented by established flower beds.
A substantial insulated and heated workshop offers excellent additional space for hobbies, a home gym, or creative use.
The front of the property provides a generous driveway with parking for three vehicles and EV charging capability.
Location
Situated just moments from the centre of Saffron Walden, this home combines the convenience of town living with a peaceful and private setting.
The property is ideally located for families, being adjacent to R A Butler Academy (Ofsted “Outstanding”) and within easy reach of Saffron Walden County High School, widely regarded as one of the leading state schools in the country.
Excellent transport links are available from Audley End Station, providing fast connections to London (under one hour) and Cambridge (approximately 20–30 minutes).
