This spacious 3/4-bedroom property on Haltwhistle Road blends family living with genuine home-business potential. The house offers a generous lounge, dining room, conservatory opening to a south-facing garden, and a double garage plus a large driveway with space for several cars. An independently accessed outbuilding with its own WC, electrics and 3-phase power provides rare flexibility for a workshop, office, studio or potential annexe.
Arranged over multiple levels and built in the 1980s, the layout includes three well-proportioned bedrooms plus a dressing room (previously a fourth bedroom), an en-suite shower room and a family bathroom. The house appears well-maintained with double glazing, landscaped garden, and plenty of storage and loft access. Local amenities, the railway station and several well-regarded primary schools are close by, and the area is described as very affluent with very low crime and excellent mobile and broadband coverage.
Buyers should note some practical caveats: main heating is electric (room heaters), which can be more costly than gas; the glazing install date is unknown; tenure details are not provided; and records list the built form as semi-detached despite marketing as detached. These points may prompt upgrade or clarification work and should be factored into plans and budgets.
Priced at £525,000 for about 1,226 sq ft on a decent plot, this home suits a family needing space and parking, or an owner-occupier seeking a property with immediate business or studio potential via the separate unit. The combination of sizeable living areas, off-street parking and an independently accessed craft unit makes this a rare and adaptable proposition in South Woodham Ferrers.
