Property description
Nestled in the heart of Stock village, Beehive Cottage is perfectly situated to enjoy walks to the woods and surrounding countryside, the pub/ restaurants, village shops, hairdresser and coffee shop which make Stock such a wonderful place to live.
Immediately available, Beehive is a immaculately refurbished property, set in a uniquely shaped plot, and just the most gorgeous, light and airy home, which is honestly a joy to step into. The house was completely renovated 8 years ago so has character but with a modern feel, especially in the main kitchen/lving room.
To the front, the property provides two parking areas for multiple vehicles as well as a large garage for one car. Hedged borders set the house back from the lane and the most wonderful old wisteria climbs up the frontage of the right side of the house in early summer.
The house itself has been beautifully and thoughtfully refurbished and offers an unexpected contemporary and open plan feel. From the moment you set foot into the hallway, your eyes are drawn through two sets of double glazed doors to the reception areas, and on through to the courtyard back garden.
Walking into the kitchen and family living space, you are immediately struck by how much natural light floods in from the multiple skylights and windows. A double height vaulted ceiling, running front to back above the dining area and main kitchen, gives the overall feeling of spaciousness and modern living. A stunning red brick fireplace with a gas log burner is the focal point of the room.
This is a beautifully appointed kitchen and dining space with plenty of storage and a large island. There is a serving hatch between the kitchen and the dining area in the lounge. Additionally, a door also leads through to the garage from the kitchen and another door opens to a generous double shower room and wc.
The reception room has triple aspect windows allowing natural light to fill the space, with two sets of patio doors opening to the rear courtyard garden. The focal point of the room is an elegant gas effect fire.
Upstairs, a spacious landing and lots of windows continue the light and airy feel of this lovely property. Four light filled bedrooms come off the landing with lots of carefully planned and beautifully designed built-in storage. Recently refurbished in an elegant hotel style, the fully tiled family bathroom is Jack and Jill style with doors to the landing and the master bedroom. The fourth bedroom is currently fitted out as a dressing room.
Further to the house, there is an additional outdoor wc and at the other end of the house, a storage room with doors each end - one to the front garden and one to the rear.
Stock is a picturesque and charming rural village located in the county of Essex. Nestled amidst rolling green fields and surrounded by idyllic countryside, it exudes a timeless beauty that captivates visitors and residents alike, encouraging country walks and visits to local places of interest. With a population of around 2000, this friendly community embodies the quintessential English village spirit.
The heart of Stock is its historic High Street, lined with traditional timber-framed buildings that have stood for centuries. The architecture reflects the village's rich heritage, offering a glimpse into its past.
The village enjoys many events throughout the year - the Stock Flower Festival, Christmas Fayre, Windmill openings, street parties for national celebrations. The Tour of Britain cycle race recently visited the village as part of its route. The pubs and restaurants often hold special evenings with live music and quiz nights.

Ten minutes from Billericay or Ingatestone Rail Station, or alternatively fifteen minutes from Chelmsford, Stock is perfectly located to enjoy country living with every amenity you need close by. The A12 is five minutes from the village centre.
