Description

This property presents an exciting renovation or investment opportunity set within a scenic country lane, just a short walk from the local cricket club and the center of the village. Currently featuring a dwelling, the site is ripe for redevelopment, offering potential for a larger single-family home or possibly two residential units, subject to obtaining necessary approvals from Chelmsford Council Planning Department. The plot spans approximately 43 meters in depth and 19 meters in width, providing generous space that includes an in-and-out carriage driveway, alongside a variety of mature trees and shrubs that enhance its appeal. The orientation ensures that the property enjoys ample sunlight throughout the day, creating a pleasant environment for future developments. Situated in Stock, a charming village and civil parish in south Essex near Chelmsford, this location offers a blend of rural tranquility and convenient amenities. Residents can enjoy various local attractions including three pubs—The Hoop, The Bear, and The Bakers Arms—as well as a village shop, post office, restaurant, primary school, and coffee shop. Noteworthy landmarks such as the historic Stock windmill and Greenwoods Spa and Hotel add to the area’s charm. For those commuting to London or exploring nearby areas, convenient access to rail services is available at nearby Ingatestone station on the Great Eastern Main Line and Billericay station on the Shenfield-Southend line. This property not only offers potential for transformation but also benefits from its prime location amidst community amenities and transport links.
