Nestled along a quiet stretch of Doddinghurst Road, this three-bedroom detached residence presents a unique opportunity for renovation in a scenic semi-rural setting. Set on approximately a quarter-acre plot, the property boasts privacy and picturesque views, with open fields to the front and serene woodlands at the rear. The home is conveniently located just a short drive from Shenfield and Brentwood, providing access to high street shopping, dining options, and commuter train services into London. Nearby Doddinghurst Village offers essential amenities including local schools and shops.
Accessed through electric security gates, the property features a spacious driveway and includes several outbuildings such as a sizable oak barn/workshop equipped with electric roller shutters, along with a double-length garage—ideal for storage or creative workspace.
The entrance greets you with an ivy-clad canopy leading into a hallway that showcases a bespoke wrought iron staircase. The interior comprises two light-filled reception rooms adorned with deep windowsills; the main living area benefits from under-stairs storage, while the secondary room currently serves as a lounge/dining area featuring an eye-catching brick Inglenook fireplace with a wood-burning stove, complemented by French doors that open onto the rear garden—making it perfect for entertaining.
The kitchen is fitted with limed oak cabinetry and quarry-tiled flooring that invites possibilities for modernization. There's also an adjoining utility room with appliance provisions and another WC offering direct access to the garden—this layout provides potential for reconfiguration to create additional living spaces such as an office or playroom on the ground level.
Upstairs, you'll find three generous double bedrooms; two boast built-in wardrobes, and the rear bedroom lends itself well to conversion into a dressing room. The family bathroom is elegantly finished with Limestone and Maron marble tiling, featuring both an oval bath and separate walk-in shower enclosure.
The landscaped rear garden stands out for its complete privacy featuring lush lawns and mature trees alongside designated relaxing spots like a covered Jacuzzi area. The impressive oak barn/workshop adds further utility along with other outbuildings attached to the garage—all benefiting from electric roller shutters.
Additional safety features include ample off-road parking, remote-controlled gates, and an integrated CCTV system. With excellent potential for creating a self-contained annexe (subject to planning permission), either by refurbishing existing structures or constructing anew within the expansive grounds, this property presents endless possibilities for those looking to invest in space and charm in desirable Brentwood.
