A very rare opportunity to acquire a delightful four bedroom character semi-detached house, available on the market for the first time in over 50 years. Constructed by the well known local builder Jack Durston in the late 1930s, it is located in one of the most attractive and sought after roads in Old Shenfield. Offered to the market with no onward chain and significant potential, the property has the benefit of a large 90' south easterly rear garden and is a short and pleasant walk to both Brentwood School and Shenfield mainline railway station and Crossrail terminus, with fast links to The City, Central London, and beyond to Heathrow Airport.

A partially glazed front door with windows to either side opens to the bright reception hall. The sitting room is a lovely, spacious, well proportioned and bright room drawing maximum light from a wide bay window to the front elevation with a further large window to one side. A central focal point is a feature red brick fireplace that incorporates a gas coal effect fire, with wooden mantel and tiled hearth. The dining room is a very sizeable room from which a pair of sliding double glazed patio doors opens to the south easterly rear garden garden terrace. Like the sitting room, the large dining room also has an abundance of character, with features such as a picture rail and another most attractive red brick fireplace that incorporates a gas fire, with wooden mantel and tiled hearth.

The kitchen comprises of a range of white shaker style units that include base cupboards, drawers and matching wall cabinets along three walls. A matching roll edged worktop incorporates a a single drainer sink unit with mixer tap and tiled splashbacks.  Integrated gas cooker with a concealed extractor unit over and oven below. Kitchen windows face two elevations, with views over the extensive and beautiful mature rear garden. A door leads outside for side access. Rather conveniently, there is a ground floor cloakroom.

On the first floor level there are three very well proportioned bedrooms. The primary is situated at the front of the house and has been fitted with extensive storage around the bed recess, with matching bedside cabinets and floor to ceiling wardrobes with mirrored doors that provide an abundance of clothes storage. A matching dressing table is beneath the window with drawers fitted to either side and these continue along the adjacent wall. All four bedrooms within this family home can comfortably sleep two. The family bathroom has been well appointed with a four piece suite that comprises a panel enclosed bath with shower attachment, pedestal wash hand basin, close coupled W.C and tiled shower enclosure. An obscure glazed window faces the side and a most distinctive circular opaque window can be found above the bath, facing the front elevation.

The house has previously been enlarged and provides four bedrooms. A large bedroom can be found on the second floor level of the property. This has been fitted with wardrobes, drawers and a dressing table, beneath a window that offers elevated views of the spacious rear garden, and Old Shenfield, beyond.

The house benefits from three spacious loft spaces, one on the first floor and two on the second.

The rear garden is a particularly attractive feature. It has a south easterly elevation, so is in sunshine throughout much of the day. It measures approximately 90' in depth, with a width of around 33'. The garden is screened across the far end by established Oak trees and the rear of the house has a paved patio terrace with steps leading down to the lawn. A substantial shed offers useful garden storage. The front garden is largely laid to lawn with spring bulbs, roses and is retained by a low level wall from the pavement. A brick paviour driveway which can conveniently take four or five cars leads to the garage.
