## Description

**QUOTE CC0810 WHEN CALLING TO VIEW**

Owners comments "Washall has been such a beautiful family home for us. It is a house that has  always been bursting with life, visitors and celebrations -  and plenty of room to accommodate everyone. We are fortunate to be set back from an already very quiet street in Great Notley, surrounded by trees and wildlife, often seeing deer and hedgehogs in the garden and listening to the owls and dawn chorus.  We have loved our time at Washall as a family, being close to local amenities, parks, cycle routes, as well as  having plenty of adventures through the local woodlands, over trolls bridges and pig stys when the children were younger."

**Guide Price £700,000 to £725,000**
