With its appealing façade showcasing
symmetry, sash-windows and a centrally placed
entrance door topped with a decorative fanlight,
Ratcliffes offers a wealth of period charm and
character features. The generous reception
hall gives access into a study with panelling to
the walls and a feature fireplace which offers
an ideal home-working setting. Just beyond,
the sitting room enjoys the warming ambience
of a wood-burning stove within a brick-built
fireplace, and an adjoining dining area provides
the perfect spot for formal dining and hosting
guests. The spacious kitchen/breakfast room
is housed within a single-storey rear extension
and is fitted with modern wall and base level
units and offers ample space for informal dining.
Ancillary space is provided by an adjacent
utility room which offers a home for domestic
appliance and a door to access the garden.
Black painted wrought-iron railings front the
lane with a gate opening onto a paved pathway
to the entrance door and a side gate providing
a route alongside the property to the rear
garden. A paved terraced adjoins the house
with direct access from the sitting room offering
opportunities for outdoor dining and relaxation.
There is a planted bed and an area laid to lawn,
with a lavender-edged pathway extending to a
further terrace, backed by a high-level evergreen
hedge with clipped archway providing a route to
a garden area beyond, where there is a double
garage which incorporates a secure wine store,
and off-road parking. Mature shrubs, specimen
trees and a majestic ancient tree create interest
in this outdoor haven.<br /><br />Situated amidst a street-scene of similarly
attractive period homes, the property
enjoys an idyllic setting on the green at the
heart of Writtle village. Amenities include a
supermarket, a delicatessen, a post office and
a number of popular restaurants and public
houses, along with local schooling and the
renowned agricultural Writtle College. The
city of Chelmsford is nearby and provides a
comprehensive range of facilities, including a
bustling shopping centre, three well-regarded
prep schools and two outstanding grammar
schools. The mainline train station offers
commuters regular services into London
Liverpool Street, Ipswich and Colchester, whilst
road users have easy access to the A12, which
links to the major road network
