We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Situated in the heart of the highly sought-after village of Ingatestone, this attractive semi-detached home on Docklands Avenue presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious family property with exceptional scope for enhancement and future development, subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Offered to the market with no onward chain, the property is ideal for buyers seeking a straightforward purchase and the chance to create a home tailored to their own tastes and requirements.
The accommodation is well-proportioned throughout and currently arranged to provide generous living space across two floors.
The ground floor features a bright and expansive living room, a fitted kitchen, utility room, downstairs WC, and integral garage, offering excellent versatility for modern family living.
Upstairs, the property benefits from three good-sized bedrooms, a family bathroom, and additional WC facilities.
One of the standout features of this home is the substantial rear garden, providing an excellent outdoor space for entertaining, family enjoyment, or landscaping potential.
The sizeable frontage further enhances the property’s appeal, offering ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles in addition to the garage facilities.
The property also offers significant potential to extend and reconfigure, whether by enlarging the existing footprint, converting the garage, or creating additional living accommodation, all subject to obtaining the relevant planning consents.
This makes it an exciting proposition for growing families, developers, or purchasers looking to add value over time.
Perfectly positioned within easy reach of Ingatestone’s vibrant high street, mainline railway station, excellent local schooling, and a range of amenities, the property combines village charm with convenient commuter links into London.
A home with enormous potential in a prime central location, early viewing is strongly advised to fully appreciate the space, setting, and possibilities on offer.
Anti-Money Laundering Checks and Legal Support: A mandatory Anti-Money Laundering (AML) check is required on all buyers and sellers and is facilitated via our legal partner at a cost of £65 per property payable upon instruction.
The service also provides access to an unlimited legal advice helpline staffed by qualified solicitors to assist with any questions you may have during your moving journey, and Mover Protection which is designed to help recoup certain costs if your sale or purchase should fail to complete through no fault of your own (terms and limits apply).
