What our Owners Say

It has been an absolute dream to live here and, for us, has allowed us to fulfil a lifelong dream of having our horses at home. The location really is quite spectacular; surrounded by beautiful rolling countryside, we have enjoyed an incredible variety of wildlife on our doorstep, together with endless opportunities for long country walks, which invariably culminate in a well-earned tipple at the village pub! We will dearly miss everything that this wonderful home and its surroundings have given us, but we have made the decision to downsize and now feel it is time to pass the baton on to the next family, who we hope will enjoy this very special home as much as we have.

History & Background

Reddings is believed to date back to the 19th Century, with later additions, and remarkably remains unlisted. Offering an impressive 6,700 sq ft of accommodation, this magnificent country residence is steeped in charm and character, with an abundance of period features indicative of its era. A wealth of original detailing includes a plethora of feature fireplaces, beautiful timber panelling and a series of wonderfully impressive full-height sash windows, which flood the principal rooms with natural light.

The ground floor provides an impressive expanse of accommodation, centred around a majestic entrance hall and comprising four generous reception rooms, an impressive kitchen/breakfast room, utility room and wine cellar. The first floor continues to impress, featuring a cavernous principal bedroom with magnificent en suite bathroom, together with four further generous double bedrooms, all ably serviced by the family bathroom.

Externally, the spacious coach house provides a fabulous self-contained annexe, offering excellent flexibility for multi-generational living or independent accommodation. The main residence is approached via an impressive, elongated gated driveway, providing ample off-street parking for numerous vehicles.

The grounds further benefit from a superb detached indoor swimming pool complex, complete with changing room and WC. The equestrian facilities comprise four stables and a tack room, complemented by approximately 4.5 acres (stls) of wonderfully secluded grounds, creating an exceptional setting in which to enjoy the quintessential country lifestyle.

Setting & Location

Reddings occupies an enviable position set back behind impressive wrought iron gate along the Tillingham Road with the popular village of Asheldham, situated on the Dengie Peninsula and is approximately 3 miles from Southminster. The location provides the perfect balance of rural tranquillity and accessibility, with open countryside virtually on the doorstep and the beautiful Rivers Blackwater and Crouch both within easy reach.

Southminster provides a range of everyday amenities together with a railway station offering services into London Liverpool Street (approximately one hour) whilst Tillingham Church of England Primary School (currently Ofsted rated good) and local village shops are also close by. For senior schooling and sailing enthusiasts, Burnham-on-Crouch is approximately 6 miles away and offers a further range of amenities, schools and sailing clubs.

Despite its wonderfully rural setting, the property remains well connected, with road links providing access towards the M25 and Southend Airport, making Reddings an exceptional country retreat for those seeking space, privacy and the quintessential semi-rural lifestyle without sacrificing connectivity.

Ground Floor Accommodation

A welcoming vestibule, with elegant double doors, opens into the grand entrance hall, where an impressive balustrade staircase, featuring exquisite solid brass and walnut detailing, immediately sets the tone for the elegance and character that follows.

The reception rooms comprises three generous rooms, each retaining a wealth of original period features, including feature fireplaces, magnificent full-height sash windows with traditional shutters, beautiful timber panelling and high ceilings. Together, they create a series of wonderfully proportioned spaces, equally suited to formal entertaining and relaxed family living. Working from home is effortlessly catered for, with a dedicated study positioned to the front aspect, whilst a charming snug offers further flexibility and could equally serve as a second home office. An inner hallway provides access to a cloakroom/WC. At the heart of the home lies the superb bespoke country kitchen, beautifully appointed with solid oak cabinetry and worktops, complemented by Porcelanosa flooring, a striking copper sink and matching copper-topped island, finished in Farrow & Ball green. The result is a warm and inviting space perfectly suited to family life and entertaining, whilst a range of modern conveniences includes a boiling-water tap, integrated fridge-freezer and Total Control five-oven AGA, providing instant heat at the touch of a button. French doors open directly onto a sun-drenched terrace, creating a seamless connection between the kitchen and gardens and providing the perfect setting for alfresco dining or morning coffee. Practicality is equally well considered, with a walk-in pantry, boot room and dedicated laundry room, all providing access to a useful dry cellar, which offers excellent additional storage and could, subject to any necessary consents, be transformed into a superb wine cellar.

First Floor Accommodation

A sweeping staircase ascends to a light-filled landing, giving access to six generously proportioned bedrooms. Three are positioned within the principal part of the property, including the magnificent principal bedroom, which provides a wonderfully serene retreat and enjoys an exquisite en suite bathroom, complete with underfloor heating and a beautiful cast iron bath. Two further bedrooms on this level benefit from fitted wardrobes and enjoy picturesque views across the surrounding countryside. A secondary landing, finished with elegant wooden flooring, provides access to three additional bedrooms, one of which is currently utilised as a dressing room, together with a beautifully appointed family bathroom. The bathroom has been thoughtfully designed with underfloor heating, a classic cast iron bath and separate shower.

The charming gated paved courtyard to the rear of the main residence leads to the impressive coach house, which provides a spacious and completely self-contained annexe. The ground floor comprises a generous reception room adjoining a well-appointed kitchen and cloakroom, whilst the first floor offers a substantial bedroom, which could quite conceivably be reconfigured to create two generous double bedrooms, subject to the necessary planning consents.

Grounds & Equestrian Facilities

The property is approached via a pair of attractive wrought iron gates, flanked by handsome red brick pillars, which open onto an impressive, elongated shingle driveway, providing ample off-street parking for numerous vehicles.

The grounds are predominantly laid to sweeping lawns and incorporate a delightful orchard with a variety of established fruit trees, together with a productive kitchen garden.
