It sits on the Astronaut Estate and offers far more living space than you might expect at first glance. Downstairs, you’ve got a large 26ft lounge/diner, a separate kitchen, an additional reception room which works brilliantly as a playroom, office, games room or snug, plus a conservatory and downstairs WC. Upstairs are three good-sized bedrooms and a modern four-piece family bathroom with a separate shower and freestanding bath. Outside, there’s a generous rear garden with patio and lawn, ideal for children, entertaining or simply enjoying the summer, as well as side access and a separate garage.
The location is a big part of the appeal. You’re close to local shops, parks and everyday amenities, with Cherry Orchard Jubilee Country Park nearby for walks and outdoor space, while the A127 and Southend Airport railway station make commuting and travelling straightforward. The estate itself has always been especially popular with families because of the combination of space, schools and quieter residential surroundings. Overall, it’s the sort of home that gives you proper family space, flexibility downstairs, a good garden and a strong Eastwood location, with plenty of scope to make it your own over time.
