Have you ever wondered what £1.1 million can buy you in Essex?
Well today we're going to show you. I'm Tim and welcome to the New Build Show.
Today we're in Little Eastern at Denbury Homes Development. 47 different homes available,
3, 4 and 5 bed options available to you. Now it's a rural kind of countryside living feel
that we've got here but with good amenities. We're close by to Stansted Airport so if you
need to travel abroad you've got great links to that. You've also got a wonderful local pub,
you've got local schools, shops, everything nearby but you're situated just enough into
the countryside that you can have that kind of secluded feeling if you want to.
But let's have a look at the actual property. To start with you've got a wonderfully large
expansive driveway for you so ample space for plenty of cars and speaking of cars you've got
a twin garage as well and an EV charging point so if you're on an electric car don't worry
they've already got you covered. Now this is actually the show home which has already sold
and it did come to the market at £1.1 million. Now there are other plots still available and
prices start from £440,000. Let's take a look inside this one and see what it's got in store.
When you come into the property you've got this wonderful entrance hallway.
Now it's a really nice size that you've got, plenty of space to be able to
kick your shoes off, get the kids bags and things out the way.
Directly in front of you you've also got a downstairs WC and I'm going to show you that
in a moment. Stairs taking us to the bedrooms, again I'm going to show you that in a moment
but I want to take you into the kitchen dining space first. Something I really like about that
big double door entrance creates that feeling of grandeur, sophistication, something quite elevated
about the space. Now this is a kitchen dining space that you've got here but we're going to
start over here with the kitchen. I really like the breakfast bar area they've got so a nice
informal place for food, for the kids breakfast, for quick dinners, things like that. In this
kitchen you've got decked on worktops and look at the sheer size of the countertop space that
you've got in here. But there are some variations and some options available to you so wherever
you're going to be looking to buy, whichever size home you're going to be looking to buy,
Denbury have got different options. It could be Sarlstone worktops but all of that information
you can follow through with them and all the links will be below in the box. Now you've got
ample storage in this kitchen, I mean it's a huge kitchen space that you've got here as well.
You do have integrated appliances so we've got the Bosch cooker top, we've got double Bosch
ovens in here, you've got the fridge freezer is actually over here and on the other side you've
got a whole additional pantry section. I really love the colour palette that they've chosen in
here, the show home. Very light, very neutral but tying in with the porcelainosa floor that we've
got which is one of those optional extras that we spoke about. Now you've got a utility room
right off to the side here which I really like. You've got these decked on worktops that are
matched in to the actual main kitchen. Space for your washing machine, you've even got
your wine fridge included here as well. Access to the garden through a short little door as well so
you don't have to worry if the kids are coming in from being outside or anything like that.
It means that you can kind of keep that mucky area contained or back from the dog walks.
Now you might have noticed this beautiful pop of colour from this quite striking wallpaper
that we've got around two of the actual walls in the kitchen and dining area and I do like how
they've tied the two rooms together keeping it on this back wall but focused it more into this
dining area really kind of lifting the colour that you've got down here. An eight seater dining table
that we've got fully laid out for a dinner party in here, so ample space to be able to entertain
or for those slightly more formal dining experiences that maybe you're going to be
for. I do like as well that you've even got space on that far wall for a good size sideboard there
as well so if you did have fine crockery crystalware or anything like that you want to
keep hidden out of the way you've got that. Who knows it could even be maybe a little bit of a
bar if you wanted to and thinking about it if you wanted this as a bit more of an entertaining space
there's nothing better than linking inside and outside together. Now you can do that because
you've got a set of patio doors directly off the dining room which lead out into your garden which
is phenomenal in size. Now when you do come outside it's an enormous garden space that you've got but
something I really like it doesn't feel enclosed but it does feel very private it doesn't feel
like I'm being overlooked by any of the neighbours and it does feel like you've got a real little
kind of oasis to yourself. I also really like how you're kind of backed on by some of these very
mature trees at the back of the property so you feel like you are coming into a more embedded
home not a new build because quite often with a new build everything can be exactly as it says
brand new so there's not a lot grown up around it but here you really feel like you are in the
countryside which is something I really like. I also like the fact that you've got this split
level garden as well so if you did want you could even have one area which is kind of designated
just for the kids and then you could have another area which was maybe more for you for the adults.
