7 bed detached house for sale

London Road, Sawbridgeworth CM21

An Icon in the Heart of Sawbridgeworth
Dating back to the early 18th Century, The Clock House is one of Sawbridgeworth’s most distinguished residences, an elegant, double-fronted Georgian home steeped in history and character. This substantial six-bedroom property spans over 4,700 sq ft and occupies a generous plot of approximately one-third of an acre, right in the centre of town.

The Home
Internally, the home exudes charm with original features such as towering ceilings, tall sash and bay windows, decorative fireplaces, and extensive timber framing. While set on the main road, it enjoys an unexpected sense of peace and quiet, providing a welcome sanctuary from the bustle beyond. The ground floor hosts an impressive array of living spaces including a formal drawing room with garden-facing bay, a warm and welcoming sitting room, separate dining room, breakfast room, study, and a well-appointed kitchen with adjoining utility. A cloakroom and access to a usable basement complete the ground floor.

Upstairs, a wide landing leads to six generously sized bedrooms. The principal bedroom benefits from a large en-suite shower room, while two further bathrooms and a separate WC serve the remaining rooms. Many bedrooms enjoy views over the gardens and retain the period elegance found throughout.

The Grounds & Outbuildings
Outside, the home is framed by beautifully maintained gardens to the front and rear. A paved terrace, sweeping lawns, and mature borders offer a peaceful and private setting. To one side, a large driveway provides off-street parking for multiple vehicles and access to the impressive outbuildings.

These outbuildings include two large garages and a former stable block with a distinctive clock feature, from which the property takes its name. Above the stables is a large loft room, ideal for conversion into a home office, studio, or annexe, subject to permissions. A separate garden store offers further practicality.

Location
The Clock House enjoys a superb position in the centre of Sawbridgeworth, within walking distance of local shops, restaurants, pubs, schools, and the mainline station offering direct services to London Liverpool Street and Cambridge. Larger towns such as Bishop’s Stortford and Harlow are both around 4 miles away, each offering additional shopping and transport options, plus access to the M11 and Stansted Airport.
