Set on a substantial corner plot in sought-after Hockley Heath, this detached dormer bungalow delivers flexible family living and a self-contained annexe ideal for multi-generational households. The principal house offers generous living rooms, a large open-plan kitchen/diner with conservatory, two ground-floor double bedrooms with ensuites, plus three further double bedrooms upstairs. Outside there is a landscaped rear garden, secure courtyard parking, garage, gym and useful outbuildings.
The separate annexe has private access and provides open-plan living/kitchen space and two double bedrooms with ensuites — a practical solution for older children, carers or rental income. The property sits behind a wide stoned driveway with double gated access and substantial off-street parking, and benefits from fast broadband, double glazing and an EPC rating of C.
This house occupies a large plot with clear potential for extension or redevelopment (subject to planning permission). That makes it attractive to buyers wanting extra space now and scope to add value later. Local amenities, good primary schools and easy access to the M40/M42 make the location particularly family-friendly.
Buyers should note the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and the cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation, so some energy-efficiency upgrades may be required. Council tax is described as very expensive. Any extension or development will require planning permission (STPP) — works are not guaranteed. The annexe footprint is modest and better suited to one- or two-person occupancy rather than a large household.
