Details

A truly delightful, three-bedroom, detached residence located in this lovely non-estate position in the sought after village of Langham. This property was originally built in approximately 1968 by Salmon Builders (a local firm), with attractive buff brick elevations under a pantile roof, and has served as a home for over fifty years. The house stands on a good-size plot (front garden 56' and the rear garden 93') overlooking fields to the rear. Some modernisation has already taken place, with oil to radiator heating, double glazing, updated kitchen, modern bathroom/shower, Stovac multi fuel burner, plastic fascias/soffits, and an electric roll up garage door. Further modernisation and decoration will be required by the new owners to make this the perfect family home.

Set out over two floors, the accommodation comprises an entrance porch, dining hall, living room 19'9" and kitchen/breakfast room. The Piranha pine open tread stair case leads up to the landing where there are three good bedrooms (bedroom1 - 19'8" with views over the fields) a bath/shower room and a separate/WC. Outside, the front garden approximately 56' sets the property back from the road whilst the rear garden approximately 93' x 47' is of more than ample size. An integral garage is also provided with an electric roll up door and to the rear a handy separate cloakroom.

The popular village of Langham has a population of about 1,000, and a vast majority of people work out of the village. The electrification of the railway between Colchester and London in the 1960s and the construction of the A12 dual carriageway, ten years later, made Langham into a "commuter village". There are two schools in Langham. Langham Primary School has roughly 90-100 pupils. Langham Oaks School was formerly known as Ramsden Hall School. The village has an eight acre recreation ground, administered by the Parish Council, which accommodates a children's play area, two tennis courts, and a football pitch. There is also on the grounds a modern Community Centre, with a badminton court, club room, bar and committee room, together with changing rooms, showers and toilet facilities. This is used by clubs and societies throughout the county as well as by Langham people.
