Full Details for 6 Bedroom Detached for sale in Waltham Cross, EN8 :
A unique property of immense charm and character, having been in the same family ownership for nearly forty years. The original part of the building dates to the mid 1800's and consisted of a slate roofed workers cottage. Now forming the family snug on the ground floor with a bedroom above. The tell tale signs of the rather interesting past are seen with the outline of the original staircase still visible, and the oak roof beams now enclosed by the later Victorian roof, which can be seen from the loft access. Both the drawing and dining room have a grand Victorian manse feel, through the high ceilings, picture rails and large casement windows. The central hall is a real testament to the period before the first world war with its; Arts and Crafts Movement design initiatives in the wall panels, inglenook fireplace with original love seats and the tulip balustrades of the semi galleried staircase. In more recent times the property was further extended to create a new utility / boot room with an adjoining door to the kitchen with impressive period bressumer beams. The 'Smallbone' kitchen is extensively fitted, which compliments the character of the house. From the kitchen a breakfast room with a delightful Victorian fixed dresser and high mantle fireplace can be enjoyed. There is a central lobby giving access to a ground floor guest toilet. To the first floor are six generous bedrooms, the master having the benefit of an en-suite with semi-sunken, double Jacuzzi bath. There is a family bathroom and a separate shower room. Externally the property has extensive grounds. The main formal garden is to the front, predominantly laid to lawn with stocked borders and an impressive Copper Beach tree, standing pride and place. There is green housing, out buildings and garaging. Parking is provided via both entrances, for several vehicles. A truly extraordinary property with huge scope. There has been interest from previous parties in the separating of the land for further development of separate dwellings, subject to planning.
