Detached family home occupying a discreet turning in the heart of Ingatestone.
Description
Nestled in the heart of Ingatestone village, this detached five bedroom family home holds a discreet position within this private turning comprising just four properties, enjoying a delightful west-facing garden.
Originally constructed in 1993, 2 Rectory Close spans approximately 2,100 sq ft, providing space for a comfortable family living and an integral double garage. The property could benefit from some internal updating and is being sold with a completed upward chain.
The property is approached from the front into an entrance hall with stairs leading to the first floor. From here, there is access to the dining room, sitting room, study, cloakroom and kitchen/breakfast room. The dining room is located to the front of the house and is an attractive room with a box bay window providing a large amount of natural light. The kitchen/breakfast room is positioned to the rear of the property enjoying views and access to the garden. The kitchen has been fitted with a collection of traditional units with worksurfaces and space for appliances. To the rear of the room is a utility room providing side external access. The sitting room is a well-proportioned room with sliding doors opening to the garden and an open, cast-iron fireplace.
To the first floor are five bedrooms and a family bathroom accessed off a central landing. Two of the bedrooms provide en suite facilities.
Outside
The property is approached from the front over a wide driveway leading to an integral double garage which has a Ford wall-mounted EV charging box. There is side gated access leading to the rear garden which provides a paved patio with the remainder laid to lawn, interspersed with a selection of established flowers and shrubs. A Gabriel Ash greenhouse with power, lighting and water is nestled in the corner.
Services: All mains services connected.
Location
Ingatestone High Street: 100 yards; Ingatestone railway station: 0.5 miles; A12: 1.1 mile; Shenfield: 4 miles (Crossrail service). All distances approximate.
2 Rectory Close occupies private cul-de-sac at the heart of Ingatestone within walking distance of village amenities and the railway station. The village provides a good selection of shops including two supermarkets, restaurants, a delicatessen and a range of traditional pubs.
