Description

This four-bedroom detached house presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment, situated in a tranquil country lane just outside Doddinghurst Village. The property boasts potential for both extension and modernization, making it ideal for those looking to create a personalized family home or capitalize on its investment prospects. Conveniently located, the home is within easy reach of local amenities and approximately 4.5 miles from Brentwood Town Centre, which offers high street shopping and mainline train services into London. The property features ample parking options with an ‘in’ and ‘out’ driveway capable of accommodating several vehicles, along with two garages—one single and one double—providing additional storage or workshop space. Upon entering, you are greeted by a spacious hallway that provides access to the living room, kitchen, and a ground floor cloakroom. The living room is generously sized and leads to a separate dining area through an open plan layout. Sliding patio doors from the dining room allow natural light to flood in while providing direct access to the sizeable rear garden. The kitchen is equipped with white wall and base units, offering opportunities for updating appliances or reconfiguring the layout as desired. Adjacent to the kitchen is a utility room that includes extra storage space and plumbing for appliances. The first floor hosts four well-proportioned bedrooms, each large enough to accommodate freestanding or fitted wardrobes. One bedroom features an en-suite shower room, while another includes a wash hand basin for added convenience. A spacious family bathroom completes this level, presenting further potential for modernization. The exterior of the property highlights its charm with a mature garden that begins with an expansive patio area leading up to a lawn surrounded by established trees and shrubs—an ideal canvas for landscaping enthusiasts or families wanting outdoor space. Additionally, this property benefits from oil-fired heating; however, there is mains gas available nearby for easy conversion if desired. This aspect presents additional value as it allows future owners or investors to explore energy-efficient upgrades when renovating. This home is offered with no onward chain, allowing prospective buyers immediate access to begin planning renovations or improvements at their earliest convenience while taking advantage of this sought-after location.
