*Guide Price £650,000 - £700,000*
Nestled along Hockley Road in the historic town of Rayleigh, this enchanting 18th-century inspired cottage-style home effortlessly combines period charm with modern convenience. Brimming with character, the property offers three/four generously sized bedrooms, including a delightful walk-in wardrobe, and a choice of welcoming reception rooms that provide both intimate nooks for quiet evenings and larger spaces for family gatherings. The spacious lounge, with its warm and inviting atmosphere, forms the heart of the home, while the carefully modernised interiors ensure comfort and practicality without compromising on timeless appeal.
Stepping outside, the property reveals an expansive rear garden reminiscent of a countryside retreat, filled with mature trees, shrubs, and natural greenery. A paved patio offers the perfect setting for al fresco dining, while a charming pond and summer house lend further character to this idyllic outdoor haven. The size of the plot also presents exciting potential, subject to planning consent, for an additional dwelling—envisioned as a four-bedroom detached home with its own generous garden and parking.
Practical features such as off-street parking and side access add to the convenience, while the home’s location, within easy reach of Rayleigh High Street and its array of shops, cafés, and amenities, ensures the best of both rural charm and town living. Rarely does a property of this character and setting become available, making this cottage-style family home a truly exceptional opportunity.
