Extended five-bedroom house near Shenfield station with large garden and annexe accommodation.
Approx. 0.25 acre plot with secluded south-facing garden
Set back in a quiet cul-de-sac on approx. 0.25 acre, this extended five-bedroom detached house offers more than 4,000 sqft of family living. The ground floor provides annexe-style accommodation and a large open-plan kitchen/family room that opens onto a secluded, south-facing garden — excellent for children and outdoor entertaining. Practical features include solar hot water and an electric car charger, plus a detached garage and a sizeable private driveway.
Four double bedrooms upstairs (two with ensuites) and a further bedroom at ground-floor level give flexible sleeping arrangements and good scope for multi-generational living or home working. The property is only 0.8 miles from Shenfield mainline station and lies within catchments for several well-regarded schools, making daily commutes and school runs straightforward for families.
Important practical points are stated clearly: the house was constructed in 1930–1949 so some period maintenance should be expected, council tax is expensive, and local crime levels are above average. The property is chain free and has double glazing installed post-2002, gas central heating with underfloor heating, and filled cavity walls, which help with comfort and running costs.
This will suit a buyer seeking substantial family space with garden privacy and good transport links who accepts the responsibilities of an older, characterful house. The annexe-style downstairs layout and generous plot also appeal to buyers wanting flexible living or potential to adapt spaces further.
