The property itself is a spacious 3/4 bedroom semi detached chalet style property with 2/3 bedrooms on the first floor and a 4th bedroom downstairs.
Whilst this property is in need of some TLC and some modernisation, it is in the main just cosmetic, and this is reflected in the price.
With off street parking for 3/4 cars, and an integral garage, this lovely family property is just 5 min walk to Roydon Station with direct links to London Liverpool St, Harlow, Stansted Airport, or Cambridge.
Downstairs there is a large lounge with a large window overlooking the front of the property. It has laminate flooring and is a decent size, coming in at just under 17sqm!
Double French doors lead to the dining area. Again it has laminate flooring and double doors that lead to the good size rear garden. There is a door that leads to the 'Galley' style kitchen which really needs an update.
On the ground floor is another room that is used as a 4th bedroom. It is a decent size double and has lovely views of the rear garden.
The garden is laid mainly to lawn and there are established shrubs and trees.
The current owner openly admits to not being a gardener, and whilst she has kept it neat and tidy, there is not doubt that it is a 'blank canvas' for keen gardeners to turn it into something splendid! There is a lovely patio area and there is a large garden shed.
Upstairs there are 2/3 bedrooms and the family bathroom.
The largest bedroom is to the rear of the property with lovey views overlooking the rear garden. Off this bedroom, and only accessable from this bedroom is the 4th bedroom which could also be used as a walk in wardrobe, although if you have a baby or small toddler, it would make a perfect nursery!
To the front of the property is Bedroom 2. This is another double bedroom and has velux window which gives lots of natural light.
The family bathroom also needs an update. It benefits from a large velux window so privacy is guaranteed!
