House For Sale £440,000
Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac within Great Burstead, a sought after residential area of Billericay, this extended 3 Bedroom Semi-detached Bungalow underwent a comprehensive program of refurbishment prior to the current Vendors purchasing it three years ago.
A rear extension was completed in 2016 and added significant internal space, plus Planning Permission was granted (the work never done in the end) to add another 2 Bedrooms and a Bathroom in the Loft space - a further option if desired.
The present accommodation is plenty big enough as it is, and comprises a long Hall, Lounge, full width extension across the back housing the Dining Area at one end and additional kitchen units at the other, a White Gloss fitted Kitchen with built-in appliances, the three bedrooms (2 doubles and a single) and the Bathroom (fitted out as a stylish Shower Room).
Further features include wood laminate flooring in the Hall and Kitchen, a feature Fireplace in the Lounge, the Central Heating was renewed during the refurb (Boiler in the Loft), and we noticed a new metal electrical consumer unit too, plus there's a big shed in the Garden with power and lighting as well. The Vendor also informs us that Virgin cable runs to the bungalow too.
The Courtyard style Garden offers low maintenance and is a real Sun Trap as it is South-West facing, and being set well back from the road gives the property a large front too, which has been block paved and so provides parking for several vehicles.
The property is also conveniently situated, with open Countryside just around the corner, local shops including a handy Tesco Express as easy 10-minute stroll and the popular Kings Head Pub/Restaurant a 2-3 minute walk.
Bus Stops a-plenty in the area, including one around the corner, take you to the nearby towns as well as the High Street (1.4 mile) and the Mainline Station (1.8 mile)
Plus, if education is a high priority, buyers may like to know the outstanding St Peters Roman Catholic School is just a 3-4 minute walk and the local South Green Infant & Junior School only a little further at 0.6 mile
The Accommodation comprises:
Combining style with security, the black on the outside, white on the inside woodgrain effect composite front door leads through to:
Hall
A nice winding Hall with attractive wood laminate flooring that extends into the kitchen and bathroom. Looking up, we see a smooth plastered ceiling finished with coving, as found throughout this well decorated bungalow
lounge 14ft x 13ft 1'' (4.25m x 4m)
Benefiting from an increased feeling of spaciousness, courtesy of Its open plan design with the full width extension across the back.
The focal point is the Fireplace. This housed a woodburning stove when the current Vendors first moved in, but they didn't use it and changed it to a more user-friendly-for-them modern Electric Fire. Presumably the Chimney may well be lined so swapping back would be easy too.
The very soft underfoot light brown carpet runs through the 10ft wide opening into the:
Dining area 17ft x 7ft 3' (5.2m x 2.2m)
Nearly the full width of the property and therefore enjoying a dual role. The area beyond the lounge lending itself as the Dining Area, the area beyond the Kitchen fitted with matching kitchen units incorporating the integrated fridge/freezer and a useful Breakfast Bar with cupboards below - almost like having your own Home Party Bar!
A large skylight window, set of UPVC double doors with accompanying side light windows and the part glazed back door bathe this this area in light, which sweeps on into the Lounge and its adjacent kitchen.
Carpet in the Dining area and the wood laminate around the kitchen units zone the two separate areas.
Kitchen 10ft 4' x 8ft 1' (3.2m x 2.5m)
The timeless combination of black and white. High gloss white units with black Granite effect worktops create a bright modern looks and shiny black 'Metro' splashback tiling adds a further dash of glamour too.
Built-in and integrated appliances comprise a sleek black Ceramic Hob below a stainless steel Chimney style Extractor Hood above, built-in large capacity Double Oven/Grill with SimplySteam™ technology for easy cleaning, integrated Dishwasher, and a space for the washing machine.
Bedroom one 12ft 4' x 9ft 9; (3.8m x 3m)
Decorated in on-trend grey, this fine size double bedroom has fitted blinds to the front facing bay window.
Bedroom two 10ft x 9ft 10' (3.1m x 3m)
Another front facing double bedroom, this one with classic cream and white decor.
Bedroom three 9ft x 8ft max (2.8m x 2.4m)
This versatile room is presently being used as a useful store/laundry room but clearly offers a multitude of uses. We think it would make the perfect home office too.
Bathroom 7ft 8' x 5ft (2.35m x 1.5m)
Fitted out as a very stylish Shower Room, complete with a White Gloss back-to-wall WC unit and matching White Gloss Vanity unit, along with a corner shower featuring a Rain showerhead and with a separate handset too.
Attractive textured cream wall tiles, feature shower panels, wood effect flooring, white gloss storage shelving and a cupboard and a tall chrome towel radiator completes the look and the big side facing window brings in plenty of natural light.
Exterior - front
Block paved, providing parking for several cars and with a slate shingle strip down to the side with various different plants providing an attractive kerbside appeal.
Exterior - rear garden
Landscaped with minimal maintenance in mind, this Courtyard style garden has Indian sandstone paving with sleepers retaining a rear flowerbed. The boundaries enclosed by close board fencing.
The large green shed provides a great additional storage facility.
The Garden extends to the side of the extension giving an even more private sitting area, with a lockable gate providing side access back round to the front.
Shed 9ft 9' x 6ft 8'
