Cranmer Close, Billericay, Essex, CM12

An extension can truly transform a space, and the impact it has had on this home is significant.

The interior of this property has undergone a notable transformation, and with nearly 1900sqft of versatile living space available there is plenty of room to accommodate most family needs.

As you step into the reception hall, you'll be greeted by an elegant staircase adorned with scroll handrail ends. The grand ambiance is further enhanced by the smooth plastered ceiling with inset down lighters and a stylishly tiled floor.

Thoughtful professional design has ensured the ground floor living room of this family home has almost doubled in size and with that extra space it enables zonal uses within the space available.

Furthermore, the kitchen is now open to a designated dining area big enough for a 10-12 seater table while double doors open to both the rear snug and living room. These doors allow for an open layout on the ground floor or the option to create more intimate spaces.

Within these areas notable design features have been incorporated and in addition to both spaces having double doors leading out to the garden, the living room also enjoys a vaulted ceiling with skylight windows.

Upstairs, you'll find windows adorned with chic plantation shutters in addition to three double bedrooms, a family bathroom, and an ensuite shower room.

As you will see from the photos and floor plan this home enjoys stylishly blocked paved driveway for multiple vehicles and the rear garden with two seating areas also boasts a quality contemporary styled garden office which is insulated and has power connected, as well as down lighters to complete that modern feel.

Owners within the same development tell us utilising local cut throughs, they can 'run' to Buttsbury School in little over a minute! In fact the property falls within catchment for the OFSTED rated 'Outstanding' Buttsbury School & Mayflower Secondary School. Local shops down the main road include a large Supermarket and Stock Brook Country Club with its top leisure facilities and golf course is just up the road. Billericay Mainline Station (Liverpool Street in 35 minutes) is within walking distance too (a large portion of the residents on the estate are commuters).

In conclusion, a well-designed family home in a convenient sought-after area offering ample space for families to expand and interact, along with easy access to peaceful countryside walks.
