4 bedroom detached house for sale

A most attractive four bedroom detached family house with the benefit of a private southerly rear garden, ideally situated within walking distance of Shenfield mainline railway station and good local schools. The property is located in a prominent position, within this tree lined road, in the heart of the desirable Hutton Poets development.

A solid wooden front door with decorative obscure double glazed leaded light inserts opens to the entrance hall. An attractive entrance from which a spindled balustrade staircase rise to the first floor landing. Leading off the entrance hall is a ground floor cloakroom.

The kitchen/dining area is situated at the rear of the property and has been comprehensively fitted with a fine quality range of light cream coloured Shaker style units that comprise base cupboards, drawers and matching wall cabinets along three walls. There is space for a range cooker with a stainless steel extractor unit fitted above with a feature coloured splashback. An oak work surface incorporates a porcelain sink unit fitted beneath the window that overlooks the very private garden to the rear of the house. The kitchen is open to the dining area, from which a pair of double glazed French doors lead to a sheltered area of the rear garden terrace. The kitchen is beautifully illuminated by windows fitted to two side elevations.

Adjacent to the kitchen is a large utility area with space for a free standing fridge/freezer and domestic appliances. This makes a very useful companion to the kitchen/dining room and a door connects the utility area to a storage room. This was formerly part of the garage and converted when the kitchen/breakfast room was extended and retains the electric rollover garage door.

The sitting room is bright and spacious with a focal point of a decorative cast iron fire surround that incorporates a gas coal effect fire with a black granite hearth. A wide window faces the front elevation and a door leads to the southerly rear garden terrace.

On the first floor there are four well proportioned bedrooms. The primary bedroom suite has been fitted with a range of wardrobes that extend the width of an entire wall offering plentiful clothes storage space. Oak effect beams add to the character of this room and a door opens to an en-suite shower room. This has been tastefully appointed with a wide tiled shower enclosure, close coupled WC and pedestal wash hand basin with mixer tap. The walls are tiled to full ceiling height with a contrasting black and white tiled border.

The remaining three bedrooms are all situated at the rear of the property and these are serviced by a well appointed family bathroom, that incorporates a panel enclosed bath with a mixer tap and hand held shower attachment, close coupled W.C and a wall mounted wash hand basin with mixer tap.

Externally the rear garden is a particularly attractive feature. As previously mentioned, it has a southerly elevation, so is in sunshine throughout the entire day. The rear garden has a maximum depth of 27' and a width of approximately 30' (as measured across the rear of the house). The garden is screened across the rear boundary by mature hedgerow with views of a very fine and ancient oak tree beyond. Across the rear of the property is a paved terrace, part of which is sheltered, with the remainder of the garden being laid to lawn. The front garden comprises a wide shingled driveway and this is partially retained by a low level brick wall with mature shrubs providing screening from the road. A wooden gate leads to the rear garden.
