Description

Nestled in the charming village of Mountnessing, this semi-detached house offers a well-maintained living space with delightful views over open fields. The property features two bedrooms, each equipped with fitted storage, and a fully tiled family bathroom. The ground floor boasts an open-plan layout that combines a spacious living room and kitchen, seamlessly connecting to the rear garden. A separate utility room adds practicality, providing ample space for laundry appliances and additional storage. The property benefits from off-road parking on its own driveway, along with a garage located in a block at the end of the terrace. Upon entering, you are greeted by a bright hallway adorned with attractive herringbone flooring and built-in storage units. The living room and kitchen area is designed to be both functional and inviting, featuring stylish 'Shaker' style wall and base units, a central island with integrated wine chiller, and modern appliances including an oven and microwave. Natural light floods the space through French doors leading to the garden and a large lantern skylight.

Externally, the garden is easy to maintain, featuring a paved patio that transitions into an artificial lawn. There is potential for extension, subject to planning consent. The front of the property showcases a block-paved driveway accommodating two vehicles, enhancing its appeal for families or investors alike, given its proximity to Ingatestone train station for easy access to London.

Confidence: LOW

This semi-detached house in the village of Mountnessing offers a well-maintained living space with modern features, making it a strong candidate for renovation enthusiasts. The standout element is the excellent kitchen, featuring stylish 'Shaker' style units and a central island that enhances the open-plan layout. The bright living area, complete with natural light from the lantern skylight and French doors leading to the garden, creates a welcoming atmosphere. With good-sized bedrooms and a fully tiled family bathroom, this property is ready for a personal touch.

At £450,000, the guide price is slightly above the local average at £507/sqf, but it still presents a decent opportunity given the overall condition and potential for minor updates. The property benefits from a low-risk profile, and while the economics score is limited due to missing renovation estimates, the light renovation scale allows for manageable improvements. Overall, this home could be a perfect fit for first-time buyers or investors looking to capitalize on its appealing features.
