Broomstick Hall Road, Waltham Abbey, Essex, EN9

A superb five bedroom detached house with a double garage and scope for further extension/re-development (subject to planning permission)



Description

The house was originally a bungalow built in 1932, as part of a small holding which has been extended over the years by the current owners who purchased the property in 1987.
The plot itself is unique and may have potential for re-development in several ways, subject to planning permission.

Internally you're greeted by a porch leading onto a spacious hallway with all rooms leading off it. The kitchen sits to the front of the house and contains a dining area.
There is a downstairs wc, a study and utility room. At the back of the house is the large reception room with patio doors leading on to the garden.

Upstairs there are five bedrooms (four of which are doubles) and two bathrooms, both with power showers. Three of the bedrooms are dual aspect with the principal bedroom further benefitting from a walk in wardrobe. The loft is well insulted and can be accessed via a hatch on the landing.

Externally there is a two storey double garage complete with power and an electric roller shutter offering plenty of storage space with the option to convert to a work from home area or annexe (subject to planning permission.) There is also a separate garage which is used as a workshop with power and lighting and fitted bench plus a further garden tool shed.

The garden contains a spacious patio area with the remainder laid to lawn surrounded by mature shrubs and trees. To the rear is an additional piece of land currently utilised as a vegetable patch.
