This spacious five-bedroom detached house offers flexible family living across about 2,044 sq ft, just 0.6 miles from Rayleigh High Street. The ground floor includes a large kitchen/breakfast room with direct garden access, a generous dual-aspect lounge and a ground-floor bedroom with ensuite — useful for guests or multi-generational households. Upstairs provides four further bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with a large ensuite. Finished areas such as polished marble tiling, underfloor heating in principal reception rooms and high-quality sanitary fittings give the home an elevated feel.
Outdoor space is family-friendly: a west-facing landscaped rear garden with tiled patio and established planting, a substantial powered outbuilding currently arranged as a bar/office with decking, plus a wide driveway for multiple vehicles. The converted garage provides extra reception/bedroom space but reduces secure indoor parking; the outbuilding adds useful ancillary accommodation for work or hobbies. Excellent local amenities include Rayleigh Primary and Wyburns Primary within walking distance, nearby High Street shops and rail links to London in around 45 minutes.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold and set in an affluent neighbourhood with fast broadband and strong mobile signal, making it suitable for home working. However, local crime statistics are above average — prospective buyers should factor this into security and insurance considerations. The house presents as well-proportioned and largely move-in ready, though buyers seeking a strictly original garage will note it has been converted to living space.
Overall, this home will suit growing families or buyers needing flexible space for home working and occasional multi-generational use. The combination of generous internal space, an adaptable outbuilding and convenient commuter links makes the property particularly attractive to buyers prioritising space and location.
