Description

This spacious four-bedroom detached family home presents an outstanding renovation opportunity for discerning buyers looking to imprint their personal style. While the property currently requires some updates, it offers a solid foundation with ample living space and desirable layout features. The generous front lounge is perfect for relaxation, while the separate dining room caters to family gatherings and entertaining. At the back, a bright conservatory opens up to the private garden, ready to serve as a versatile space for leisure or social events. The centrally located kitchen is functional but ripe for modernization, with possibilities for creating an open-plan design that aligns with contemporary living trends (subject to planning consent). Additional practical touches include a ground floor WC and internal access to the integral garage, which may also be suited for conversion into additional living space. On the upper floor, you will find four well-sized bedrooms that cater to families and working from home arrangements alike. The principal bedroom features its own en-suite shower room, ensuring convenience during busy mornings. A family bathroom serves the remaining rooms, complemented by built-in storage solutions. Outside lies a tranquil rear garden ideal for unwinding or entertaining guests. Notably, a separate outbuilding houses a jacuzzi and sauna room—a unique wellness feature that enhances this property's appeal. Situated in a quiet yet well-connected neighbourhood of Grays, Essex—famous for its accessibility with direct rail links into London—the location also benefits from local amenities and schools within easy reach. This property not only offers space and comfort but also promises potential value gain through thoughtful renovations.
