The AreaCoggeshall

Coggeshall is one of Essex’s most characterful villages — a thriving, historic community just a 20-minute walk from the house. Brimming with charm, it offers timber-framed buildings, a weekly market, independent shops and three welcoming pubs. Food lovers are in good hands, with Ranfield’s Brasserie and Rupert’s Wine Bar both firm local favourites. In the other direction lies Kelvedon — equally vibrant, with cafés, convenience stores, a popular nursery and a well-regarded primary school. The area is known for its strong education options, including Colchester and Chelmsford Grammar Schools, as well as leading independents like Felsted, New Hall and Holmwood House. Outdoor life is easily embraced, with Braxted Park and The Essex Golf & Country Club nearby for golf, spa days and fitness. A network of footpaths and bridleways weaves through the surrounding countryside — perfect for weekend walks or riding out. Colchester and Chelmsford are within easy reach for shopping and dining, and London is under an hour by train from Kelvedon. And for a weekend adventure with the family, the coast at Frinton or West Mersea is less than 30 minutes away.

Coggeshall Hall, KelvedonAbout this home

Coggeshall Hall is a house of rare quality, where historic architecture meets exceptional taste and craftsmanship. Approached via a long, tree-lined drive, this Grade II listed former manor house sits within 12 acres of formal gardens, meadows and mature woodland. Originally built in 1575, with a graceful Georgian wing added in the early 1800s, it has been carefully and beautifully reimagined by the current owners over the past 30 years. Every room is finished to an immaculate standard. The Georgian drawing room is elegant and light-filled, while the older part of the house brings warmth and character — oak beams, original floorboards and a vast inglenook fireplace. In the kitchen, clean-lined Bulthaup cabinetry sits effortlessly beside a centuries-old bread oven and AGA. The flow between old and new is seamless. Upstairs, the principal suite is peaceful and refined, with far-reaching views over the gardens and wildflower meadow. Additional bedrooms and attic rooms provide flexibility for family or guests, all beautifully interior designed. The outbuildings are extensive, including a 3,800 sq ft party barn, two studios, garages and a smaller wellness building with a jacuzzi and sauna. In the meadow beyond, young oak trees — grown from acorns from nearby Marks Hall — are taking root for future generations. This is a house of quiet grandeur — deeply loved, immaculately kept, and ready for its next chapter.
