126, Thorndon Avenue, Brentwood, CM13 3TR

A show-stopping three-bedroom bungalow combining sensational open-plan living, gorgeous gardens, superb parking, enormous extension potential and village charm, all within walking distance of West Horndon station.

Welcome to Thorndon Avenue - a seriously impressive three bedroom semi-detached bungalow occupying a fantastic plot in the ever-popular semi-rural Essex village of West Horndon.

Stylish, spacious and packing enough future potential to get your architect reaching for the sketchpad, this is most definitely not your average bungalow.

Step through the front door into the entrance hall and prepare for the main event: A sensational open-plan kitchen/diner/family room that absolutely understands the assignment.

This is the social heart of the home.

Morning coffee, Sunday roasts, Friday-night drinks, birthday parties, homework negotiations and those supposedly “quiet” get-togethers that somehow end with twelve people around the dining table - this space was made for real life and entertaining.

And because even the most sociable households occasionally need separate territory, there’s also a separate lounge.

Perfect for movie nights, disappearing with a good book, letting the kids take over, or simply watching your favourite television programme without somebody operating a blender six feet away.

Practicality gets its own moment too, courtesy of a separate utility room - because washing machines, laundry baskets and general household admin do not need starring roles in your beautiful kitchen.

There are three great-sized bedrooms, giving you plenty of flexibility for family life, guests, home working or the dressing room you’ve been mentally designing since paragraph two.

The largest bedroom comes complete with its own en-suite, while a separate shower room serves the remainder of the home. Then we head outside - and things get even more interesting.

The property offers huge potential to extend, subject to the necessary planning consents. Go backwards. Go sideways. Potentially go upwards.

Create additional bedrooms, home office, gym or whatever your future plans demand. Stpc, naturally - but the plot certainly gets the imagination going.

There’s also a detached garage and off-street parking for multiple vehicles, meaning the daily game of “who has blocked whom in?” could finally become a thing of the past.

To the rear sits a gorgeous garden with plenty of room for summer entertaining, barbecues, children, pets, gardening ambitions and the inevitable purchase of outdoor furniture the moment the temperature reaches 18 degrees.

Location? Very handy indeed.

West horndon train station is within walking distance, providing direct rail services to London Fenchurch Street - ideal for commuters who want village life without waving goodbye to straightforward access into the capital.

The A127 is also easily accessible, while local shops, schools and everyday amenities are conveniently close by.

And then there’s West Horndon itself - a popular semi-rural Essex village offering that increasingly sought-after combination of countryside atmosphere, community feel and excellent connectivity.

So, what are we looking at here? Three bedrooms. Two separate reception/living zones. A fabulous open-plan kitchen/diner/family room. Utility room. En-suite. Shower room. Garage. Multiple-car parking.

Gorgeous garden. Station within walking distance. And extension potential that could take this already impressive home to another level.
