This three-bedroom semi-detached cottage on Hawkswood Road offers a comfortable, characterful home on a decent corner plot in a quiet, semi-rural pocket of Downham. The layout includes two generous reception rooms, a small country kitchen, a pantry, and a single family shower room — ready to occupy while you plan any updates. Double-glazed windows, garage and substantial garden storage add everyday practicality.
The plot and setting are major strengths: a good-sized garden with multiple sheds, a corner position and a quiet private access road shared with only two other properties. There is scope to extend or add on-site parking (subject to planning permission), which will appeal to growing families or buyers wanting to increase space and value. Fast commuter links to Wickford and direct trains to central London make this suitable for countryside workers who travel.
Internal space is well-proportioned for the overall footprint (approx. 969 sq ft): two doubles and a single bedroom, sunny landing and two light reception rooms. The property has been reduced in price to reflect potential improvement works — modernisation would benefit the kitchen and bathroom if you want contemporary fittings and layout changes. The house has no flood risk, very low local crime and sits in an affluent, low-deprivation area with strong mobile and broadband connectivity.
Nearby schooling includes several well-rated Church of England primary schools and an independent option; the nearest secondary (Mayflower High School) is currently rated as requiring improvement. This cottage will suit families seeking a rural-feel location with commuter convenience, or an investor/buyer prepared to upgrade the home to realise further value.
