A handsome bay-fronted period house constructed in the 1920's, enjoying a prime location in the heart of Old Shenfield. This is a well proportioned family home of quality, and its original features and charm have been attentively retained and enhanced. Set back off the road on a good size plot with a broad frontage, and to the rear of the house is a very private and generous garden, drawing the afternoon and evening sun. The house comfortably caters for a larger family but there is also scope to significantly enlarge the living accommodation, without advancing the depth of the house into the rear garden. Conveniently situated and enjoying one of the most sought roads in Shenfield, in catchment and close to excellent schools and a short walk to the train station & Broadway shops.
