Exceptional Grade II* listed former candle factory enjoying an envious position just off Dedham High Street. This unique property offers substantial accommodation enhanced throughout by original features.
Nestled in the heart of the village, The Tallow Factory is an outstanding listed property blending historical allure with modern refinement. This exceptional home offers a rare opportunity to acquire a piece of history, while enjoying the comforts and conveniences of contemporary living. The residence spans several well-proportioned and beautifully appointed rooms, some of which boast distinctive architectural features that harken back to a bygone era.
The entrance to the property sets a tone of welcoming comfort and warmth, leading into a series of inviting spaces characterised by their bright, airy feel and clean lines. Notable in the original part of the house are the high beamed ceilings and large, light-enhancing windows which offer picturesque views of both the surrounding area and the lush, meticulously maintained garden.
Each room offers its own unique charm, from the cozy and intimate to the expansively accommodating. Careful restoration has preserved the original character of the property, including exposed timber frames and sloped ceilings, which add a touch of historical authenticity to the modernized interiors. This residence is not just a home but a living piece of art, perfect for those who appreciate the past but require the amenities of the present.
The kitchen marries functionality with aesthetic appeal. It is a space crafted for culinary enthusiasts, offering ample room for both cooking and social gatherings, and provides direct access to the garden.
The upper floors of the home are equally impressive, with each bedroom offering expansive spaces suffused with natural light. The architectural nuances of the property, such as the uniquely angled windows and thoughtfully placed skylights, ensure that each room is imbued with character and warmth.
The superb principal bedroom is a testament to the timeless elegance and architectural integrity of the property. Spanning a generous layout beneath exposed timber beams, the room is a perfect amalgamation of historical charm and modern comfort. Natural light pours through bespoke leaded windows, illuminating the intricate woodwork and enhancing the warmth of the space. This bedroom is not just a place for rest; it's a sanctuary that respects its historical roots while providing a serene escape from the everyday.
Outside, the garden is a captivating sanctuary, beautifully landscaped to provide a blend of privacy and tranquillity. Enclosed by traditional brick wall and hedgerow, mature trees and shrubs provide a tapestry of interest, creating intimate spaces and charming nooks, ideal for relaxation or casual outdoor entertaining.<br /><br />
