Rawreth Lane, Rayleigh, SS6 9RR

Finding a property with approximately 1.75 acres of land in Rayleigh is rare enough.

Finding one with an existing detached home, potential for further development and a location that keeps you connected to everything the town has to offer makes this an opportunity worth exploring.

Situated along Rawreth Lane, this property occupies an extensive and unusually shaped plot extending a considerable distance behind the existing house.

With approximately 1.75 acres in total, the land offers a level of space and flexibility that is increasingly difficult to find in this part of Essex. The location is a big part of the appeal.

Rawreth Lane provides convenient access to Rayleigh High Street, local schools, supermarkets and leisure facilities, while Rayleigh railway station offers direct services into London Liverpool Street.

The A127 and A130 are also within easy reach, making this a well-connected position for those travelling across Essex or into London.

Yet, despite these everyday conveniences, the land stretches away from the road towards open countryside, offering a very different setting to what you might expect from a property within Rayleigh.

The possibilities here are what make this property particularly interesting. For someone looking to create their long-term family home, the existing detached property offers a starting point.

Currently arranged over two floors, it provides three bedrooms, two reception rooms, a spacious kitchen, conservatory, bathroom and separate WC.

There is considerable scope to modernise, reconfigure or potentially extend the accommodation, subject to the necessary permissions.

For those with ambitions beyond the existing house, the land opens up further possibilities.

The current owners have already explored a number of potential development options and commissioned architectural drawings illustrating how parts of the site might be used for additional residential accommodation.

These include concepts for new homes towards the rear of the plot.

An access route from an adjoining road leads towards the rear section of the land, creating another possibility to investigate when considering its future use.

The owners have not submitted a planning application for the proposed development concepts.

The drawings are illustrative only, with any future development subject to obtaining the necessary planning permissions and consents.

Of course, development is only one direction a new owner might explore.

The opportunity to retain and improve the existing home while enjoying such a substantial amount of land could be equally appealing.

From creating a larger family home to making better use of the gardens and outdoor space, there is plenty of room to consider different ideas.

Offered for sale with no onward chain , this is a property where the overall opportunity extends far beyond the existing accommodation.

The house, the location and, above all, the land need to be considered together.

Opportunities involving plots of this scale in Rayleigh do not come along often, and we would encourage interested buyers to explore what this property could offer them. EPC Rating: D
