This extended four-double-bedroom semi-detached home on a quiet cul-de-sac offers a flexible layout for everyday family life. Three reception rooms and a separate ground-floor shower room provide adaptable space for working from home, formal dining, play or relaxation. The principal reception opens to a sunny south-facing rear garden and a modern outbuilding with bi-fold doors, ideal as a home office or studio (part used as store).
Practical advantages include off-street parking on a large brick-paved driveway, double glazing installed after 2002, mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, and freehold tenure. The property sits close to strong local schools (Scotts Primary rated Outstanding) and is only 0.5 miles from Hornchurch Underground, making daily commutes straightforward.
Built in the 1980s, the house presents as well-maintained but is of average overall size (1,261 sq ft) for a four-bedroom home. The rear garden is largely artificial lawn for low maintenance, with a stone patio and established plantings. The modern outbuilding is plastered, powered and lit, with vinyl flooring and bifold doors, offering genuine home-office utility.
Buyers should note the council tax band is above average for the area. While broadly well-presented, the property’s 1983–1990 construction and average internal footprint mean buyers seeking larger or period features may find it less suitable. Viewing is recommended to appreciate its flexible layout and outdoor workspace potential.
