Description

A true 'one-of-a-kind' property, Tabrums Farm, located in the Upminster countryside, has an incredible versatile layout with the ability to be configured as one 6 bed family home, or as separate 4 & 2 bed properties, set on a plot of 1.3 acres (STLS) with development potential to the rear (STPP).

The internal accommodation of the main house commences with a spacious reception hall that is easily useable as an additional reception room. From here there is access to the first floor via staircase with storage underneath.

Positioned at the rear of the property is the principal reception rooms that is centred around a large brick fireplace and enjoys bi-folding doors that overlook the substantial rear garden. There is an additional reception room located at the front of the property that is currently utilised as a home office.

The separate kitchen is also located at the rear of the property and comprises of a range of above and below counter storage units, ample worktop space and various integrated appliances. Completing the ground floor layout is a final reception room that is currently used as a ground floor bedroom.

Heading upstairs, the master bedrooms is a particularly well proportioned room with direct access to the main family bathroom. The second bedroom has the added benefit of its own en-suite shower room while the final two bedrooms are both spacious doubles.

Accessed via a separate entrance, the 'next-door' property has a small enclosed entrance porch that leads through to a spacious sitting room, this in turn opens on to a large, open-plan kitchen / dining room.

Stairs lead up to the first floor where you will find two sizeable double bedrooms and the final bathroom.

As previously mentioned, this property could easily be re-configured into a single 6 bedroom detached family home or used quite comfortably in its existing layout.

Externally, the property sits upon a plot of approximately 1.3 acres which is predominantly laid to lawn with a large, gated, brick paved driveway in front of the property providing ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles.

A hidden bonus of this property are the old farm buildings located in the wooded area to the rear of the plot. With significant square footage, this offers a very exciting development and investment potential.
