About
Guide Price £450,000 - £475,000 This stylishly presented three-bedroom modern semi-detached family home offers the perfect blend of contemporary living and everyday convenience, situated just a short walk away from Wickford mainline station with its direct links into London.
Stepping through the front door, an inviting entrance hall guides you past a practical ground floor cloakroom and flows seamlessly into the property’s true centrepiece, which is an impressive, light-filled open-plan kitchen, dining, and reception room.
Designed with modern entertaining in mind, this generous space features sleek wood laminate flooring and double doors that open directly onto a thoughtfully landscaped rear garden.
The kitchen itself is well-equipped with a comprehensive range of base and wall units, work surfaces, and a full suite of integrated appliances, including a gas hob with a retractable extractor hood, separate oven, a microwave, a dishwasher, a fridge freezer, and a washing machine, alongside a handy under-stairs storage cupboard.
Positioned just off this main living area is a second, well-appointed lounge that offers fantastic flexibility as a cosy retreat, an inspiring home office, or even a fourth bedroom.
This room is uniquely enhanced by a striking exposed brick feature wall that injects an effortless, high-end warehouse aesthetic into the home.
Moving upstairs, the first-floor landing connects three well proportioned bedrooms and a family bathroom.
The main bedroom overlooks the peaceful rear aspect and enjoys its own boutique-style ensuite wet room, complete with a walk-in shower cubicle, a wash hand basin, a low-level WC, and a wall-mounted heated chrome towel rail.
The remaining bedrooms are served by the main family bathroom, which has a pristine feel, including a panel-enclosed bath featuring a glass shower screen, a wash basin, and a chrome heated towel rail.
Outside: The seamless flow of the home extends outdoors, where the attractive, private rear garden begins with a paved patio area that is ideal for whiling away those summer months and entertaining.
The rest of the garden is laid to a neat lawn, safely enclosed by timber fence panels and softened by a selection of mature trees and established shrubbery.
To the front of the property, a block-paved driveway provides highly valuable, off-street parking for two vehicles.
Location: Perfectly positioned within Penrith Crescent, a highly sought-after residential enclave, the property is uniquely suited for growing families and commuters alike.
Beyond the exceptional rail links, motorists will appreciate the effortless connections to both the A130 and A127.
Everyday life is made easy with Wickford High Street's vibrant selection of restaurants, pubs, and shops located within easy walking distance.
