Description

There are houses where the garden is a nice addition and then there are homes where the outside space completely changes the way you feel about the property. With a swimming pool, a large garden and a spectacular outlook across open countryside, this cottage style semi detached home enjoys what has to be one of the finest views in Havering atte Bower. Add three bedrooms, two bathrooms, parking and Dame Tipping Primary School virtually on the doorstep, there is plenty here to make this a very memorable home!

The house itself has a warm, traditional feel, with the character of the exterior continuing inside through features such as the stripped wooden flooring.

At the heart of the ground floor is the living and dining space. Measuring more than 22 feet in length, it gives you plenty of room for sofas at one end and a dining table at the other. Windows to the front and doors towards the rear bring natural light in from both directions, while the open connection between the two areas makes this a sociable part of the house for everyday family life.

Alongside the dining area is the kitchen. The style is more traditional than contemporary, but it remains perfectly functional with plenty of cupboard storage and worktop space. Doors at the rear also take you directly outside, which works particularly well during the warmer months when meals, barbecues and family gatherings naturally move into the garden.

The third bedroom sits on the ground floor and is quite different from a conventional bedroom. It is a long, narrow room which was originally created for an elderly family member who found the stairs difficult. Importantly, it also has its own shower room. For somebody with an older parent living with them, a family member who needs their own space, or simply somebody who would benefit from having a bedroom and shower room on the ground floor, it could work extremely well. Buyers looking specifically for three conventional bedrooms may find the layout less suited to their needs, but for the right household this part of the home could be a real advantage.

Upstairs are two double bedrooms, both comfortably fitting double beds. The rear bedroom has perhaps the biggest treat, with the elevated position giving you a wonderful view across the surrounding countryside. The second bedroom sits at the front and includes built in storage.

The family bathroom is also on this floor and gives you both a bath and separate shower cubicle, so together with the shower room downstairs there are two bathrooms within the house.

Then there is the garden. This is where the property becomes something quite different!

Immediately behind the house is a large patio with space for outdoor dining, barbecues, sun loungers and entertaining. From here the garden continues onto a lawn, with established planting and storage sheds, before reaching the swimming pool at the far end.

The pool has been separated from the main garden by fencing, an important consideration for families with younger children, and there is a pump house alongside it. The surrounding area gives you plenty of space to sit beside the water, while the open outlook beyond creates a backdrop that is difficult to replicate.

On a summer afternoon, with the pool in front of you and uninterrupted countryside stretching into the distance, this is a garden that feels a long way removed from the usual Romford home. Children are likely to love it, but equally it is somewhere adults can entertain friends, spend a weekend outside or simply enjoy the view.

There is parking at the front of the property, while the location combines the village feel of Havering atte Bower with access back into Romford. Dame Tipping Church of England Primary School is virtually on the doorstep, while Romford town centre and rail station are around three miles away.

This will not be the right house for every three bedroom buyer, and that is part of its individuality. But if you love the character of a cottage style home and your priorities include outdoor space, a swimming pool and an exceptional countryside outlook, the garden here could make everything else fall into place.
