Architectural connoisseurs will love this early 19th century house that was remodelled by Sir Edwin Lutyens. It is ideally located just 1.25 miles from Brentwood railway station – around 30 minutes by train from Liverpool Street. Of particular note is the Jacobean staircase that Lutyens is believed to have brought from a house in Chester at the time of the alteration. There are four principal bedrooms and two secondary bedrooms on the ground floor. There is also a library, a separate study, television room and cellar for extra storage. There is also a self-contained cottage, a swimming pool, tennis court and two double garages within the nine acres of grounds.
