(Click picture for more pictures and details)
This is a rare opportunity to acquire this historic building, which occupies a plot approximating to two acres and which has the benefit of a six bay cart lodge currently providing garaging and storage facilities and a separate three bedroom detached bungalow standing within the grounds.
The building is of considerable historic importance which is confirmed by its listing status.
By way of brief history, we understand the house was built in the early 1500’s (before the great fire of London) and existed some three hundred years before Clacton-on-Sea even existed.
The house was previously owned by King Henry VIII and later by Lord Thomas Cromwell.
The location of the house is convenient for road access to the A133, which connects with A120 and onto the A12, which has links to the M25 and A14.
The house is approximately one and a quarter miles from Clacton-on-Sea town centre and a similar distance from the recently opened Brook Retail Park on the outskirts of Clacton-on-Sea. Clacton-on-Sea is provided with a main line railway station connecting to London, Liverpool Street via Colchester, with a journey time of approximately ninety minutes.
Many of the original features of the house have been retained and a full internal inspection is essential to appreciate the high standard of refurbishment that has been achieved together with the retention of the previously mentioned features.
