This substantial five-bedroom detached house sits on a no-through road overlooking the River Pant, offering almost 2,000 sqft of accommodation across three storeys. The layout includes a dual-aspect living room with a feature gas fireplace, a bay-fronted dining room, fitted kitchen with French doors to the garden, a separate utility and four bathroom suites — practical for a large family or multi-generational household. The double garage is powered and lit, and there is parking for several vehicles on the driveway.
Externally the rear garden faces south and has been landscaped with a porcelain patio, decked seating and lawn — low-maintenance but with space for children to play. The property was constructed circa 2007–2011, has double glazing and mains-gas central heating via boiler and radiators. Commuters benefit from Braintree station 1.8 miles away with direct rail links to London, while Bocking Primary School is about 0.3 miles, making the location convenient for school runs and local amenities.
Practical points to note: the council tax band is above average, and local area classifications describe the neighbourhood as ageing urban communities/communal retirement — this may influence buyer demand and the local profile. The house presents good scope for cosmetic updating in places to personalise finishes and fully capitalise on the internal space. No flood risk is recorded for the site, and the property is offered freehold.
Overall this is a roomy, modern family home with strong practical features — multiple bathrooms, large garage with power, generous driveway and pleasant river views — best suited to buyers seeking space, good commuter links and proximity to primary schooling.
