Tucked quietly at the top of Rayleigh’s historic High Street, moments from the church and vibrant town centre, Ivy House is a beautifully restored, chain-free five-bedroom home full of character and lifestyle potential. With boutique restaurants, wine bars and a weekly market on your doorstep — yet blissfully peaceful inside and out — it’s your own private paradise in one of Essex’s most sought-after communities.

Downstairs, the show-stopping bespoke kitchen, charming dining room and generous living room flow beautifully — with original features throughout. There’s also a cloakroom and ground floor WC for added convenience.
Upstairs offers four double bedrooms and two bathrooms, with scope to reconfigure into a luxurious master suite with dressing room and en suite.
The real lifestyle gem is the stunning basement master with feature fireplace, bespoke storage and a luxury en suite wet room — with steps leading to the hot tub and bar area. Ideal as a private sanctuary, guest suite, gym or semi-independent space for older children.
Outside, the secluded garden is pet-friendly and perfect for entertaining, with Indian sandstone paving, app-controlled lighting, and a fully insulated home office — ideal for working from home or transforming into a creative space.
