An exceptional, individually designed newly built home, nestled along a scenic lane in this charming and sought-after village near Saffron Walden, on the fast main line rail line to London, Cambridge and Stansted airport. The property offers spacious, well-conceived accommodation, with potential for a ground floor bedroom suite, alongside stylish open-plan living spaces and Inglenook-style fireplaces. It sits on a third of an acre plot and an additional half of an acre could be added (by separate negotiation).

SPECIFICATION Bulse House has been conceived and crafted to meet these aims:

1) An aspirational open living space with large kitchen and ample storage, for modern living and entertainment.
2) En suites to all bedrooms to give private space for family and guests.
3) Front outdoor space for ample parking and outbuildings.
4) Low maintenance garden as well as space to allow personal creativity for flowerbeds and vegetable patches.
5) 'Vernacular' external appearance, incorporating modern and traditional features.

Bulse House meets all those aims. It was built for the current owner in 2024 and is a showcase for quality workmanship by a highly regarded firm. The owner is now relocating.

Outside and Garden The plot is of an inverted L-shape of about a third of an acre. The driveway and the house with its garden sit in the long part of the L. The short part of the L is taken by grassland with ample space for flowerbeds, outbuildings and vegetable patches.

Accessed via a large gravelled driveway from Rookery Lane, which provides extensive parking with an EV charging point. Porcelain tiled paths lead to the front and rear doors, and also around the house. Terraces to the front and rear capture the light at different times of the day, ideal for relaxation and entertainment. The rear of the property offers stunning views over open grassland and trees.

A beech hedge at the front and one side of the property provides natural privacy from the lane and neighbours. The rear garden extends eastwards by 35 metres from the house and offers space for games, entertainment, a vegetable patch and outbuildings.

The garden is currently grass and bulbs, is therefore of low maintenance, yet because of its size, allows personal creativity for flowerbeds and vegetable patches. It has external ground spot lighting.

There is additional land of half an acre extending northwards by 44m along the entire width of the garden, available to purchase by a separate discussion.

Planning Permission There is planning permission of a detached double garage with footings already laid. This forms part of the original planning for the new dwelling and is, therefore, held in perpetuity. Full details can be found on the Uttlesford Planning website under reference UTT/22/0477/FUL.
