This well-proportioned four-bedroom semi-detached house sits in a desirable Shenfield Park location, a short walk from the mainline station and local Broadway. The property offers flexible family accommodation across three floors, with a generous open-plan kitchen/breakfast/family area that opens onto a long, south-westerly garden — excellent for afternoon and evening sun. The principal bedroom benefits from a loft conversion and an en-suite shower room, making the layout practical for modern family life.
Period features such as leaded-light bay windows, decorative cornices and two ornate fireplaces give the house character and charm while the extended family area with Velux windows provides bright, contemporary living space. Off-street parking for several vehicles and a sizeable rear garden (approximately 95' deep) add strong outdoor and practical appeal for families with children or pets. The property falls within the catchment for well-regarded local schools including St Mary’s.
Buyers should note the property dates from the 1930s–1940s with solid brick walls (assumed without cavity insulation) and double glazing fitted before 2002; upgrading insulation and windows could improve energy efficiency. Heating is mains gas with a boiler and radiators. Council tax is described as expensive, and while the house appears well maintained, there is scope for modernisation to kitchens, bathrooms or energy installations to suit personal tastes or to increase long-term value.
Overall, this home will suit growing families looking for space, school catchment and convenience to Shenfield station, or buyers seeking a characterful house with scope to update energy performance and interior finishes.
