Property description
Boasting a very sunny, due South facing Garden and a big front Garden & Drive, this three bedroom Semi-detached House is also very conveniently located, just a short 5 minute stroll from the shops, bars and restaurants of Billericay High Street, along with its central Waitrose Store.
Billericay School is a 30 second dash away for the kids and Quilters School is only a 4 minute walk too, as is the green space of 'Sun Corner'.
For the City Commuter, the Station is also within close proximity at 0.7 mile.
Well presented throughout, the property itself has undergone a program of refurbishment since the owners bought it seven years ago with the present day accommodation comprising an Entrance Hall, modern open plan Living/Dining/Kitchen Room featuring a wood burning Stove and bi-folding doors at the Lounge end and attractive light grey 'Handleless' Kitchen units with White Marble effect worktops and all integrated appliances to the Kitchen area, a useful walk-in Store Room off the Hall which goes under the stairs, Bathroom with a white suite, the three bedrooms and a 1st floor WC Room.
The windows are double glazed, there is Gas Central Heating, underfloor heating in the Kitchen area, new carpets upstairs and the Garden has two Sheds (one very large) and side access.
The Accommodation:
Hall
Attractive Oak effect wood flooring greets you as you enter, this continuing into the Lounge area and the walk-in Storeroom.
The ceiling has a smooth plastered finish, as found throughout the home, with inset LED lighting and decorative cornice to finish.
A tall vertical designer radiator provides the finishing flourish.
Storeroom 1.85m Max x 1.7m Max (6ft 1' x 5ft 7')
More than just an understairs cupboard, this useful area provides a great storage facility and we wondered whether a fitted worktop somewhere could create a little study area.
At present this handy little room houses the modern electrical consumer unit, the Vaillant ecoTEC plus 831 Combination Boiler, Gas Meter and a Smart Meter for the electrics.
Open plan living/dining/kitchen space
Although a single 21ft+ long open plan living space, for the purposes of description we shall divide it into two areas:
Lounge area 4.1m x 3.7m (13ft 5' x 12ft)
Taking advantage of its South facing rear Garden, sunshine floods through the bi-fold Doors and over the wood flooring.
The focal point of this area is the Fireplace, which features an 'Aga' Multifuel Stove with a Granite Hearth. Either side of the chimney breast are fitted storage units topped with solid wood countertops and with 'floating' shelving above.
Kitchen area 3m x 2.7m (9ft 10' x 8ft 9')
Underfloor heating rises evenly up through the beautiful Valencian grey marble effect porcelain floor tiles of this stylish and practical Kitchen area, which has an attractive range of shiny light grey gloss 'Handleless' units with swish 'white marble' effect worktops.
There's a Stoves Induction Hob with an Integrated Extractor Hood above and an AEG Multi-function Oven below, AEG Integrated Dishwasher, Integrated John Lewis 7kg Load/A++ Energy Rating/1400rpm Washing Machine and a recess for a full height Fridge/Freezer.
A rear window over the sink and a further side facing window spills even more light into this Hub-of-the-Home living space, with inset LED downlighting for evening/night-time.
Bathroom 2.45m x 1.5m (8ft x 4ft 10')
Fully functional and very clean bathroom with a modern white suite and separate Triton electric shower over the bath. The walls have been fully tiled, as has the floor. There is also a tall chrome towel radiator, mirror fronted bathroom cabinet and a front facing window providing plenty of natural light.
Stairs from Hall to:
1st floor landing
Soft underfoot, the deep pile grey carpet of the stairs extends onto the landing where looking up, we see a large Loft hatch, which flips down to reveal a sturdy fitted wooden loft ladder. The Loft itself has been boarded out and is well lit courtesy of two tubes and a pendant light.
Master bedroom 3.5m x 3m (11ft 6' x 10ft)
Sugar white walls and the 8ft high ceiling gives an even greater impression of light and space to this rear facing double bedroom.
Bedroom two 3.5m x 2.6m (11ft 7' x 8ft 6')
Another tastefully decorated bedroom with a front facing window and a large built-in cupboard incorporating a thermostatically controlled radiator.
Bedroom three 3.1m x 1.9m (10ft 2' x 6ft 4')
A very good size single bedroom with a stylish vintage column radiator and chrome plated sockets and light switch.
1st floor WC room 1.7m x 0.8m (5ft 6' x 2ft 7')
Striking grey patterned floor tiles in coordinating geometric designs provides contrast to the textured gloss white wall tiles of this upstairs loo, fitted with a white 2-piece suite comprising a close coupled WC and white gloss Vanity unit.
A vintage style combination towel rail rail/radiator completes the look and a rear facing obscure glass window brings in plenty of natural light.
Exterior - front
Set well back from the road, the property enjoys a big Front Drive and adjacent front lawn too.
Wide gated access on one side leads round to:
Exterior - garden
Commencing with a slate effect paved Patio, the balance mainly laid to lawn, with various shrubs and young trees providing additional foliage.
Both sheds will be remaining, a smaller tool shed and a very large workshop/shed with double doors and a window.
