"A very substantial six bedroom, six bathroom, contemporary style home that extends to 3,642 square feet of well planned family accommodation. Situated in a very discreet, westerly plot of approximately a quarter acre, this property has been extensively remodelled by the current owner and is ideally located; just 0.3 mile from Shenfield mainline railway station and Crossrail terminus.

Upon entry, a double height reception hall provides an immediate first impression of space. A solid oak suspended staircase with glass balustrade ascends to the first floor galleried landing. Light is drawn from a frosted glazed window to the front elevation, in addition to large skylight windows.

Steps descend to a very large and open plan living area. This entire space is situated at the rear of the property and is illuminated by windows and doors that provide attractive views and open to the well screened westerly rear garden. This space connects seamlessly to the dining room and these areas combined measure over 30 in width. A focal point of the living area is a contemporary style remote controlled gas fire. An attractive solid oak flooring runs throughout. It is worth noting that the property has the benefit of underfloor heating on both the ground and first floor levels. An MVHR system is installed to improve the efficiency and reduce energy consumption and running cost of the house.

The kitchen breakfast room is partially divided from the open plan living area by a media wall. It has been comprehensively fitted with an attractive range of light gloss units that comprise base cupboards, drawers and matching wall cabinets along two walls. A long and contrasting black granite worktop incorporates a stainless steel sink unit with hotwater mixer tap and ribbed granite drainer, beneath a window that is fitted to the side elevation. A peninsula provides additional storage below a complementing black granite worktop that accommodates a gas hob with a contemporary style stainless steel extractor unit above. Integrated appliances to remain include a ZUG ovens, grill and steam . Integrated Miele dishwasher, Miele refrigerator and a AEG freezer. A contemporary style tiled floor extends throughout and the kitchen breakfast room is sufficiently large to accommodate an informal dining table and chairs. Open corner bi folding doors provide a seamless connection between the kitchen breakfast room and the well tended and westerly facing surrounding garden. A skylight window above the breakfast table and chairs floods this space with additional light. A pair of double doors open to a most useful pantry which offers additional storage capacity.

A utility room provides an excellent companion to the kitchen breakfast room with space and plumbing for a washing machine and tumble dryer. It has an additional sink unit plus a door that leads outside.

A step ascends to the sitting room which is very well proportioned and has been fitted with a large box window and a glazed door that opens to a very private south easterly terrace. A perfect place to sit for a morning coffee. Though this may be described as the formal sitting room, given the open plan layout, we feel the accommodation is very versatile and therefore open to individual interpretation.

With six double bedrooms that are serviced by six well appointed bath shower rooms, this property will be perfect for any large or multi generational family unit. Our clients use one of the bedrooms as a gym and another as a home office. The three bedrooms on the first floor level overlook the rear garden through doors with Juliette style balconies. In fact, the primary suite has 3 doors that offer panoramic views of the very well screened gardens below. This suite incorporates extensive clothes storage and a very large and luxuriously fitted en suite bathroom that comprises a free standing bath, wide walk in wet room style shower, back to wall WC and twin vanity wash hand basins.

As previously mentioned, the house is discreetly located in a quiet position on this exclusive residential estate, yet just 0.3 mile from Shenfield mainline railway station and Crossrail terminus. The plot is concealed and measures 1 4 acre. The elevation is due west, so the rear garden is in sunshine throughout virtually the entire day. The rear garden has a maximum depth of 70 and a width of 78 along the rear boundary. Across the rear of the property is a contemporary styled decked area. This also encompasses a sheltered area, with outside lighting and speakers, making a perfect environment for outside entertaining in summer months. This is retained by low level hedging and steps descend to a well tended lawn, bordered on all three boundaries by a mature array of shrubs, plants and trees, many of which are evergreen, to provide a maximum degree of privacy and seclusion all year round.

To the front of the property a brick paviour driveway provides spacious off street parking and leads to the double garage. The double garage is accessed via a remote controlled electronically operated door and it also has useful storage space in the rafters above. Steps descend to an easterly terrace adjacent to the sitting room, which given the very private situation of this property, is entirely outside of public view.
