Positioned in a quiet setting on the outskirts of the sought after village of Dedham and located a few metres away from the Essex Way, Thorne Roughets is a charming, 3-bedroom period cottage with stunning features throughout, which is surprisingly not listed. Of particular note, the vendors have more recently refurbished the property, including re-wiring, re-plumbing with a new boiler and adding period-style double glazing.
The ground floor provides access to the flexible accommodation which concludes the sitting room with wonderful exposed beams and a feature fireplace, as well as the spacious study further in. To the other side is a well-proportioned family room with an impressive inglenook fireplace. Towards the rear of the property is the wonderful, open plan kitchen/dining room with stunning stone floors, and a set of French doors that opens on to the garden. Further on this floor is a family bathroom with a free-standing bath.
To the first floor are three good size double bedrooms, one of which has a lovely vaulted ceiling. Further on this floor is a beautiful family bathroom.
