Such has been the overwhelming success of Great Homes Limited’s Branksome Mews in the Essex town of Stanford-le-Hope, that now just the last remaining house is on the market – and at a price that will certainly prompt a smile.
At just £349,995, the mighty detached four-bedroom house represents not only the chance to acquire a home of immense character in an area ideal for commuting and family life, but a sound investment opportunity too. In fact, quite a bargain.
”We have priced the last remaining house at Branksome Mews at just £349,995,” says David Sparks, managing director of Chafford Hundred-based Great Homes Limited. “We felt that because the new residents are now settling in at Branksome Mews, it would be lovely if the last remaining house was occupied too. At this price it is certainly a good buy and we expect it to be snapped up in no time.”
The house is a Failand style, one of the most popular in Great Homes Limited’s portfolio of designs. It stands proudly at the entrance to Branksome Mews, making it something of a landmark home along the pretty tree-lined Branksome Avenue, one of Stanford-le-Hope’s most prestigious stretches of road.
Externally, the house is attractive with a central entrance door and front bay window, which together create a porch feature. Its soft red brick, sweep of roof, and neat square paned windows, including an arched window at the side, give it a
pleasing façade. The house has a neat front garden that follows a course around the side of the property and opens out into a rear garden of good size proportions. A garage, plus additional private off-street car parking, sits conveniently to the rear.
The Failand’s good looks continue inside where the first impression is one of space and freshness. A long hallway offers a route to a study to the left – an essential room for those that like to work or study at home, a large lounge with French doors to the garden and a fireplace that provides a focal point to the room, a kitchen and breakfast room, utility, separate dining room set into the front bay and a downstairs cloakroom.
A neatly moulded staircase ascends from the ground floor to the first floor, turning mid-way, to a landing area and the house’s four bedrooms. All are of a good size, allowing plenty of room for furniture. The master room is, in fact, a suite comprising a bedroom, dressing area and ensuite shower room all set behind a closed door for complete privacy. The family bathroom is on the first floor too.
Throughout the house are touches of refinement. The bathroom, ensuite and cloakroom, for instance, has sanitaryware that is especially elegant. Presented in white, it allows for personal flair with colour from towels, soaps and ornaments.
The kitchen, too, has shaker style wood cabinets and toning wall tiles and flooring, plus a generous selection of built-in appliances – a double oven, five-ring hob, stainless steel chimney, washer/dryer and an integrated dishwasher and fridge/freezer are all included as standard and ensure it is ready for immediate occupation. Just move-in with some crockery and saucepans and a meal will be on the table in no time!
Elsewhere, the house offers a full gas central heating system, double glazed windows and doors, an imposing traditional wooden front door and a seemingly endless array of electrical, telecommunication and television points. For peace of mind, the house also comes complete with sturdy locks, fire alarms and a 10-year Zurich building guarantee.
Branksome Mews has been one of the success stories for Great Homes Limited, not only because it has offered attractive high spec homes to the residents that now form its community, but also because its location has meant it is imminently suitable for families and commuters alike.
Stanford-le-Hope is known for its fine schools, which is an essential amenity for any family looking to relocate. Gable Hall and St Clere’s School are both well regarded and within a short distance. The area also offers a library, restaurants with food to suit most tastes, sports centres and shops for everyday purchases, while Basildon, Grays and Southend, plus Lakeside shopping complex, offer a wider selection still.
For the commuter, Branksome Mews is well placed for travelling by train into London’s Fenchurch Railway Station - a typical journey takes less than 50 minutes – while for the car driver the A13/M25/A127 road network is minutes away.
The Failand offers so much – and at a price that can’t be dismissed. For further information, contact Carla at Fisks, the selling agent for Branksome Mews, on 01268 510510 or visit www.greathomesltd.co.uk.
