Welcome to Beavis Hall, a truly extraordinary country residence where centuries of history blend seamlessly with modern luxury. Originally built in the 15th century and enhanced with additions in 1664, the 1700s, and a stunning renovation in 2006, this breathtaking Grade II listed country estate is more than just a truly remarkable home.
As you pass through the gated entrance and glide down the sweeping private driveway, you're immediately greeted by an enchanting one-acre beautifully landscaped gardens. Nestled within this oasis is not only the main residence but also a charming detached Essex barn, a fully equipped gym, garaging, a cinema room, and an inviting outdoor swimming pool with its own pool house. All of this is set against the backdrop of open countryside, offering peace, privacy, and uninterrupted views.
Step inside, and Beavis Hall instantly feels like home. The stunning central atrium floods the house with light, creating a space where you’ll love to entertain or simply unwind. The bespoke kitchen, complete with shaker-style cabinetry, granite countertops, and a four-oven AGA with a gas hob, is a chef’s dream—whether you’re whipping up a casual breakfast or hosting a dinner party. Across the atrium, the reception rooms are filled with warmth and character, featuring original beams and an exquisite fireplace, complete with a wood-burning stove that makes the space feel cozy and welcoming. With French doors leading to the garden, the study/music room provides the perfect setting to get creative or simply relax.
Upstairs, the principal bedroom is nothing short of spectacular. Located in the modern wing of the house, the master bedroom offers a stunning private balcony with two sets of double doors opening onto it. It really is your own tranquil retreat where you can relax with a morning coffee or enjoy a glass of wine as the sun sets over the countryside horizon. The luxurious en-suite bathroom features his-and-hers sinks and a separate shower for an added touch of elegance. Nearby, the fourth bedroom offers its own en-suite and a cozy mezzanine level—ideal as a quiet hideaway or study.
Over in the other side of the house there are four further bedrooms, one of which being the second principle bedroom which offers space and comfort along with ample built in storage and a mezzanine walk through wardrobe and stylish en-suite. Three additional bedrooms and a cloakroom complete the upper level, providing plenty of space for family and guests.
The south-facing gardens are a true delight, bathed in sunlight and thoughtfully designed with luscious, mature trees, well-maintained lawns, and vibrant shrub borders. Box hedging, red brick pathways, and seating areas create intimate spots to relax, while an ornamental pond and paved patio add to the charm. For visitors, ample parking is conveniently available.
At the heart of the property stands a stunning detached Essex barn, where the traditional oak timbered frame remains proudly visible. This versatile space offers endless potential, with a first-floor gym and adjoining garage/machinery store featuring double doors, an art studio, workshop or storage area, additional garaging, and a cozy cinema room. One side of the barn is framed by elegant wrought-iron gates and railings, adding to its classic appeal.
Set on approximately one acre, the estate extends to the swimming pool area—perfectly maintained with paved seating, lounging space, and a spacious pool house. The pool house is equipped with a shower room, a full eat-in kitchen with an oven and hob, and ample space for entertaining on the decked patio. The pool itself is thoughtfully designed with a cover, while a timber storage shed provides a convenient place to stow outdoor furnishings. From here, you can take in breathtaking views of the open countryside, creating an idyllic setting for relaxation or entertaining.
Among the garden’s many features is a charming summerhouse, raised on stilts, offering a peaceful hideaway for a studio or workspace. It’s the perfect spot to retreat, work, or enjoy the serene surroundings.
