The houses and bungalows built on the Estate of Chalkwell Hall in the 1930s are some of the most coveted in the area. All are built to be ‘modern and commodious’ in slightly different designs, along attractive tree-lined roads. This road is one of the most desirable. The location is quiet but incredibly convenient. This attractive property provides comfortable and flexible accommodation suitable for a couple needing space for entertaining, a family, or for multi-generational living generating income. It is a warm, comfortable, happy, and much-loved home. The Front Entrance to the side of the building leads to an Inner Porch and a generous, welcoming Hallway with high ceilings and wooden flooring. This is linked by glazed double doors to a well-proportioned Lounge with a working fireplace, currently housing a multifuel stove. The Hallway also leads to a Kitchen-Diner with some character. The windows at the front of the property are the original 1930s, and the afternoon sun is especially beautiful when refracted through the original glass. From the hallway, there is also a two-person Jacuzzi Bathroom with marble flooring, a Study or ground-floor Baby Room, and Stairs leading to the First floor. The Hallway also leads through a fire door, which can be closed to create separate areas at the front and the back of the house, if desired. Here there‘s a door to the left opening into a small downstairs cloakroom, with a white WC, sink and small storage cupboard. Walking past this door leads into the ample Dining-room, through which is a lovely large, light, and comfortable Lounge with patio doors onto the Terrace and out into the Garden. Leading from this Lounge is also a good-sized Shower Room and a Back-Entrance area off the second Kitchen Utility with room for a small dining table and chairs, plus another good-sized ground-floor Double Bedroom. On the first floor Double Bedroom, 1 has a walk-in wardrobe, Double Bedroom 2 has access to the potential Roof terrace STPP and Sea glimpses, and the smaller Double Bedroom 3 also has Sea glimpses. There are two modern Shower Rooms on the first floor. The property has gas central heating. The water supply pipe to the property has recently been replaced, and the sewage pipe has been lined.

Yet it still provides Parking on the drive for 4 5 cars + small caravan. There is also On Road Parking with 1-hour exclusion on working days to stop strangers from parking all day for the nearby station and beach. The road is quiet, convenient, and a cherry blossom line. The neighbours are friendly and helpful. People keep an eye on each other’s houses. We have a road WhatsApp group, and street parties have been arranged for the neighbourhood to enjoy. The property is a very convenient 5-minute walk to Chalkwell Station, on the C2C line to Fenchurch Street. From there it’s a 45 50-minute commute into the City of London and City Airport is also a short train ride. While Southend Airport is only 3 miles away, and the hospital is 2 miles.
