A delightful detached bungalow in quiet, leafy country lane setting with grounds of 2.19 acres (stls) What We say at The Zoe Napier Group What a hidden gem, located along a delightful country lane, this super bungalow offers lots of scope to extend (stp) and with the surrounding countryside providing some superb dog walks and hacking, it genuinely offers a wonderful location to raise a family who enjoy living the country life.   What the Owners Say I have lived here for over forty years and its  been fantastic to live in such tranquil surroundings and yet be within such easy reach of London. Unfortunately, I am struggling to maintain the grounds now, so I have decided to move in with my son, for ease so this enables the incoming buyers the property for sale with no onward chain. History & Background It is believed that the property was originally a stabling facility that was subsequently converted into a residential dwelling in 2009. The accommodation is spacious and versatile and could be configured in a number of different ways to accommodate the incoming purchaser. Currently utilised as one bedroom, however with the addition of a stud wall in the generous sitting room the property could quite easily be converted into three double bedrooms (if required) with the minimum of fuss. The grounds are a particular feature, with the immediate garden being incredibly secluded and beautifully landscaped with the icing on the cake being…..facing South it provides the perfect retreat to bask in the sun all day and enjoy those Summer barbecues! With the installation of a stabling facility (stp), the adjoining 2 acres (stls) represents a fabulous opportunity to indulge in equestrian pursuits in a wonderful location. Setting & Location The property is situated along Bennetts Avenue, a quant, quiet country track within a highly sought-after location in the semi-rural hamlet of Rettendon Common, located between East and South Hanningfield, approximately 7 miles south from the City of Chelmsford with the main towns of Wickford, Billericay and Rayleigh also being between 4.5 and 6.5 miles from the property. Rettendon Common is delightful, largely surrounded by countryside with some excellent rural walks which can lead to the Windmill pub in South Hanningfield, where there is also the wonderful Hanningfield Reservoir and nature reserve, largely open to the public where a sunset café overlooks the water. Wickford train station (Liverpool Street 37 minutes) - 3.9 miles * Battlesbridge train station -3.1 miles * South Woodham Ferrers train station - 5.7 miles * London Stansted Airport - 26 miles The front door leads directly into a spacious hallway, an excellent space for coats, hats and boots and incorporates a large storage/services cupboard. Residing the East wing of the property is a generous sitting/ dining room, a bright and airy, dual aspect room, with double doors extending onto the expansive sun terrace and dependant on the incoming buyers requirements, could quite easily be converted into a further two double bedrooms. The main bedroom is situated central within the property, a double room with views over the front garden and is serviced by a recently fitted family bathroom and separate WC. There is a further sitting room situated in the West elevation, that flows delightfully into the adjoining kitchen/ breakfast room, fitted with a range of base and eye level units with complementary workspace over. The property enjoys two parking facilities, the first accessible via elongated double wooden gates, with space for a small vehicle, whilst a further driveway is located slightly further along the lane and is accessible via  five bar wooden gate that ultimately provides access to the paddock. The immediate rear grounds are wonderfully secluded, face South and have been beautifully landscaped to an excellent standard, incorporating a plethora of mature trees, roses and mature shrubs with an expansive sun terrace, that provides the perfect environment for al fresco dining! Situated adjacent is the 2 acres (stls), superbly screened via a range of mature trees and hedging and with the addition of stabling and potentially a manege (stls) offers an excellent space for equestrian pursuits.
