Durban Lane, Basildon SS15

A unique character four bedroom home situated within the sought after conservation area of Noak Bridge. Splendid kitchen family room, ensuite, separate utility room together with parking to the front and with a double garage which is currently used as a games room incorporating a bar area with pumps and barrel system.

Chosen for its character, space and location, this is evident from all that you see. Situated in the heart of Noak Bridge, a stone's throw from one of the local duck ponds, with many footpaths meandering about the leafy streets. You are greeted by a few steps taking you through the front door into the L-shaped spacious entrance hall.

The beamed ceilings presented here, continue throughout the ground floor initiating the character that this property exudes. The lounge located to the side of the property offers a brick built fireplace and cosy log burning stove. Dual aspect windows, which incidentally you find in many rooms of this home, throw plenty of light in here, together with a bay with windows and a door leading to lawned area of the garden.

The hallway draws you round to a separate ground floor cloakroom and utility room, both with quirky character and the half glazed back door lures you out here onto a paved, walled courtyard idea for entertaining, with a covered area to the rear of the garage perfect for log storage and barbeque area.

The hub of this home is most definitely the kitchen/family room. This space centres around yet another fireplace with log burning stove, boasting a refitted kitchen with integrated appliances to one side and family dining and lounge space to the other. Both areas offering dual aspect windows so you can watch the world go by.

The stairs lead up and around to the first floor where the character continues, a low level window provides a glimpse over the courtyard to the rear and is at the centre of the two wings of this house. The main bedroom is to one side with built in wardrobe storage and contemporary ensuite shower room and to the other three further double bedrooms and family bathroom.

As you approach Barley Cottage in Durban Lane a gravel drive leading to the carport to the front provides parking and double gates take you through to the courtyard to the rear. The road meanders round past the front entrance then continues to the rear of the property where there is an additional gate leading to the brick built double garage to the rear which is currently a fully equipped games room with its own bar and pumps.
