A substantial four-bedroom detached family house in a quiet cul-de-sac, minutes from Rayleigh High Street and within easy driving distance of the station. The home offers three reception rooms, an ensuite to the master, separate utility, downstairs WC, garage, driveway and a decent rear garden — a useful blank canvas for a family needing space and convenience.
The property was built circa 1996–2002 and benefits from double glazing and mains gas central heating. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, making the house well suited to modern family life or home working. Nearby primary and secondary schools have good to outstanding Ofsted ratings, which reinforces the family appeal.
Important practical notes: the house requires full refurbishment throughout and will suit a buyer prepared to invest time and money to upgrade kitchens, bathrooms and finishes. It will be sold by auction under the Modern Method of Auction — buyers must pay a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of the purchase price, minimum £6,600 inc. VAT), complete within 56 days and conduct their own due diligence. Council tax is described as expensive.
This is a clear opportunity for a growing family or a renovation-focused buyer who wants to create a long-term home in a very affluent area with good local amenities and schools. If you are comfortable with the auction route and refurbishment work, the location and layout provide strong long-term potential.
