Summary - CASTLE COTTAGES 1 OCKENDON ROAD UPMINSTER RM14 3PS
3 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached
Spacious three-bedroom character home with garage and large garden in a quiet Upminster setting.
Circa 1,904 sq ft — unusually large for a cottage
A rare, characterful three-bedroom cottage occupying an unusually large footprint (c.1,904 sq ft) in a quiet Upminster hamlet. The house blends Georgian exterior features — limewashed stone, sash windows and dual chimneys — with spacious, flexible rooms including a long lounge/diner, kitchen/dining room, utility and downstairs WC. Off-street parking and a larger-than-average garage add everyday convenience.
This property will suit families who value period charm, space and good local schools: it’s a short drive to Upminster town centre, outstanding state and independent schools, and offers easy access to the A127 and M25. The secluded, tree-lined rear garden provides privacy and scope for landscaping or a modest extension (subject to consents).
Important practical points: the building is pre-1900 with solid brick walls and no known cavity insulation, so energy efficiency may be limited. Council tax is above average. The house is shown with one bathroom in the supplied data, despite other marketing notes; buyers seeking multiple full bathrooms should expect to reconfigure space or add facilities. Broadband is fast but mobile signal is only average.
Overall this freehold semi-detached cottage is a decidedly spacious, character-rich home with scope to improve energy performance and add modern comforts. It will appeal to buyers seeking a distinctive family house with parking, garage storage and good access to local amenities and transport links.
