Langham Crescent, Billericay

2 Bedroom Ground Floor Maisonette with an 83ft Garden that boasts two brick outbuildings just outside the back door as well as a huge timber workshop at the end of the Garden. You could easily convert the larger of the brick ones into a little studio to work from home and the workshop equally could make a great Home Bar of bigger Home Office.

Enjoy Summer afternoons and evenings with friends under the covered area between the brick buildings and the back door from the Kitchen - a clever secluded nook big enough for a large dining table or rattan seating.

The Flat itself is an excellent size, surprisingly large with the accommodation comprising an Entrance Hall with lovely wood flooring extending everywhere bar the Bathroom & Kitchen, nice size Lounge/Diner with potential for the Fireplace to be opened up again, refitted Kitchen with a big built-in shelved Larder, 2 super-size bedrooms (the larger with a huge understairs cupboard) and the Bathroom.

There is Gas Central Heating via radiators with a new Boiler in the Kitchen, the windows are double glazed, and the large Front Garden offers potential of off street parking as a Front Drive, as many others have done.

Billericay High Street with its central Waitrose Store is an easy walk at 0.7 mile and local shops including a handy Tesco Express, are just a 5-6 minute walk away too.

The local Infants & Primary Schools re just as close plus open countryside is literally around the corner - a 2-minute stroll away.

Of note for Investors, the current tenants have been here for 18 years and have kept it in great condition. They could potentially be interested in staying on, otherwise are happy to vacate for a non-investor buyer.


The Accommodation

Composite front door through to:

L-SHAPED HALLWAY

The gorgeous wood flooring extends on into the Lounge and both bedrooms.

A large full height built in cupboard provides a super storage facility.


LOUNGE 13ft 4' (4.1 m) x 12ft (3.7 m)

The large front facing window brings in lots of natural daylight.

The original fireplace has been boarded up, but we noted an air vent at the bottom, and we understand that the upstairs flat still uses their fireplace and so one can only presume it would be fairly straightforward to reinstate it and have a full working fireplace if desired.


KITCHEN 10ft 6" (3.2 m) x 9 ft (2.7 m)

Fitted with a modern range of light wood effect units topped with shiny black/grey worktops and incorporating a sleek black Electric Hob with a matching black Multi-Function Oven below and an Extractor Hood above. Plus, there are spaces below the worktops for three appliances (washing machine, dishwasher, and a fridge).

The kitchen still retains its original built-in shelved ladder, which is 1ft 8" (0.5 m) deep internally, therefore some of the shelves could be removed in favour of a freezer if required.
Plus, with the outside measurements 4ft 3" (1.3 m) x 1ft 9" (0.5 m), the whole thing could be removed of course in favour of fitted kitchen units.

A 'black gloss' wall mounted cupboard opens to reveal the Ideal 'Logic Max Combi C24' Gas fired Combination Boiler and the part glazed UPVC back door, rear main window and a little window to the right of the back door, makes it a very bright kitchen.


BEDROOM ONE 15ft 3' (4.7 m) x 8ft 4" (2.5 m)

A huge front facing bedroom with the measurements excluding a very large walk-in understairs cupboard with a light.


BEDROOM TWO 12ft 1" (3.7 m) x 8ft 7" (2.6 m)

A good size double bedroom with a rear facing window enjoying the pleasant outlook over the garden.


BATHROOM 6 ft (1.8 m) x 5ft 6" (1.7 m)

Dated but exceedingly clean and functional.

A rear facing window brings in plenty of natural light and up high is a useful full width built in storage cupboard.


GARDEN

The garden itself is 83ft long, predominantly lawn with two brick outbuildings at the top and a path leading down to a huge timber workshop at the end of the garden.

The back door from the kitchen opens on a concrete path which runs along the back of the property, this running straight onto an area of chunky solid wood decking approximately 9 ft squared, the area covered by fabric covered framework above, providing a rain proof outside dining and entertaining area during the summer months. The decking in turn directly accesses the two brick storage sheds.


STORAGE SHED ONE 8ft 1" (2.5 m) x 4ft10' (1.5 m)

There's a rear facing original metal window, and we note power is connected for the tenant's spare fridge, freezer and washing machine.

We have often seen buildings like this insulted, 'drylined' and made into great little home offices.


STORAGE SHED TWO 4ft 8' (1.4 m) deep x 3ft 5" (1 m) wide.

Some useful shelving has been added, all making for an exceedingly useful outside store.


WORKSHOP 15ft 2" (4.6 m) x 9ft 7" (2.9 m)

A Perspex skylight window brings in natural light and we noticed LED lighting and several double power sockets. A useful detached-from-the-Main-Home space.


FRONT GARDEN

Simply lawn with a path up to the Front Door. Many others along the street have created Front Drives on theirs.
