About
Set back behind a wide paved frontage, 53 Dering Crescent is a genuinely exciting opportunity in Leigh-on-Sea.
Already offering well-proportioned, single-level accommodation, the real headline here is the plot size and potential.
With a large rear garden, a conservatory extension and an attached double garage, this is the sort of home buyers look for when they want to create something special, whether that is reconfiguring, extending or modernising over time (subject to the usual planning consents).
Tenure: Freehold Council Tax Band: C Measurements Lounge - 18'4 x 11'8 Kitchen - 10'2 x 8'7 Dining Area - 13'0 x 10'3 Conservatory - 15'9 x 8'9 Garage - 18'6 x 15'1 Bedroom One - 13'4 x 9'8 Bedroom Two - 9'5 x 8'8 Bathroom - 7'8 x 5'5 Utility Room - 10'8 x 4'6 Interior The accommodation flows from a central hallway, with a spacious lounge providing a great everyday living space.
There is a separate kitchen which links neatly to the dining area, and beyond that a conservatory which enjoys views across the rear garden.
Two bedrooms sit to the front of the home, complemented by a family bathroom and additional storage.
For anyone looking to improve, the layout offers plenty of scope to modernise and potentially open up or rework the kitchen and living spaces, all while retaining comfortable room proportions.
Exterior To the front, a large driveway creates a strong first impression and offers parking for multiple vehicles. The attached double garage adds real practicality.
The rear garden is the standout: a large, established plot with plenty of room for landscaping, entertaining, or extending the footprint (STPP).
It is a brilliant blank canvas with the kind of scale that is becoming increasingly hard to find.
Location Tucked away within a quiet residential crescent on the Eastwood side of Leigh-on-Sea, Dering Crescent is ideal for anyone who wants everyday convenience while still enjoying a calm, settled setting.
Eastwood Park is close by, offering a great stretch of open green space with playing fields, children’s play areas and a BMX or skate facility, perfect for dog walks, fresh air and relaxed weekends.
For day-to-day essentials, there are plenty of local shops and services along Rayleigh Road, including the Tesco Express at 385–397 Rayleigh Road, making top-up shops quick and easy.
Commuters are well catered for too, with regular bus routes nearby and straightforward access to the wider road network, including the A127, providing direct links towards London and across South East Essex.
School Catchments For families, the location is particularly strong, with Edwards Hall Primary School on Macmurdo Road nearby, plus The Eastwood Academy on Rayleigh Road also within easy reach.
