The Cross House, a landmark property in Layer de la Haye, has a rich history dating back to the 1750s. Once part of the Layer Hall Estate, it was later extended and became the Layer Hall itself. The property has undergone extensive alterations over the years, including the addition of outhouse buildings, a porch, and a verandah. The current owners have lived in the house for over 70 years and have enjoyed the private gardens of an acre and a half. The property is conveniently located near the village amenities, Abberton Reservoir, and Mersea Island. The interior features an impressive reception hall, formal dining room, and drawing room, as well as a study, kitchen, and utility room. The first floor has a generous T-shaped landing, four bedrooms, and two bathrooms. The property also boasts extensive outbuildings, including garages, a stable, and storage rooms, as well as beautifully landscaped parkland-style gardens with specimen trees, an orchard, kitchen garden, rose garden, and two greenhouses.
