At the heart of the home is an impressive 23ft+ living room, with French doors opening directly onto the garden and ample space for both relaxing and dining. The fitted kitchen offers excellent storage and worktop space, complemented by a separate utility room and pantry.

Exterior

The outside space is one of the defining features of this home. Set back from the road, the bungalow enjoys a wide frontage with a substantial block-paved driveway providing ample off-street parking. To the rear is an exceptionally large and established garden, something increasingly difficult to find this close to the centre of Hockley. Beginning with a generous patio area ideal for outdoor seating and entertaining, the garden continues into an extensive lawn surrounded by mature trees, shrubs and planting, creating a wonderfully private and peaceful setting. The sheer scale of the plot is immediately apparent from the aerial view and gives the property enormous long-term appeal. Subject to the necessary planning permissions, there may be exciting potential to extend, reconfigure or further develop the existing bungalow while retaining a fantastic garden.

Location

Mount Avenue offers a brilliant balance between convenience and tranquillity. Despite the bungalow's peaceful setting and remarkable garden, Hockley's everyday amenities are within comfortable walking distance, making this an excellent home for buyers wanting to rely less on the car. Hockley railway station is close by, providing direct services towards London Liverpool Street, while the shops, cafés, restaurants and everyday amenities around Spa Road and the village centre are also easily accessible. Nearby green spaces and countryside provide plenty of opportunities for walking and enjoying the outdoors. It is this combination that makes the location particularly attractive: you can enjoy the space, privacy and slower pace associated with bungalow living, while remaining exceptionally well connected to everything Hockley has to offer.

School Catchments

Families are particularly well served by the excellent choice of schooling nearby. Lift Plumberow, located on Hamilton Gardens, is approximately 0.2 miles away, while Lift Greensward on Greensward Lane is around 0.4 miles from the property and provides secondary and sixth-form education. The close proximity of both schools is another major advantage for families looking to settle in this highly convenient part of Hockley.
