Location - Princes consists of two contemporary properties located on the borders of the village of Felsted, Essex. Designed with uninterrupted views over the Essex countryside providing a feeling of serenity, secluded yet still well connected.
Situated less than 2 miles from Felsted independent School and the local primary school, the properties are excellently located for those wanting to live a country life but with easy access to London. Commuters can reach London Liverpool Street in approximately 1 hour via Chelmsford train links and Stansted airport is a short 15 minute drive.
Felsted has two coffee shops, a small convenience store, a post office and two welcoming pubs. Encapsulating a sense of community with a local park and village hall too. The Flitch Way also runs alongside the village and is accessible from the properties, the former railway line offers a fantastic setting for dog walks, cycling, horse riding, running to name a few.
Felsted itself retains its historic charm, dating back to the Doomsday book. The church was built in the 1200s and the famous Boote house was built in 1596. It's a small village with a big personality and certainly a location with promise to provide a great sense of belonging.
