The original house has been sympathetically extended, during the 1990s, to create a charming and versatile home.
Boxted is only two miles south of Nayland which has a good range of local amenities including a butchers, post office, doctors surgery, village stores, primary school and pub.
This home is in a lovely setting.
It lies on a quiet country lane, amidst woodland and delightful rolling countryside and yet is only six miles from Colchester railway station.

A wide sandstone terrace adjoins the cottage beyond which lie lawns bordered by well-stocked herbaceous borders, a rose trellis, with raised vegetable beds and numerous trees and shrubs.
The small front garden is enclosed by parkland fencing and planted with a selection of Cants roses.
