Set on an exceptional c.1.20 acre plot, this spacious detached house blends substantial family living with distinctive period character. The property delivers huge reception space across multiple rooms, an indoor heated swimming pool and a solid oak kitchen with granite surfaces — features that suit growing families who value space, privacy and flexible living.
Practical strengths include a private gated entrance, ample off-street parking, a double detached garage and views from most bedrooms. Planning permission is already in place to convert the pool area into separate accommodation or an annex, creating clear potential for additional living space or income.
Buyers should note a few material points: the house is a solid-brick build likely without modern cavity insulation, and therefore may benefit from thermal upgrades. Council tax is high (Band G) and local recorded crime levels are above average. These factors should be weighed against the property's size, plot and position within sought-after school catchments and walking distance to Rayleigh station and high street.
Overall this is a rare, substantial family home for someone prepared to maintain and sensitively update a large period property. It offers immediate comfortable living plus tangible scope to tailor accommodation — ideal for families seeking space, privacy and strong transport and schooling links.
