A three-storey period house in the sought-after Hartswood area of Brentwood.
Description
Located in a leafy suburb of Brentwood, the area is very popular with commuters and families. This deceptive period house has many features from its origins exemplified by high ceilings, large windows and a fine staircase. In contrast, more recent additions include a garage conversion, orangery and second floor loft conversion.
A central hallway separates the kitchen/dining room and living room. The kitchen/dining room occupies the entire left-hand side of the ground floor extending to about 30 ft, finished with a slate floor and featuring high ceilings. The room is well lit with windows to three aspects. The kitchen area is fitted with pine units topped with granite and includes a peninsular breakfast bar. French doors from the kitchen open directly out to a paved courtyard. The living room overlooks the front and features a cast iron period fireplace and a panelled wall with door through to the rear reception room, which overlooks the gardens. The reception room incorporates a glazed roof extension making for a bright and welcoming room. Adjacent, the attached garage has been converted into a large, fitted utility room with a WC and store behind.
The first floor has three en suite bedrooms and a family bathroom, with the principal suite, which spans the whole back of the house, incorporating a dressing room. On the second floor are two further bedrooms, both with eaves storage.
Outside
There is plenty of parking off-road and the front drive has in/out access and an EV charger. The rear garden has a sheltered brick terrace immediately behind the house, ideal for dining in the warmer months. The gardens are mature and include many shrubs and trees with a large area of lawn measuring some 28m (91 ft) and leading to an outdoor entertaining area at the bottom of the garden.
