4 bedroom property for sale in Billericay

Enjoying a semi-rural location and a 90ft SOUTH Facing Garden, this large 4 Bedroom Detached House boasts expansive accommodation over two floors along with a huge, open Attic, the main area 462sq ft (excluding the eves), which begs to be converted.

Even without developing the Loft, the property already has a great feel of space throughout, with generous room dimensions incorporated within the abundant living space. This coupled with the large 10-Car In/Out Drive makes the perfect home for a large family and their visitors. Plus, we think there is the clear potential to extend the property even further, a double storey extension to the side by the garage, would be an obvious space.

Crossing the threshold into the large Porch, the internal door there opens on to the big, 21ft long Hall with its attractive wood flooring and a walk-through Cloakroom leading into a very generous size WC Room. The Hall runs into the 32ft x 12ft Kitchen/Dining/Family Room at the end, itself with elegant Cream Shaker style kitchen units topped with a blend of Granite and Oakwood worktops, a Rangemaster Range Cooker, twin sets of wide double doors opening out to the unoverlooked Garden, and a surprisingly big, adjoining Utility Room.

The handsomely proportioned reception rooms comprise a 22ft x 15ft Lounge, 15ft x 13ft Dining Room and a 10ft Study, with upstairs also continuing to deliver, there being four sumptuous bedrooms and a super-size Bathroom with a central Freestanding Bath as well as a separate walk-in Shower.

The 24ft Principle Bedroom has a very large Ensuite Shower Room of its own and one of the two big cupboards on the Landing opens to reveal the pull-down loft ladder leading up to the Jumbo size Loft, quite an eye opener.

There is full Gas Central Heating via radiators and the windows and doors are double glazed.

Outside, the original Garage has been converted into a Reflexology `Treatment Room`, complete with a separate WC Room.
