Property Description

Experience the essence of Essex village living in this distinguished historic home. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the village, 17 Scholes Lane is a master class in period charm and modern amenities offering a peaceful, sun-drenched retreat where 18th-century soul blends seamlessly with high-end, contemporary finishes. Thoughtfully renovated to prioritize water view, light and flow. At its center is the airy chef's kitchen, a striking space featuring, architectural drama, soaring vaulted ceilings and oversized windows that bathe the room in natural light and maximize the expansive water view. Exquisite finishes, custom cabinetry anchored by a natural stone island, and designer details like premium Waterworks fixtures provide a polished, timeless touch. Throughout the home, the character of 1784 is vibrantly alive. You'll find original paneling, wide-plank flooring, and period doors with their authentic hardware. The first-floor primary suite offers a private sanctuary of modern luxury. The ensuite bathroom is a work of art, featuring marble-tiled floors and walls paired with elegant Waterworks appointments. Adding to the old-world charm are the three working wood burning fireplaces. One is centered in the Living Room which features a floor to ceiling bow picture window capturing the ever-changing, picturesque water view and nature.
