Allens Road, Ramsden Heath, Billericay, CM11 1JA

With thoughtful extensions to both the front and rear, plus a great garage conversion, this superb 3/4 Bedroom Semi-Detached village home boasts a gorgeous South Facing landscaped Garden and offers exceptionally flexible family accommodation that truly grows with you.

The sociable open plan ground floor combines a large 'two-area' Lounge (originally the lounge/diner) with a feature Fireplace, a lovely L-shaped 'Shaker' style Kitchen/Diner with a Range Cooker, and a separate dual purpose Playroom - Office, which would equally serve as a fourth bedroom. A ground floor WC and extended Entrance Vestibule add further practicality.

Upstairs, three generously proportioned double bedrooms are served by a beautifully re-fitted four-piece family Bathroom, complete with both a full size Bath and a large Double Shower with a 'Rain' shower head, stylish on-trend black fitments and Calacatta white marble tiling.

Outside, the almost due south facing Rear Garden is a real sun trap. Professionally landscaped with a full width slate-look patio, a powder coated aluminium pergola with retractable canopy and built-in heater, raised planters, and a neat lawn bordered by establishing laurel hedging.

To the front, a large gravel driveway provides ample parking alongside a useful garage store.

Surrounded by countryside, the very popular village of Ramsden Heath is just 2.7 miles from Billericay High Street and its Mainline Railway Station (London Liverpool Street in 35 minutes).

With a regular bus service (including a separate free one for school children attending the Billericay Schools), two pubs, a primary school, nursery and local café all close to hand, this is a home that truly has it all.

EXTENDED LOUNGE 23ft x 12ft (7.01m x 3.66m)

A huge Lounge with the large front facing window maximising light and a feature Fireplace with a chunky modern wood surround and with a stylish new radiator adjacent.

Over 7ft wide, a large opening makes it open plan to what was originally the dining area, now a nice extension to the lounge, which of course could easily be separated off by bi-folding doors, etc.

Within this area is a useful full height built-in cupboard, a new radiator and a set of contemporary oak framed glazed doors swinging open to the dining area within the full width extension.



COMBINATION PLAYROOM/OFFICE 16ft 6" x 8ft (5.03m x 2.44m)

An exceptionally versatile extra reception room. Presently used as both a playroom and a home office (carpeting and vinyl zoning the two areas).

Due to its size, it could of course also be used as a large ground floor fourth bedroom, second sitting room, etc.

Integrated within the units is a dishwasher, two matching doors open to reveal spaces for a washing machine and tumble dryer, plus there is also space for a large American style fridge/freezer.

Being almost due south facing, the large set of double doors and rear facing window, together stream in lots of mood boosting sunshine!

Again being rear facing, this is a notably light and sunny room.



BEDROOM THREE 9ft 5" x 8ft 9" (2.87m x 2.67m)

A front facing bedroom, again with full height white gloss fitted wardrobes.

It is worth noting that a standard double bed would easily fit in this room.



RE-FITTED BATHROOM 9ft 3" max x 7ft 7" (2.82m x 2.31m)

Rather impressive.

Re-fitted just a few years ago to include both a full size Bath as well as a large Double Shower.

GARAGE STORE 8ft 9" x 8ft (2.7 m x 2.45 m)

Following the garage conversion and extension, the owners were keen to retain some purposeful storage. This area has the convenience of an up and over door, power and light, and is capable of housing bikes, tools, golf clubs and the usual other general must haves.



REAR GARDEN

Beautifully landscaped and an absolute sun trap.

A full width slate look Patio invites al-fresco dining and entertaining and features a modern powder coated aluminium garden pergola with a retractable canopy roof and a built in Patio Heater.

Raised gardens planters constructed from white acrylic rendered masonry surrounds a very neat lawn and a hedge of laurels in front of the fence is establishing nicely and adding a feeling of 'depth'.

There is also a gate to the side providing access out to the front.
