About 1-mile walk to Ingatestone station; good local schools
A three-bedroom semi-detached house on Heybridge Road offered chain-free and on the market for the first time since 1963. The house sits on a decent plot with a south-facing rear garden that catches sunlight for much of the day, plus a detached single garage accessed via a shared driveway.
Internally the layout is flexible: a bright lounge with sliding patio doors, a dining room with bi-fold doors, a ground-floor double bedroom and two first-floor bedrooms with built-in storage. The kitchen is dated and the property generally requires renovation, which makes it well suited to buyers wanting to modernise and add value rather than a move-in-ready home.
Practicalities: the house is solid-brick construction from the 1950s–60s with double glazing (install date unknown) and gas central heating via a boiler and radiators. There is one family bathroom and moderate council tax; local amenities include shops, playgrounds and good-rated nearby schools. Ingatestone station is about a mile on foot, offering convenient rail links.
Important considerations: the property needs updating throughout and some thermally inefficient solid walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation. Flooding risk is listed as medium in the area and there is only one bathroom. Buyers should factor renovation costs, potential insulation works, and the medium flood risk into their plans.
