Tucked away on a peaceful residential turning in the Brentwood countryside, this detached four-bedroom home offers the best of both worlds – calm, space, and greenery on your doorstep, yet just a short drive from the energy and connections of town. It’s the kind of setting that suits slow mornings and weekend walks, but doesn’t leave you out of touch – ideal for growing families or anyone seeking that balance between lifestyle and location.

The house itself is set back behind a generous frontage with an integral garage and driveway parking, giving it a solid and settled feel from the outset. Inside, it opens up beautifully – a wide hallway leads through to a large open-plan living, dining, and kitchen space that spans the full width of the rear. This is where the rhythm of daily life unfolds – French doors line the back wall, inviting in natural light and opening straight onto the garden. It’s a space made for hosting, for family meals, for working at the table with a view – it just flows in a way that feels effortless.

The kitchen is well laid out with plenty of workspace, and there’s a clear distinction between cooking, dining, and relaxing zones – so everyone can do their thing without getting in each other’s way. To the front, a separate reception room offers flexibility – a quiet snug, home office, or playroom – giving you that all-important extra space to retreat or switch off. There’s a utility room and downstairs WC too, both cleverly tucked away to keep things running smoothly behind the scenes.

Upstairs, the layout is smart and family-friendly. The principal bedroom is particularly generous – a calm, airy space with an en-suite and room for wardrobes or a dressing area. A second bedroom also benefits from its own en-suite, while the remaining two bedrooms share a well-finished family bathroom with both a bath and a separate shower. Each room has proper proportions and natural light – no awkward corners or token ‘box’ rooms here – just thoughtful, practical design that adapts as your needs evolve.

From a location perspective, you’re well placed to enjoy the best of Brentwood and beyond. Brentwood station is just a short drive away, offering fast trains into London Liverpool Street, or you can hop on the Elizabeth Line from Shenfield and reach central London – including Bond Street and Tottenham Court Road – in under 45 minutes. For drivers, the A12 and M25 are both easily accessible, making road links across Essex and into London seamless.

Families will find a strong selection of schools nearby. Brentwood School offers an exceptional independent option with a rich history, while state choices such as St Peter’s High and Becket Keys are highly regarded. There are also excellent nurseries and primary schools in the area, along with a supportive local community that makes settling in easy.

For day-to-day essentials, there are plenty of options – Brentwood High Street is just a few minutes away, with Waitrose, M&S, and a mix of independents and high-street names. But the charm here lies in the lifestyle – cafés for lazy brunches, cosy pubs for Sunday roasts, and some excellent restaurants that punch well above their weight. Whether it’s a quick coffee from Shenfield’s boutique spots or a night out at The Gallery or Alec’s, you’re never short of places to eat well and unwind.

Green space is a big part of life here. Thorndon Country Park is close by, perfect for morning jogs, family picnics or just wandering with the dog. Weald Park is another favourite – great for kids, with wide open fields and woodland walks. Golf courses, gyms and yoga studios are all nearby too, making it easy to keep life well balanced.

All in all, this is a home that just works – quietly stylish, deceptively spacious, and built for real life. It gives you the room to grow, to entertain, to work from home or just relax in peace – all without compromising on location. If you're looking for somewhere that feels like home from the moment you step inside, this one’s well worth a closer look.
