A magnificent, imposing & luxurious 4743 sq ft residence situated along a tranquil, country leafy lane within the highly sought after village of Danbury What We Say at the Zoe Napier Group We fell in love with this property from the moment that we walked through the front door! The attention to detail is quite breathtaking, with an incredibly high specification throughout that is cleverly combined with impressive accommodation that has been meticulously designed to provide exceptional, spacious, luxury accommodation for family living. For discerning commuters, having a railway station such a short drive away offers a seamless commute into London’s Liverpool Street. What the owners say This property has really been a labour of love for us and we spent an awful lot of time creating our dream home and made the decision to indulge in the highest possible specification that we could find, with no expense spared. We have created some wonderful memories here entertaining family and friends, whilst basking in the sun all day but now that our children have all flown the nest, we have made the heavy decision to downsize to a smaller property and allow another family to enjoy our stunning home.
