Like this property? Maybe you'll like these ones close by too.
In addition, a parade of shops, including a handy Co-Op Convenience store providing the daily essentials, is literally just around the corner and the north entrance to the 40 acres of Lake Meadows Park is also just a quick 5-minute saunter away too. Billericay High Street with its Shops, Bars, Restaurants and its centrepiece Waitrose Store is also within easy amble too, being approx. 0.9 mile.
The Accommodation
HALL 10ft x 7ft 7" (3.05m x 2.31m)
A nice size Hall, which is also very well lit courtesy of the fully glazed front door and its large adjacent window.
The under stairs cupboard houses the electrical fuses and gas meter.
LOUNGE/DINER 22ft 6" x 10ft 6" narrowing to 10ft 3" (6.86m x 3.20m > 3.12m)
Dual aspect as it is a front to back living room, and as such, is flooded with light coming in through the large front facing window and the equally large rear facing set of sliding patio doors.
The focal point of course is the fireplace which we understand to be fully open and therefore giving options of a traditional open fire or a small log burner perhaps.
KITCHEN 11ft 5" x 8ft (3.48m x 2.44m)
Fitted with a dated yet very functional range of 'antique oak' effect units incorporating spaces for under counter appliances (washing machine, fridge, freezer, potential dishwasher etc.) and an open space for the freestanding electric cooker.
The original built-in Pantry (2ft 10" x 3ft or 0.86m x 0.94m) could easily be removed for more units, and would actually make the Kitchen feel bigger as well.
There is of course the obvious potential to open up the Kitchen with the dining end of the Lounge/Diner adjacent.
There's plenty of working light in this KITCHEN courtesy of the half glazed back door, large window over the 1.5 bowl sink and a further side facing window.
Stairs from HALL to:
1ST FLOOR LANDING
The large side facing window throws a lot of light across the stairwell, onto the notably spacious Landing which also has a built-in cupboard, originally housing the hot water tank, but with the new combination boiler up in the loft, this cupboard has been freed up for pure storage.
MASTER BEDROOM 11ft 8" x 10ft (3.56m x 3.05m)
A generous size double bedroom with fitted wardrobes along the far wall and a front facing window.
BEDROOM TWO 11ft 3" x 8ft 6" (3.43m x 2.59m)
The measurements exclude the depth of the fitted wardrobes which run along the left wall.
This is another good sized double bedroom with the exposed floorboards sanded and varnished and the large window brings in plenty of light.
BEDROOM THREE 8ft 2" x 6ft 9" (2.49m x 2.06m)
Not a bad size bedroom at all as the stair bulkhead hasn't taken up a lot of room as you often find in these third bedrooms.
There is a built-in cupboard and again we see a large window, front facing this time, which again streams in lots of natural light.
BATHROOM 7ft x 5ft 6" (2.13m x 1.68m)
Dated yet remarkably clean.
Fully tiled and with a modern Triton T80 Easi electric shower over the deep, cast iron bath.
A roof facing window provides plenty of natural light.
LOFT
Housing the two-year-old Vaillant ecoFIT pure Eco Gas combination boiler (therefore still retaining 8 years of its 10-year warranty).
EXTERIOR:
FRONT
The front garden has long since been paved over and in recent decades a large area of block paving has been laid across both this and next doors drive (obviously done at the same time).
Shingled relief along the front and left boundaries could easily be planted up, we thought. The front brick boundary wall appears quite sturdy too.
GARAGE 17'9" x 8ft (5.41m x 2.44m)
Of precast construction with a couple of windows, a set of timber double doors.
GARDEN
You can almost describe the garden as being two separate areas. Thwere's an initial area just over 41 feet (12.50m) long, which then runs on behind the end of the garage to another area roughly 36 feet (10.97m) wide max by 32 feet (9.75m) deep, currently occupied by three very established Apple trees.
We thought the rear area would make a super spot for a garden cabin, children's play area or a mini football pitch!
Of interesting note, the vendor gets on very well with the next-door neighbour to the right who has recently added a single story extension. The neighbour is also thinking of taking down their garage to open up the garden more - something that the vendor here has also thought about.
With both garages down, this will certainly let in even more light to the bottom end of the garden as well as increasing the garden size substantially. Food for thought
