THE PROPERTY
Fox House was built as a Public House in 1831 but, following conversion, it now makes for a spacious and stylish family home.

Features of note on the ground floor include a triple-aspect (26-foot) sitting room with French doors to the garden, a second reception room/playroom with views to the front and side, a glass-roofed dining area and a kitchen with an induction hob, two ovens and a fitted microwave.

There are four bedrooms on the first floor, with one currently in use as a study. The master suite has a good-sized shower room and a vaulted ceiling.

Improvements made to the property by our clients include a top-to-bottom redecoration, a new kitchen, new floors throughout the house, the installation of electric blinds onto the Velux windows, and the addition of an electric log burner and surround in the sitting room. Window shutters have also been fitted in the bay windows, the radiators have been renewed, and bespoke fitted storage has been added, including panelled wardrobes in the second bedroom.

GROUNDS
The property has a fully fenced and secured rear garden which measures around 20 feet square, as well as a detached storage shed and private off-street parking for two cars. There is pedestrian side access to the property from Chapel Road.

LOCATION
Fox House is located on the western edge of the popular village of Langham, just to the north of the City of Colchester. The village is friendly and active and includes a community run Shop and Post Office, a Primary School and the Sheperd and Dog pub/restaurant; all these facilities are within an easy walk of the property, as are many miles of rural walks heading towards the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Colchester City Centre is around six miles from the house whilst Colchester North Mainline Station is five miles away and provides a direct service to London Liverpool Street with a journey time of 50 minutes.
