Norfolk House is a substantial detached home on a rare 0.7-acre plot, offering flexible accommodation for large families or multi-generational living. The main house provides four bedrooms, generous reception rooms and a large conservatory that opens onto a sun terrace and south-facing gardens. A fully self-contained two-bedroom annexe with its own electric meter and postal address adds rental or independent-living potential.
Leisure facilities are a clear strength: a heated indoor swimming pool with changing room and recently upgraded heating, a separate gym/games room with bar and storage, a covered hot-tub area and extensive grounds for outdoor recreation. Practical features include a gated in-and-out driveway, ample parking, two electric vehicle chargers and useful outbuildings.
Buyers should factor in maintenance and upgrading costs. The house dates from the 1930s–1940s with cavity walls assumed uninsulated; double glazing installation dates are unknown. The indoor pool and wooden-beam pool house will require ongoing servicing and running costs despite recent heating upgrades. The property has only two bathrooms for six bedrooms (plus annexe), which may be inconvenient for large households.
Located within protected Green Belt land near Basildon and Billericay, the setting is private and semi-rural but shown against an area with pockets of deprivation; nearby schools include highly rated primary and secondary options. This is a characterful, versatile country residence that will suit buyers seeking space, leisure facilities and annex income potential, while accepting the responsibilities of upkeep and possible modernisation.
