3 bed link detached house for sale

Middle Mead Close, West Hanningfield CM2

Situated in the peaceful village of West Hanningfield, is this three-bedroom link-detached house, offered with no onward chain. Built in 1962 and located in a quiet cul-de-sac, the property is set well back from the road, enjoying a pleasant and open outlook over a large green to the front and side. Ideal for families or buyers looking for a home with potential, it benefits from a generous rear garden, spacious accommodation throughout, and the opportunity to extend (STPP), as neighbouring properties have done.

The ground floor begins with a welcoming entrance porch leading into a spacious hallway. The kitchen is situated at the front of the house and offers a range of floor-mounted units, an integral dishwasher, built-in oven, electric hob and extractor fan above. There are two large built-in cupboards, one currently used as a pantry and the other for additional storage. From the kitchen, there is access to a covered walkway leading to the utility area which has space and plumbing for a washing machine, tumble dryer, and freezer. This area also provides access to a ground floor WC and an additional storage cupboard.

The main living space includes a bright, dual-aspect lounge with plenty of natural light and a generous dining room, which provides access to the rear garden via a side door. Off the dining room is a conservatory, perfect for enjoying the garden outlook year-round, and also offering direct access to the outdoor space.

On the first floor, the accommodation comprises three bedrooms—two double rooms with fitted wardrobes and views over the rear garden, and a third well-proportioned single room, also with built-in storage. The shower room features an electric power shower, sink, and shelving, while a separate WC sits adjacent. There is potential to knock through and create a larger family bathroom if desired.

Externally, the rear garden measures approximately 70 feet in length, offering excellent outdoor space for gardening, entertaining, or future development. There is also a powered shed for additional storage, and the property includes a single garage located in a nearby block. Over the years, the current owners have carried out a number of improvements including the installation of cavity wall insulation, an updated immersion tank, and the re-felting of the garage roof. The property is fully electric and double-glazed throughout.
