Property description & features

  • Tenure: Freehold
  • Semi rural location
  • Detached family home
  • Two reception rooms
  • Kitchen and utility room
  • Three bedrooms
  • Two bathrooms
  • Off road parking and garage
  • Plot of 0.34 acres (STS)
Located on a semi-rural plot of approximately 0.34 acres (STS), this mid-century, detached family home offers accommodation comprising two reception rooms, kitchen, utility room, cloakroom, three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The property also benefits from a double garage with inspection pit, off-road parking and gardens.

Benefitting from its semi-rural plot in the midst of the beautiful North Essex countryside, this detached family home offers spacious, well-presented accommodation over two floors.
The property is approached via a gravel driveway, which provides ample off-road parking and leads to both the garage and entrance door.
Once inside, an ample entrance hall provides a place in which to greet guests before moving through to the main living accommodation.
A dual aspect sitting room is located away from the main hubbub of a busy household and a calming place in which to relax at the end of a busy day. The addition of an inset wood burner adds warmth and ambience during the cooler months.
The adjacent dining room / family room has plenty of space for a large table - ideal for entertaining family and friends - and with double doors opening onto the terrace, the party can flow outside.
The kitchen is presented in classic off-white, providing plenty of space for food preparation. The adjoining utility room benefits from its own direct access to the garden.
A cloakroom completes the ground floor accommodation.
On the first floor, a spacious landing room offers more than just a pass-through to the bedrooms - and could be a lovely reading nook or useful study space.
The three bedrooms share use of a shower room and bathroom.
Outside, to the rear, beautifully landscaped gardens commence with a terrace - ideal for outside dining during the warmer months - with steps leading up to an expanse of lawn, interspersed and bordered by mature shrubs and trees - all enhanced by countryside views and glorious North Essex skies.

    Broadband availability and predicted speed: obtained from Ofcom on July 18, 2024

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on July 18, 2024

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services

    Energy Performance data and Internal floor area: obtained on February 17, 2015 from The Energy Performance of Buildings (Certificates and Inspections) (England and Wales) Regulations 2007 or the Home Report if in relation to a residential property in Scotland.
