Rayleigh Avenue

A rare opportunity to acquire a substantial four-bedroom detached home occupying an exceptionally generous and private corner plot in a leafy, semi-rural setting on the Rayleigh/Eastwood borders. Set behind mature screening and surrounded by established greenery, the property enjoys an unusually private position with a long rear garden, extensive driveway, attached garage and additional access from the Disraeli Road side.
It is the plot, setting and sense of space that immediately distinguish this home, offering a level of individuality increasingly difficult to find locally.
The accommodation is substantial and highly versatile, with two reception rooms, two conservatory-style garden rooms, a ground-floor fourth bedroom/study and bathroom, three further bedrooms upstairs and an impressive principal bedroom opening directly onto its own private covered balcony overlooking the garden.
The house offers an excellent opportunity for a purchaser to modernise and personalise a substantial, highly individual family home around its remarkable plot. Occupying an unusually generous and private corner position, with additional access from the Disraeli Road side, the side and rear land provides valuable extra space and considerable longer-term scope and potential, subject to all necessary planning consents.

Set on a substantial and private corner plot, the home is surrounded by mature trees and established planting, with a long rear garden creating a wonderfully secluded setting. To the front is an extensive private driveway providing generous off-street parking and access to the attached garage. The corner configuration, generous side and rear land, together with additional access from the Disraeli Road side, give the plot a particularly distinctive character. Further storage units/sheds are positioned towards the rear of the plot. The side and rear land will be a real asset to purchasers considering the property's longer-term potential, providing valuable additional space and flexibility around the home.

Location

Rayleigh Avenue enjoys a leafy, semi-rural setting on the borders of Rayleigh and Eastwood, combining privacy and greenery with excellent everyday convenience. Woodland, open countryside and established residential lanes give this pocket of the area a quieter, more spacious feel, while Rayleigh, Eastwood and Leigh-on-Sea remain within easy reach. Rayleigh town centre and station provide shopping, restaurants and London connections, with local amenities, bus routes and road links towards the A127 also readily accessible. For buyers wanting a more private lifestyle surrounded by greenery without sacrificing convenience, this is a particularly appealing location.

School Catchments

Families are well served by a choice of schools across both Rayleigh and Eastwood, with Grove Wood Primary School and Edwards Hall Primary School among the nearby primary options and The FitzWimarc School and The Eastwood Academy among the nearby secondary choices.

Agents Notes: Japanese Knotweed

A small area of Japanese knotweed, measuring approximately 1m x 1m, has been identified within a planted border in the rear garden, approximately 14 metres from the nearest habitable part of the property. A professional treatment and monitoring programme is currently in place with Knotweed Services (UK) Ltd, with a 10-year warranty to be provided following completion of the monitoring programme.
