Writtle Lodge, a detached cottage bungalow dating back to circa 1779, offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of history. Originally one of four gatehouses to Hylands House, this charming property has been beautifully maintained and now presents a unique chance to update and modernize while retaining its original character. Nestled in a semi-rural setting on a mature plot of 0.3 acres, the property enjoys a peaceful atmosphere and is within easy reach of Writtle Village and Chelmsford City Centre. The interior features exposed brickwork, fireplaces, and cottage-style detailing, with three bedrooms, a kitchen, utility room, and family bathroom. The grounds are a highlight, with mature shrubs and trees providing privacy and a natural backdrop for outdoor living. The property also includes a detached double garage and outbuilding, offering potential for storage, hobbies, or future conversion. With its rich history, character, and potential for renovation, Writtle Lodge is an ideal home for those seeking a unique and peaceful lifestyle with easy access to village and city amenities.
