Opportunity knocks!
This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow presents a fantastic blank canvas with oodles of opportunity to potentially extend out into the rear garden, up into the loft space (as the neighbours have done) and/or reconfigure the existing floor plan to suit the ever-appealing open plan living.
The current set up of the bathroom and WC conveniently located next to each other, could easily be knocked through to create a large family bathroom, subject to local planning authority.
The accommodation comprises, hallway, lounge, kitchen, bathroom and 2 bedrooms of accommodation.
The local schools, both with an ‘Outstanding' Ofsted rating are as follows.
St Martins Secondary School just 0.7 miles away and Shenfield St. Marys CofE Primary School a mere 2.1 miles.
This bungalow is just 0.8 mile to Shenfield train station (London Liveprool St 29 minutes) and it's adjoining High Street.
Tesco express a shopping-bags swing away and the shops at Rayleigh parade includes a set of local shops which includes a 'Premier' Convenience Store, Newsagents and a Turkish Barbers, another parade which includes a Butchers and a couple of takeaways and a Co-op Supermarket.
ACCOMMODATION AS FOLLOWS..
ENTRANCE HALLWAY 2.64m x 2.41m (8'7' x 7'10')
Upvc door opens into the entrance hall, this leads to all the rooms and a loft hatch opens into large loft space, with a high pitch, it's likely this will blend well for into a loft conversion would add more living space, subject to local planning authority.
BEDROOM ONE 4.05m x 3.06 m (13‘3' × 10')
Situated at the front of the home, this room has two windows, one looking out to the front and one facing the side.
BEDROOM TWO 3.09m x 3.37m (10‘1' x 11‘0')
What a good size for a second room. This has two built in wardrobes and window facing the front of the home.
LIVING ROOM 3.65m x 5.22m (11‘11' × 17'1')
Great reception space for entertaining, overlooking the garden and with window and door leading to the outside.
Accompanied with fireplace that has gas fire.
KITCHEN/DINER 3.60m x 3.36m (11'11' × 11'2')
The existing floor plan lends itself to be converted into the ever-appealing open plan kitchen and lounge diner.
The current kitchen with a good range of cupboards and worktops, has a stainless steel kitchen sink with mixer tap overlooking the rear garden, split level double oven/grill and gas hob, with recess for washing machine and American style fridge freezer.
Upon the wall is the Ideal ‘Independent Combi 24' combination boiler serving the gas central heating and hot water.
The back door from the kitchen leads out to a set of steps leading down to the patio with a further flight of steps going down to the lawn.
OUTSIDE
GARAGE 4.3m x 2.8m (14'11' x 9'19')
Leading off of the driveway is the garage with timber bi fold doors.
FRONT GARDEN 46ft (14.02m)
Providing a good degree of privacy, the tall hedge arguably also absorbs much of the road noise, the garden surprisingly quiet when we were out there.
80 ft (24.4m) GARDEN
You'll be stuck for ideas for the garden as there are so many possibilities!
As well as being 80ft+, so a great size, its abundance of greenery also giving a high degree of privacy, although we thought chomping back the undergrowth at the end of the garden could reveal another 20 feet plus of garden, and would be the perfect spot for a large cabin/studio.
OUR THOUGHTS
The existing steps from the back door down to the patio could be rebuilt and we thought widened for easier access for older folks and the precast garage could be re-roofed and used as a great storage facility or even converted into a useful leisure building or home office et cetera.
We believe the wall between the kitchen and the lounge might be a simple timber stud wall which could be removed in minutes. We assume there was an original block work wall that was potentially removed and this timber frame will re-built at a later stage. This would thus give the potential for an modern open plan design Living/Dining/Kitchen Area.
Looking at the ridge height of the roof and the taller house to the left, there is the clear potential for a large loft conversion. We wonder if you could remove the side hip in favour of a increased height block work gable side wall to allow a wider dormer to the rear.
On the front boundary, a large tree has been heavily cut back and so may now offer the potential (subject to not having any tree preservation orders) for full removal, in favour of a new block paved front drive.
The Front Garden so big, that potentially you could fit 4+ cars on it comfortably.
