Description

A four-bedroom detached house on a plot of approximately 0.15 acres in Chigwell Park Estate, offered chain free. The listing states that planning permission has been granted either to replace the existing house with two four-bedroom semi-detached homes or to extend the current property. The proposed homes are described as having three levels, private off-street parking and private gardens, with internal areas of approximately 2,366 sq ft and 2,246 sq ft respectively. Their proposed layouts include open-plan kitchen, living and dining areas, separate reception rooms, utility rooms and multiple bathrooms. The property is within walking distance of Chigwell Central Line station and close to local shops, schools and other amenities. Planning documents are referenced on the Epping Forest planning portal under application EPF/1129/23. Buyers should independently confirm the permission, its status and conditions, and the relevant legal and building-control details with their advisers.

Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: LOW

At £1,150,000, the asking price works out at about £249 per sq ft, around 51% below the local average—a compelling entry point for a substantial Chigwell Park plot. The existing four-bedroom detached house offers a light-to-typical improvement canvas, while the mature, overgrown garden could be reshaped to make better use of the outdoor space.

The standout upside is the stated planning permission for either two substantial semi-detached homes or an extension to the existing house. Proposed plans are included, but buyers should verify the permission, conditions and scope with the local authority. The aerial photos show the plot and roof only, so the house’s interior condition still needs to be assessed in person.

Key opportunities

  • Acquire a large detached property at a substantial discount to the local £/sq ft average.
  • Explore the stated permission for two semi-detached homes or an extension, verifying the approved plans and conditions before proceeding.
  • Clear and rework the mature, overgrown garden to make more of the substantial plot.
