<|start_header_id|>assistant<|end_header_id|> Here is a summary of the property description in a single paragraph: Walnut Tree Cottage, a Grade II listed gem, is a rare opportunity to own a piece of history. This charming timber-framed cottage, dating back to around 1500, boasts a newly installed thatched roof and eyebrow dormer, evoking centuries of rural English life. The interior features original timber beams, a 16th-century inserted floor, and a later inglenook fireplace. With a unique glazed infill on the gable, the cottage offers both character and continuity. The property has a rich history, having been in the same ownership for 25 years, and has a lapsed planning permission for a detached single-storey oak-framed annex. Situated in the peaceful village of Great Henny, Essex, the cottage enjoys magnificent grounds approaching one acre, including an established woodland, and is close to nearby towns with amenities, schools, and transport links.
