Nestled in the charming hamlet of Navestock, just on the fringes of Brentwood, this mid-Victorian detached residence known as Marleys presents a remarkable opportunity for those looking to invest in a substantial property. Spanning approximately 7.5 acres, the estate features expansive lawns, mature woodlands, a swimming pool, and a tennis court that is in need of attention. Notably, the property comes with planning consent to build three detached residential homes from access at the top of the current driveway, making it an attractive proposition for developers or investors considering residential conversion.
Having been owned by the same family since the 1950s, this property is ripe for renovation. Although it remains in usable condition, there is considerable potential to transform its interior into an exquisite country home or possibly convert it into luxury apartments, subject to planning permission. The main house offers a grand entrance hall that connects various reception rooms along with a traditional kitchen and multiple secondary spaces such as a snug and utility room. The layout includes four bedrooms on the first floor and a self-contained flat on the second floor which could easily be integrated into the main living area.
The picturesque grounds enhance its appeal and include beautifully maintained gardens and ample parking via an impressive in-and-out driveway. Additional structures like a large outbuilding previously utilized for garaging add further possibilities for development or usage.
With easy access to Brentwood's amenities and excellent transport links to central London via Elizabeth Line services, Marleys combines tranquility with convenience—a prime candidate for renovation or redevelopment.