Now you do have access around the side like I said but you've also got access to another set
of patio doors which lead into the living room as well so if you did want to have those living
room doors open if you are having a big summer party or something like that it's really really
perfect but speaking of that living room let me take you in because there's something in there
that you're not going to want to miss. Coming back inside but into the lounge which means carpets
which means shoes off and it's nice and warm in here which means jacket off as well. This is an
enormous living room but the central focus point for me this beautiful fireplace I really like
earth tone kind of brick that we've got a huge great big thick kind of oak style mantle piece
on here with that log burner functional log burner as well so you can have a really cozy
comfortable night in and the living room is an enormous space we've got a three-seater two-seater
sofa two separate chairs two large sideboards in here so if you did want a different setup if you
wanted to have your tv in this room and you wanted a corner sofa or something or a big u-shape
what would be really quite nice would be one of those kind of semi-circle sofas you've got ample
space in here the decor very lovely lots of natural light coming in from the back and front of the
property and I like these almost sort of sash style windows just create a little bit of a different
aesthetic than having that standard sort of open close really really nice there is one more space
that we need to see downstairs which isn't always the most glamorous but it is important which is
the downstairs wc you might have noticed when we first came into the property there is another door
just to the side now that's actually the sales office in this particular property because this
is the show home however that could quite happily turn into your entertainment or your media room
if you wanted to but there is another little kind of trick the downstairs wc I love the wallpaper
love the styling but there's actually underneath here all of the pipe work and infrastructure
required to turn this into a wet room so if you did have a friend or relative that's living with
you that needed this to be an accessible room where they didn't want to have to deal with the
stairs you could turn that into a shower room if you need to which is quite nice one more final
thing before we move upstairs to look at those bedrooms underfloor heating downstairs in every
single room which I love because you then don't have to worry about adjusting your decor around
radiators thinking where things have got to go and I do love how it feels on your feet when you
come down first thing in the morning but let's go and check out the first of five bedrooms
coming upstairs you've got five bedrooms that we're going to look at and the first one is
actually the one right behind me which has been set up as a kid's bedroom now this is the smallest
of all of the bedrooms that we've got but you can see it's amply big enough for it to be a kid's
bedroom and a thing that I particularly like and I'm going to pick up on it in here and when we go
back onto the landing space is the use of colors that they've chosen to use in this particular
property because I like the fact that this has been kept quite neutral but having a nice bold
print on the wall which kind of lifts the mood and feel of the room but also accented with soft
colors that keep it nice and calm and relaxed now let's check out the first of the double bedrooms
which is right next door so this is one of the double bedrooms that we've got and in this room
you can see something different no wallpaper in here but they've gone for the same color on every
single wall this nice kind of muted sort of sage color and they've actually kept the color scheme
throughout the entire property all tied in together using these kind of navel blues accents of burnt
oranges everything feels very calming very high-end but also very welcoming very country
very user-friendly if that kind of makes sense I like this bedroom as well because you've got that
nice big bit of natural light coming in from the garden so a nice view good size for kind of
younger child's bedroom plenty of actual built-in storage with the wardrobes and space to be able to
put some extra chest of drawers and things in as well but let's take a look at the next double
bedroom before we start to look at the en-suites I kind of imagine this being for nine ten years old
ample storage space you've got in here you could quite happily put some wardrobes and things in
I think next door the previous bedroom is kind of designed for a younger teenager because
as we move through to the fourth bedroom which actually has an en-suite you'll see that I think
that should really be your kind of guest bedroom before I actually show you the en-suite bedroom
that's just here I wanted just to kind of again reiterate the height that you've got on these
ceilings here and as well that nice balance of color and space the texture between the wallpapers
the color walls even the fact that all of the wood all of the banisters all of the doors are actually
kind of an oat color they're not that stark harsh white you do have a little bit of additional
storage here on the landing as well so towels blankets extra bedding things like that but all
of those previous bedrooms would be sharing this your family bathroom you can see that you've got
porcelainosa tiling on the floor and halfway up again a nice sort of animated bit of wallpaper
in here to give a bit of fun you've got separate shower and a bath ample space perfect for the
whole family to be able to use because that last bedroom that I was going to show you as we
mentioned is an en-suite so this for me is perfect as your guest bedroom or those grumpy older
teenagers so this bedroom as you can see and you can feel is a little bit older a little bit more
mature a little bit more muted in colors but still a really big big size space that you've got in
here lots of natural light coming through spotlights in all of the bedrooms and throughout this entire
house which is another one of those upgraded features that you can have as you move through
the bedroom you can see that you do have an additional bit of storage with this wardrobe
space that we've got here and it does extend all the way up so plenty of storage space in the top
space here for a little vanity but then you've got the en-suite bathroom shower room I should say
which for me if you do have those older teenagers this is perfect for keeping them out of the way
or if you are going to have company or if you've got any relatives staying it just keeps them
nicely contained to themselves and again porcelain those are tiles but a difference in the tiles that
you've actually got from the floor to the actual shower here a nice contrast but mirrored in that
splash back behind the sink but now I want to take you through to the masterpiece of this house which
is the primary suite when I first walked in and saw this space I was blown away this is enormous
I mean I could do cartwheels in this space there is so much room in here obviously yep wonderful
bed I love the fact that we've got a little chair off to the side if you want to sit you want to
read you want to chill out have your morning quite often I'm obviously getting ready and having my
coffee while my wife is still in bed so this kind of setup would be perfect for us I love that you've
got windows to the back and to the front of the bedroom letting you have a full view I also really
like that you've almost got a wardrobe each already built in so there's no arguing over who's got how
much space if you are going to argue over who's got the space there's even more additional wardrobe
space just walking through before you get to the ensuite a nice space for a vanity or this could be
a tv unit or something if you really wanted to but the ensuite isn't what you expect you would
think oh it's just a shower room but it's not separate shower and bath it's a whole nother
bathroom that you've got here nice bit of led lighting to the mirror setup that you've got
and it's really spacious in here it's almost like having another family bathroom but you just get
to yourself which is really nice and then there's one more trick up its sleeve in this house another
room off the primary suite which has been set up here as a bit of a home office but how amazing
would this be as a dressing room imagine that really having everything laid out your shoes and
your belts and your watches or imagine having this as your own little media cinema style room
something that you can get away from the kids i think this is an absolute haven for this place
and i think it's beautifully done i think it's a really good spacious room you've got effectively
a whole nother sofa in here and a really large sizable desk all in all i think there's so much
house here for that price that we spoke about at the beginning so what do you think let me know in
the comments below well that's it you've seen everything let us know in the comments below
