4 bed semi-detached house for sale

Shalford Road, Billericay CM11

Consistently one of the most popular designs of four-bedroom semi-detached house in the area, this particular example has been a well-cared-for and a much-loved family home for many years. Its worth noting every improvement and maintenance task carried out by professionals and it shows.

Four notable bedrooms are positioned upstairs, and the spacious landing, a much-admired feature of this design, serves them all well. Each bedroom benefits from built-in storage, and the refitted bathroom now boasts an exceptionally large walk-in corner shower cubicle in place of the original bath, a popular modern upgrade.

Downstairs, professionally decorated rooms are tidy and well-presented throughout, with smooth ceilings and inset spotlights giving a stylish, cared-for appearance. In addition, there is a downstairs WC, a front-to-back lounge diner with patio doors opening to the garden, and a refitted kitchen with integrated appliances that also leads onto the south-facing garden.

Over the years a comprehensive programme of improvements has been carried out, including windows, patio doors, external render boards, a replacement composite entrance door, a Henderson garage door and, most recently, a Glow-worm combi boiler installed in the loft in April of this year. Without doubt, a home where the hard work has genuinely been done.

Shalford Road sits within the popular Sunnymede area of Billericay, approximately one mile from the town centre and train station. What makes this stretch particularly appealing is that houses sit only on one side of the road, with an attractive wooded backdrop adjoining the railway line on the other, giving it a pleasant and surprisingly non-estate feel.
