This well-proportioned four-bedroom detached house on Traps Hill offers practical family living within walking distance of Loughton Central line, High Road shops and Epping Forest. The ground floor layout includes an 18ft lounge, 15ft family room and 15ft dining room with scope to create a larger open-plan kitchen/living area subject to the usual consents. The rear garden faces south and measures approximately 37ft, providing a sunny outdoor space for children and entertaining.
Upstairs provides an en-suite to the master and fitted wardrobes to all bedrooms, making storage and family routines straightforward. The driveway offers ample off-street parking and a 24ft garage adds useful storage or workspace. At around 1,788 sq ft and with freehold tenure and no chain, the property suits families who value space, strong local schools and fast transport links.
Practical considerations: the house has been with the same owners for 45 years, so some buyers may wish to update certain rooms or modernise to their own taste. Any structural changes to create fully open-plan living will require planning/consent. Council tax is described as quite expensive; viewings should factor ongoing running costs into budgets.
With low local crime, very good mobile and broadband connectivity, and a selection of well-rated nearby schools, this home combines commuter convenience with an established neighbourhood feel. It represents a comfortable family base with potential to adapt and improve over time.
