3 Bedroom House - Detached
A detached 1970's family home in a pleasant location, close to excellent local schools, that has great potential to create the family home of your dreams.
Overall Description
This is a detached 1970's family home in a pleasant residential location close to local schools and other amenities. The property has three bedrooms and a bathroom on the first floor, while downstairs there is a front porch, hallway, cloakroom, sitting/dining room and kitchen. There is a private driveway in the front garden leading to the garage. The back garden has a patio area, central lawn and well-stocked flowerbeds with mature shrubs and trees. The house has double-glazed windows and a warm-air gas central-heating system, and although it would benefit from internal modernisation, on the plus side it also has considerable scope for extension and improvement under permitted development rights, as has already been done to other properties in the area. This excellent family home is being sold with no forward chain and viewing is highly recommended. To that end, we have an Open Day booked from 10am to 11am on Saturday the 21st of February so please call to book yourself in to see this excellent family home.
Location
This property sits down a cul-de-sac, in a pleasant residential location, towards the edge of the town of Wickford. Wickford is a popular, family-friendly Essex town with excellent direct train links to London Liverpool Street (approx. 40-50 mins), making it popular with commuters. It boasts top-rated schools, including the "outstanding" rated Beauchamps High School and Hilltop Infant School, both of which are a short walk away. It has a strong sense of community and easy access to beautiful Essex countryside, so offers buyers a quieter, more affordable alternative to nearby London boroughs. There is a Tesco Express a five minute walk away and the town centre has a good variety of shops, a library, an open-air market, and a swimming pool. Wickford is home to a variety of local sports clubs catering to football, cricket, tennis, and fitness including Wickford Town FC (youth football), Wickford Cricket Club, Wickford Lawn Tennis Club, and Runwell Sports & Social Club. Residents can enjoy outdoor areas like Memorial Park and the 50-acre Wickford Country Park, which offers walking trails and scenic lakes. All in all, a pleasant and safe environment to bring up a growing family.
