High-gloss kitchen fittings, built-in wardrobes and three reception areas give everyday family life flexibility — from home working to formal dining and relaxed living.
Outside, the un-overlooked west-facing rear garden extends to about 100ft with a large patio and mature borders — excellent for children and entertaining. Practical additions include a block-paved driveway for 2–3 cars, an electric vehicle charging point and a powered summerhouse suitable as a home office, gym or hobby room.
The property sits in a highly convenient location: around 0.5 miles (five minutes’ walk) to Benfleet mainline station and close to several well-regarded primary and secondary schools. Fast broadband and strong mobile signal support modern working and family connectivity.
Notable considerations: the house is a solid-brick period build (pre-1900) with no known cavity insulation, and the double-glazing install date is not specified — buyers should budget for potential insulation or window upgrades to improve thermal efficiency.
