This three-bedroom detached house on Burnham Road sits on a generous plot backing onto open farmland and the River Crouch — a rare semi-rural feel within commuting distance. The layout includes a large lounge opening to a conservatory, a ground-floor bedroom, two first-floor bedrooms and a family bathroom, giving practical living space for a small family or buyers wanting room to adapt.
The property requires renovation: internal modernisation, improved insulation and likely updates to services will be needed. Walls are cavity with no added insulation (assumed), glazing date is unknown and some rooms show limited head height. These are straightforward upgrade items that will increase comfort and value for a buyer prepared to invest.
Practical positives include off-street parking, gated side access, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, freehold tenure, fast broadband and very low local crime. The large rear garden and countryside backing offer scope for landscaping, extensions (subject to planning) or simply creating a private outdoor haven.
Location is a strong selling point: riverside walks, local shops and several primary schools rated Good are nearby, with transport links to surrounding towns. The property suits buyers who want to personalise and add value rather than those seeking a turnkey home.
