Property description

Hugely impressive, this beautiful Home offers the perfect blend of traditional kerbside appeal contrasted with a very modern and contemporary interior and a sunny South facing Garden that extends round to an equally private, West facing side Garden.

The 31ft x 11ft Garage incorporates plumbing already in place, allowing a straightforward Annexe conversion with space to the right of the house for a detached Garage if required.

Within the Garden is a superb, detached Ancillary Outbuilding with a pitched tiled roof, previously used as the owners company HQ, so with plenty of plug sockets, BT point, Air Conditioning, a kitchenette and a loo.

Even the matching shed is above the norm, a sturdy building with sliding Patio doors on the front - ripe for conversion to a small Studio

The cleverly designed, free-flowing open plan ground floor living space briefly comprises a long Hall with a built-in coat cupboard and attractive 'Oak' effect wood flooring, a snazzy ground floor WC Room, 17ft 5' x 14ft Lounge area with tri-fold doors opening wide to the Garden, great size 13ft Dining Room with 'Grey Oak' effect flooring, 9ft 6' Study and a stunning 17ft Kitchen/Breakfast Room with bespoke handmade ‘Pearl Dakar' Shaker style units, gorgeous 'Grey Oak' woodgrain textured worktops and integrated neff appliances.

Upstairs the straight staircase opens on to the big landing, in turn leading off to the handsomely proportioned Bedrooms and luxury designer look Bathroom - the spacious 17ft Master Bedroom having its own contemporary designer Ensuite Shower Room and Bedroom Two having a 7ft walk-in Wardrobe with plumbing in-situ, ready for easy conversion to a 2nd Ensuite Shower if desired.

This is a very high specification home with many features, including Air-Conditioning, elegant upvc Sash windows to the front, upvc double glazing, new Vaillant boiler serving the gas fired central heating via radiators, inset down lighting, modern electrics and a new Drive.

Just off the popular Noak Hill Road, the Noak Mead of 2020 encompasses 'Watch House Farm' an old Victorian Dairy Farm on Wash Road, Church Road, a couple of turnings dating back to the 1940's (Royston Avenue & Martindale Avenue) and a small modern estate built in the 1990's by Countryside Homes, who named it Noak Mead in keeping with the neighbouring village of Noak Bridge.

Across Noak Hill Road, within the Steeple View estate, a Londis Convenience store is the nearest shop and just a 7 minute stroll, with more shops in Noak Bridge and a large Asda is just a 2 minute drive away, the other side of the A127.

The Accommodation
Hall


A great first impression, with the open-plan layout creating a very stylish and contemporary look.

The glazed front door and its twin, full height side light windows either side pour in light, which reflects off the curved wall opposite, itself gently winding round to the main Hall area where a raised platform leads onto the stairs, in turn rising to the 1st floor.

Oak effect wood flooring brings warmth and character and a built-in cupboard provides a tidy place for coats and shoes.

Across the raised platform is the Dining Room, to the left is a useful Study and straight ahead, the Hall meanders into the main open plan living area with the Kitchen/Breakfast Area in front, the Lounge area to the right.

Although the majority of the ground floor enjoys a very stylish and spacious open concept, for the purposes of description we shall separate the areas:

Lounge area 17ft 5' x 13ft 10' (5.3m x 4.2m)

The Owners huge L-shaped Sofa set fits perfectly within this area, which is bathed in light by a wide set of trifold doors opening out to the South facing garden and a further side facing window.

A discreet yet good size understairs cupboard provides a useful storage facility in addition to housing the wiring for the home entertainment system.

Here and throughout the property, the smooth plastered ceilings have elegant coving and inset downlighting.

A real boon during this long summer, the vendors installed air-conditioning, which of course will be staying. The unit here a Mitsubishi srk which was chosen for its quiet, high-performance cooling and heating system and its slim profile.

Dining area 13ft x 9ft 10' (4m x 3m)

This tasteful room features twin front facing UPVC double glazed sash windows, perfectly in keeping with the character look of the property.

You'll want to invite friends round to dinner all the time as this oversized dining room will take a large dining table and chairs with ease and features gorgeous 'Grey Oak' effect flooring.

Study 9ft 6' x 6ft 5' (2.9m x 2m)

With more people now working from home, this room makes for the perfect home office.

Kitchen/breakfast area 16ft 8' x 10ft 8' min (5.1m x 3.25m)

The stunning, bespoke kitchen is a timeless and elegant confection of handmade ‘Pearl Dakar' Shaker style units, gorgeous 'Grey Oak' woodgrain textured worktops, neff appliances and hand cut tiles.

The notably wide, rear facing window streams in light and the attractive Grey Oak effect flooring picks up perfectly with the grey worktops.

A projecting Peninsula unit gives separation from the Lounge Area and incorporates a breakfast bar.

The host of built-in and integrated appliances briefly comprises a neff Gas Hob with a stainless steel Chimney Extractor hood above, a built-in multifunction neff Double Oven, neff integrated Dishwasher and a side-by-side John Lewis tall Fridge and Freezer.

Utility room 9ft x 6ft 2' (2.7m x 1.9m)

Boasting the same matching units and attractive Grey Oak flooring as in the kitchen and incorporating a single bowl single drainer sink unit and housing for both a washing machine and tumble dryer.

