Description

This end-of-terrace residence in Hornchurch offers a fantastic opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant potential for personalization and expansion. Set on a substantial plot, the home provides ample space for a growing family or individuals seeking more room to breathe. While it requires some modern updates, the layout lends itself well to renovation, allowing new owners to stamp their identity on every corner. The ground floor features a spacious living room with an inviting bay window and a charming fireplace that brings character to the space. The kitchen, designed with practicality in mind, offers generous worktop areas and an adjoining utility room. Transitioning into the garden room, currently utilized as a dining area, you can enjoy natural light flooding through French doors that open onto the garden—ideal for hosting gatherings or relaxing. The first floor accommodates three of the four bedrooms, providing flexibility for use as additional sleeping quarters or even as office spaces. A well-appointed family bathroom serves this level. The top floor is dedicated to the primary bedroom with built-in wardrobes and its own private bathroom—creating a serene retreat away from the busy spaces below. Prospective buyers may explore development opportunities as previous planning permission was granted (now lapsed) for two-storey side and single-storey rear extensions, offering the potential to significantly enhance living space (subject to local approval). For further information, consultation of the Havering planning portal is recommended. Outside, you'll discover a spacious garden that’s perfect for both leisure and entertaining. A decking area directly outside of the garden room invites al fresco dining during warmer months while the expansive lawn bordered by mature shrubs offers privacy and tranquility. The garden also features a charming summer house, which can serve multiple purposes from creative studio to relaxation space, along with an additional outbuilding currently used for storage. Accessibility is enhanced with off-road parking and a double garage at the front of the property. The location boasts numerous local amenities including shops, dining options, and schools. For nature lovers, nearby Harold Wood Park offers extensive green spaces for recreation and relaxation. Transport links are convenient too with Harold Wood and Gidea Park stations providing access via the Elizabeth Line to Central London, complemented by easy access roads including A127, A12, and M25.
