4 bedroom detached house for sale

Occupying a simply stunning plot in excess of 1/3 of an acre on the fringes of Burnham-on-Crouch, is this wonderfully spacious detached character family home. The property offers substantial living accommodation throughout as well as impressive mature gardens and is positioned on the edge of the town, yet still within walking distance to the centre where an array of local amenities are on offer including pubs, restaurants, shops, post office, doctors surgery and railway station which offers direct link into London Liverpool Street. The property does require a degree of modernisation throughout, however offers vast potential to both improve and extend (stpp). Currently, the living accommodation commences on the ground floor with an entrance porch leading to an airy reception hall. This in turn leads to a three impressive reception rooms, a studio/bedroom, cloakroom, 'L' shaped kitchen/breakfast room with adjoining utility room and superb garden room at the rear of the living room. The first floor then offers a landing area leading to three double bedrooms and a family bathroom and an en-suite to the master bedroom. Due to the size and layout of the master bedroom, this could easily be divided to create an extra bedroom if required. Externally, the property enjoys a simply stunning, mature and established rear garden measuring approx. 135' x 70' with an array of seating areas, planted borders and storage buildings, while one of the most eye catching gated frontages in Burnham-on-Crouch provides a further garden area and substantial driveway providing extensive off road parking and access to an impressive double garage with a wash room/studio area at the rear and a wealth of further potential to possibly extend the living space into two storeys, again if required (stpp).
