Connaught Avenue, Loughton £1,200,000

Nestled in the heart of Loughton, this enchanting conversion of a 19th Century Stable is a truly hidden gem. The Old Stables seamlessly blends the rich history of Loughton with a contemporary touch.
Originally transformed into an exquisite link-detached residence in 1988, this property now boasts four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and an abundance of character.

The property's charm begins with a 65ft driveway leading to commanding gates that open into an immaculate courtyard, offering versatile possibilities. Whether utilised as a garden and social space or additional off-street parking behind the gates, the options are plentiful. Moreover, a large covered area houses a sauna and hot tub, along with additional space currently serving as a gym.

It is worth noting, a previously approved planning application from 2017 (Planning reference no EPF/1682/17) for the conversion and modification of the existing covered store/gym into a single-story annex accommodation, comprising a bedroom, en-suite, and kitchen living room.

Detailed plans are available for viewing at our office.