We noted that even the modern consumer unit has been housed within a matching slimline cabinet.

A lockable internal door provides accessed to the huge garage.
Ground floor WC room


Making a great impression in a small space, this smart little room has a white suite comprising a white gloss Vanity unit and a close coupled WC.

Your eyes will be drawn to the rather striking, black split edge effect wall tiling, which incorporates a recessed mirror and some rather snazzy lighting and hidden behind the door is a graphite towel radiator.

Straight Staircase from hall to:

1st floor landing

A spacious landing which leads off to all bedrooms.

Master bedroom 17ft x 12ft (5.2m x 3.7m)

A splendid size bedroom with twin, front facing Sash windows enjoying a pleasant rustic outlook across the old farm opposite and beyond, with Billericay in the distance.

A wide recess on the left has been fitted out with hand-built chest-height storage cupboards with above this, a recess for a large television.

Just out of camera shot is the wall mounted Mitsubishi air-conditioning unit, the same as the one in the lounge.

Ensuite shower room 8ft 9' x 3ft 2' (2.7m x 1m)

This stylish and seriously good-looking, designer style Ensuite Shower Room, is the perfect harmony of beautiful wall and floor tiling, a folding glass door enclosed Shower, featuring an overhead, Rainfall type Showerhead with a separate handset too, for extra flexibility, a close coupled WC under the far side window, Dark Grey Wood effect wall hung Vanity unit and a chrome towel radiator.

Inset within the tiles is a large mirror with a shaver/toothbrush socket next to it.

Bedroom two 15ft x 12ft narrowing to 10ft 6' (4.6m x 3.7m > 3.2m)

Sunny and bright, the twin sash windows of this bedroom sweep in an abundance of light, bouncing off the sugar white walls.

This bedroom also benefits from an air-conditioner and also has one more boast: An internal door that opens to reveal a 7ft x 3ft 8' (2.1m x 1.1m) walk-in Wardrobe that we understand has all the plumbing for easy conversion to a second Ensuite shower room if desired.

Bedroom three 13ft x 12ft 9' (4m x 3.9m)

Another fine size double bedroom, this one to the rear.

Bedroom four 13ft x 9ft 6' (4m x 2.9m)

Even the fourth bedroom is a good size double bedroom, this one fitted out as a rather glamorous dressing room.

Sleek Matte Grey fitted bespoke units incorporate a bank of wardrobes, a further full height unit with a large double cupboard sitting atop twin sets of drawers and adjacent to this, a full height open shelving unit.

Bathroom 8ft 9' x 5ft 9' (2.7m x 1.75m)

This luxury contemporary bathroom features a large Showerbath with a mixer tap and shower attachment, along with a close coupled WC and a Dark Grey Vanity unit.

Like the Ensuite, the gorgeous ceramic tiling to the walls and floor gives a fabulous overall look with the specification further enhanced by the tall chrome towel radiator.

The side facing window provides lots of natural daylight.
Exterior - front



Newly resurfaced, the shingle drive provides a sea of parking, the majority enclosed by the low fence panels which overtime will be partly obscured by the young laurels that have been planted in front of them.

Garage 22ft x 11ft (6.7m x 3.35m)

Absolutely perfect for the car enthusiast as it is much bigger than an average garage and comes with an 8ft 5' (2.6m) high ceiling, giving an even greater impression of size.

During construction, the fit out incorporated installing plumbing which would allow for easy conversion to an Annexe - a smart move.

At the end of the garage, a step up leads into the attached Workshop.

Workshop 10ft 9' x 9ft (3.3m x 2.74m)

With a rear facing window and part glazed 'back door'.

Upon the wall is the a-rated Vaillant boiler.

Rear garden 40ft x 49ft (12.2m x 15m)

The south facing rear garden commences with a timber Deck, which steps down to an extensive Indian Sandstone Paved Patio.

The neat lawn is well looked after and there are two rather handsome Outbuildings - more on these later.

Side garden 20ft x 19ft (6.1m x 5.8m)

Again, neatly laid to lawn with a path from the side gate.

Between the two gardens, the large area of paving, part of which is covered by a feature Pergola, gives plenty of room for the biggest table and chairs and inviting alfresco dining and evening barbecues during the warm summer months.

The cabin 19ft x 9ft 2' (5.8m x 2.8m)

A first-class building of brick and timber frame construction, below a pitched tiled roof, the tiles matching those with the main house.

It was used for a while as Office space for a fledgling, now successful business, and so was plasterboard-drylined, decorated and kitted out with numerous power sockets, a kitchenette and even a separate Loo.

There is even a Toshiba wall mounted air-conditioning unit here too, again providing high efficiency summer cooling and winter heating.

Shed 12ft x 8ft (3.7m x 2.4m)

Even the shed is a cut above the norm, a sturdy affair also with a pitched tiled roof matching that of the main house.

We understand both water pipework and armoured cable runs up to the shed, which along with its 22mm chipboard flooring and set of twin opening doors means this also could be very easily converted into a home studio.

This really is a very impressive, high specification home and worthy of an internal viewing at your earliest convenience to avoid disappointment.
