Great Bardfield, Nr Braintree

Property Description
HILLCREST HOUSE is an impressive, detached village home of individual style and character, nicely situated in what remains a very popular, well served and highly regarded village. Formerly a bungalow, the property was re-built by the current owners some 20 years ago creating this rather special property which provides spacious and well-proportioned living accommodation over two floors.
An impressive vaulted entrance hall brings you into the home with galleried landing above, attractive wooden floor and ground floor cloakroom set to one side. An attractive snug looks out to the front and provides a lovely additional reception room, whilst the principal sitting room looks across the rear garden, has an attractive log stove and double doors opening to outside. A separate dining room also features attractive wooden flooring and has a double glazed window to the side drawing in natural light.
The kitchen is nicely appointed and contains a range of storage cupboards complemented by worktops and integrated appliances including fridge-freezer, dishwasher and with space for a Range cooker. A double glazed window looks out to the rear and a wide opening links to a most attractive garden room which has windows on 3 sides and double doors opening to outside. There is a separate utility room accessed from the kitchen with further storage cupboards, worktops and appliance space.
Upstairs, the central galleried landing leads to 4 generously proportioned double bedrooms and a family bathroom which contains a 4-piece suite with a freestanding bath and shower cubicle, this being in addition to en suite facilities attached to bedrooms 1, 2 and 3.
OUTSIDE, the property is set back from the road slightly elevated behind a most attractive block paved driveway which provides off-street parking for several vehicles and gives access to a double garage. The driveway is softened by areas of lawn, shrub borders and hedging which give excellent enclosure to this space. The gardens to the rear are a particularly impressive feature of the property being laid out predominately to lawn interspersed with block-laid pathways and with a large paved terrace adjoining the back of the property providing ideal space for outside entertaining. The gardens contains a wide variety of plants, shrubs and hedging, again giving good enclosure to this impressive area which, ultimately, backs onto adjoining farmland and features an attractive timber summerhouse and pergola seating area.
