No onward chain and generous living space make this four-bedroom detached chalet an appealing family home in Benfleet. Set on a large plot, the property offers a private rear garden with a swimming pool, off-street parking and garage with loft storage — practical features for family life and entertaining. The layout includes a downstairs cloakroom and an open ensuite-style shower in the main bedroom for added convenience.
Located within the catchment for The Robert Drake Primary School and The Appleton School, and a short drive from Benfleet station with easy A127 access, the home suits families who need good schools and commuter links. The house was built in the 1930s–1940s and retains period character with a semi-circular bay and dormer windows, while double glazing has been installed post-2002.
Buyers should note a single main bathroom for four bedrooms and that the property’s solid-brick walls are likely uninsulated, so there may be opportunity — and cost — to improve thermal performance. Broadband speeds are slow in the area, and the pool and large garden will require ongoing maintenance. Council Tax Band E reflects above-average local charges.
Overall this is a well-located, character-filled family home with strong school links, a substantial garden and scope to modernise energy efficiency and services to suit a growing family.
