Features and description
- Tenure: Freehold
- 3 Bed Bungalow just half a mile from the High Street yet all but adjacent to open Countryside
- Exceptionally large 80ft wide plot with well maintained feature Front Gardens and small rear Garden
- Standout feature is its substantial 35ft x 12ft fully detached double-length Garage
- Spacious Lounge (23ft 6" x 14ft 5" is triple aspect with a feature Fireplace and sliding drs to Gdn
- Separate Dining Room could serve as optional 3rd Bedroom
- Both main bedrooms are identically sized doubles with fitted wardrobes
- Bathroom is notably large and the Kitchen/Breakfast Room is comprehensively fitted
- South facing Rear Garden is short but very wide, designed for low maintainance
- There`s extra Garden space to the side too. Front spans 80ft & extends back 37ft
- Whilst somewhat dated throughout, it is `very livable` and offers a blank canvas.
Boasting a huge 35ft x 12ft fully detached Double length Garage and an 80 ft wide plot, this 2/3 bedroom Bungalow is literally just a stone's throw from open countryside yet also just half a mile from Billericay High Street - the perfect retirement move.
The extensive and beautifully maintained front gardens give the property great kerbside appeal and compliment the rear Garden which is short but very wide and due South facing, providing easy low maintenance looking after within a Sun Trap enviroment. Plus a wide area to the side of the property gives more space for a private patio, an allotment area, or maybe even an additional side extension. Perhaps it could also be the site of a new garage if you were able to convert the existing garage to an Annexe (subject to local authority approval of course).
The property is somewhat dated throughout but very liveable and offers a blank canvas for the next owners.
Internally, the accommodation briefly comprises:
• A large Hall
• Huge 23' × 14'6" triple aspect Lounge with open Fireplace
• Separate Dining Room (optional third bedroom as the Lounge is certainly big enough to be used as a Lounge/Diner)
• Both the Lounge and Dining Room sport glazed double doors from the Hall
• Large Kitchen/Breakfast Room
• Two identical-sized double bedrooms within the bedroom wing
• Very large bathroom
The property also benefits from full gas central heating, double-glazed windows and NO ONWARD CHAIN.
The Accommodation in more detail:
HALL 13ft x 7ft (3.96m x 2.13m)
A nice and spacious first entrance with a circular stained glass window in the exposed feature brick wall.
LOUNGE 23ft 6" x 14ft 5" (7.16m x 4.39m)
A set of glazed double doors from the Hall swing open to this splendidly proportioned, triple aspect living room, flooded with light from all angles and with the focal point, the Yorkstone fireplace.
10 feet (3.05m) wide, the sliding patio doors also provide access to the garden.
DINING ROOM 11ft 2" x 8ft 5" (3.40m x 2.57m)
Again with a set of glazed double doors from the Hall, this versatile front-facing room could equally be adapted for use as a third bedroom.
KITCHEN/BREAKFAST ROOM 14ft 7" x 10ft 9" (4.45m x 3.28m)
A large kitchen allowing for a comprehensive range of fitted kitchen units.
There is a freestanding electric cooker which is to remain; the undercounter fridge, undercounter freezer, tumble dryer and washing machine all potentially to remain as well, subject to negotiation.
A glazed door with accompanying window leads out to the rear garden.
INNER HALL 6ft 2" x 5ft 9" (1.88m x 1.75m)
Loft hatch accessing the attic space and three internal doors leading off to the two bedrooms and bathroom.
BEDROOM ONE 11ft 8" x 9ft 10" (3.56m x 3.00m)
A front-facing double bedroom enjoying a pleasant outlook over the street and with dated but functional fitted bedroom furniture (wardrobes, chest of drawers, bedside cabinets).
BEDROOM TWO 11ft 8" x 9ft 10" (3.56m x 3.00m)
Identical in size to Bedroom One, this bedroom is situated to the rear of the bungalow, also coming with dated yet functional fitted bedroom furniture (wardrobes, dressing table, chest drawers and bedside cabinets).
BATHROOM 8ft 3" x 7ft (2.51m x 2.13m)
In need of updating but perfectly functional and notably large.
The wide rear-facing window provides plenty of natural light.
EXTERIOR
FRONT
Nearly 80 feet (24.38m) wide, and set back some 37 feet (11m), the grounds to the front are quite expansive.
There is plenty of room for the two-car block-paved drive and two large lawns either side of the central path.
It would of course be possible to have the option of an in-and-out drive.
Between the main Bungalow and the huge Garage is a gated side access, with there plenty of width to the other side too, to have the same (currently simply fenced off).
GARAGE 35ft x 11ft 10" (10.67m x 3.61m)
Huge!
The pitched roof enhances its feeling of space and provides storage up in the rafters.
The garage door is remote controlled electric.
Natural light comes in through two windows and a part-glazed courtesy door provides access in and out from the garden. We noted a fuse box on the wall providing the garage with electricity and lighting.
GARDEN
South facing and paved for low maintenance.
There's extra garden area down one side too.
WHAT WE THOUGHT
The Garage is a cracking size and would make a great separate Annexe for elderly family members as well as the obvious Home Office, Studio, small business premises (Treatment Room etc)
You could also lose the rear half to gain more garden.
We spyed a circular window in the attic space and with the pitch looking tall enough to potentially take a Loft Conversion - that could be another way of adding value to the property.
