DetachedDescription
A five-bedroom detached house on a plot backing onto horse paddocks and open countryside. Planning permission is stated to have been granted for a substantial redesign, with proposed accommodation including an open-plan kitchen and family room, a separate lounge and study, and five bedrooms with en-suite facilities across the upper floors. The plans also include rear-facing balconies overlooking the adjoining paddocks and countryside.
The property is offered as a development opportunity, with the existing house and the approved scheme requiring careful assessment before purchase. Planning reference 25/01402/FULH is given as Southend City Council. Further details and viewings are available through 1st Call Sales & Lettings.

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
42out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a potential canvas for a substantial family-home project: the listing says permission has been granted for a five-bedroom redesign, and the plot backs onto paddocks and open countryside. The existing exterior and overgrown front approach look dated, while the CGI shows the proposed scheme rather than the current house; the interior condition cannot be assessed from the available images.
At £600,000, value versus local £/sqf cannot be judged yet because the floor area is missing. The score is therefore a low overall opportunity at present, with the project’s appeal resting on the setting and the scope of the consented design. Verify the planning permission and the feasibility of carrying it out before proceeding.
Key opportunities
- Explore the stated consent for a five-bedroom redesign, including the proposed open-plan family space and en-suite bedrooms.
- Make the most of the plot backing onto horse paddocks and open countryside, with proposed rear-facing balconies oriented towards the outlook.
- Clear and tidy the overgrown front garden and paved approach; the existing house also has an attached garage.
Key risks
- Confirm the planning consent, its conditions and the practical feasibility of implementing the proposed design.
- The interior condition cannot be assessed from the available images, so the full scope of work remains uncertain.
