Writtle Lodge, a charming detached cottage bungalow dating back to 1779, presents a unique opportunity to own a piece of history. Originally one of the four gatehouses to Hylands House, this property boasts a fascinating heritage and character that is rarely found on the market. Nestled in a semi-rural setting on a mature plot of 0.3 acres, the property offers a tranquil atmosphere while still being within easy reach of Writtle Village and Chelmsford City Centre. The interior retains many original features, including exposed brickwork, fireplaces, and cottage-style detailing, and offers a practical flow between the main living areas. The property has three bedrooms, a kitchen with separate utility room, and a family bathroom, providing ample space for modern living. The beautifully established gardens, complete with mature shrubs and trees, offer privacy and a natural backdrop for outdoor living. The property also features a detached double garage and outbuilding, providing excellent potential for storage, hobbies, or future conversion. With its rich history, character, and potential for modernisation, Writtle Lodge is an ideal home for those seeking peace and quiet, character, and a connection to the past.
