Description

This detached four-bedroom residence, situated in the serene village of Stanford Rivers, presents a remarkable opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant renovation potential. The home is set behind a secure gated driveway, providing ample off-road parking and an inviting entrance. With no onward chain, this property enables immediate renovations or updates to be undertaken. The expansive ground floor is equipped with a modern kitchen featuring integrated appliances and a central island, which can be easily reconfigured or enhanced to suit contemporary tastes. Large patio doors connect the kitchen to the spacious garden, providing a seamless flow between indoor and outdoor living spaces that could be further developed for entertaining. Two additional reception rooms offer versatile usage options; whether as dining spaces, home offices, or playrooms, these areas are ripe for personalized touch-ups. A downstairs shower room adds convenience and could be upgraded for improved accessibility or style. Upstairs, the primary suite benefits from an en suite bathroom and dressing area that may require modernizing, while the remaining bedrooms are adequately sized and serviced by a family bathroom that presents an excellent opportunity for refreshment. The generous rear garden features various outdoor amenities including a large patio area and mature landscaping. Notably, there is also an adaptable outbuilding that consists of three rooms and a WC—ideal for conversion into additional living space such as an office or gym upon obtaining necessary consents. With its picturesque surroundings, proximity to local amenities in Ongar and Brentwood, and access to major transport routes like the M25 and M11, this property not only offers comfortable living but also significant potential for value enhancement through strategic renovations.
