A substantial four-bedroom detached family house set on a large, private plot backing onto woodland. The ground floor offers separate lounge and dining rooms, a generous kitchen/breakfast space, utility, study/sun room and ground-floor cloakroom — excellent circulation for family life. Upstairs are four well-proportioned bedrooms, including a principal with en-suite, a family bathroom with bath and separate shower, plus a boarded loft with light and ladder for storage or potential conversion (subject to planning).
The property has been in the same ownership for over 20 years and now requires updating and modernisation throughout. Notable items include older double glazing (pre-2002), dated finishes and general renovation needs which present an opportunity to add value and personalise to modern standards. Heating is mains gas with boiler and radiators; broadband speeds are slow in the area.
Externally there is a long driveway leading to a double-width integral garage, substantial frontage, and a mature rear garden offering privacy and woodland views — room to create a contemporary outdoor living space. The location is convenient: around 0.4 miles to Ingatestone High Street, local shops and two supermarkets, and within roughly 1 mile of the mainline station to London Liverpool Street.
This house will particularly suit growing families looking for space, privacy and top local schools, or developers and investors seeking a renovation project in an affluent, low-crime neighbourhood. Buyers should factor in refurbishment costs and higher council tax when assessing affordability.
