Welcome to Grimston Road, a deceivingly spacious family home occupying a discreet corner plot on a quiet residential street close to Northlands Park.

The pleasant exterior masks the sheer size and spaciousness of the interior, which has been thoughtfully extended and decorated by the current owners. A clean, modern decorative palate gives scope for you to insert your own personal style or enhance to suit your own tastes.

A welcoming entrance vestibule leads to the main hallway, both offering the first of many built-in storage solutions. Upon entering the main house, an impressive, open-plan kitchen/breakfast/dining/family room awaits you, providing a light-filled airy space which features a modern country style shaker kitchen with a breakfast bar. Beyond is a separate lobby which leads to a downstairs WC, utility/laundry room and a useful built-in storage unit.
The clever design of the drawing room beyond, not only ensures that natural light pours into the space from both the front and rear of the property (including from the skylight above), but also creates a harmonious balance of privacy with a flowing feel between the two spaces.

A separate space adjacent to the drawing room, operating currently as a storage room, can be used a study, or can be converted, along with the laundry room/WC, to a separate dwelling/annexe with a self-contained front entrance and can either be sold off at a profit or rented out. *Please enquire further at your viewing.

Triple aspect bifold doors lead out onto the secluded rear garden, which faces in the direction of the setting sun during the summer months. A useful outbuilding, supplied by electricity, currently used as a beauty business, offers the new owners the chance to earn an annual yield by renting it out, operate a business home from, or put to use as a variety of other options, including a children’s playhouse.

Upstairs, a quirky galleried landing leads to two double bedrooms and a family bathroom, whilst a further staircase takes you up into the converted attic where two further spacious bedrooms can be found, along with a useful space which can be used for storage, a built-in dressing room or a shower room, as it benefits from plumbing.

Externally, there is off-street parking for two cars, along with further residents parking on the road. Two pubs are both within walking distance and have regular live music, quiz nights and themed evenings, as well as serving mouth watering pub classics and all-day snacks. The Eyna Turkish Restaurant is a short walk away and provides an exquisite Turkish menu which diners can enjoy in plush surroundings, whilst further local dining extends to The Veil Restaurant where guests’ palettes can be satiated by traditional African cuisine.
Nearby Basildon and Pitsea offer a further and more extensive range of dining, leisure and retail facilities, easily reached by car and bus.

The property is ideally located for all transport links, being with easy reach of the A13, A127 and A13, providing fast access to Chelmsford, Southend and London. Both Pitsea and Basildon train stations are 1.6 and 1.9 miles away respectively.

Education is well catered for with The Basildon Upper and Lower Academy being within walking distance, as well as Whitmore Nursery and Junior School.
