Description

A delightful and characterful three-bedroom Grade II listed property on Swan Street in Sible Hedingham. Known as the ‘Post House,’ this home combines historic charm with modern comfort, offering spacious accommodation that includes an inglenook fireplace, a separate snug room, three double bedrooms, and a private rear garden.

From the front, the property features two charming bow windows and a central doorway leading into the main sitting room. The current owners, however, typically use the side door, which opens into a hallway with a convenient downstairs cloakroom. The main sitting room is bright and inviting, with ample natural light and a striking inglenook fireplace with a bressummer beam and inset wood burner as its focal point. Exposed beams and studwork add to the charm, while an open passage leads seamlessly into the dining room, creating a flowing living space. From the sitting room, stairs ascend to the first floor, and a door provides access to the kitchen.

The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with country-style wall and base units, granite countertops, and a butler sink positioned beneath a 16-pane window overlooking the garden. A Rangemaster Noir cooker with gas hobs and an extractor hood, along with an integrated dishwasher and space for a washing machine (which is included in the sale), complete this well-equipped space. Adjacent to the kitchen is the snug, a versatile room that would work well as an office or playroom, featuring two windows overlooking the garden, including a sliding sash.

On the first floor, a generous landing with exposed beams provides access to the bedrooms and the family bathroom. The main bedroom is situated at the rear of the property and is a spacious double room with built-in wardrobes and an en-suite shower room with a three-piece suite. The second bedroom, located at the front, is also a double room, featuring exposed beams and a 20-pane sash window overlooking Swan Street. The third bedroom, another double, carries similar period charm with exposed beams and a 20-pane sash window. The family bathroom includes a panel-enclosed bath with a tiled surround, a low-level WC, and a hand wash basin, enhanced by half-height wood paneling.

The east-facing rear garden is designed for low maintenance, with a combination of stone and brick patios ideal for outdoor seating and dining. A brick wall borders the southern edge of the garden, while a wooden fence encloses the northern side. At the far end of the garden is a timber-framed outbuilding, offering both covered and enclosed storage.

The property benefits from mains gas, water, electricity, and drainage. It falls under Braintree Council Tax Band C.
