The award-winning Tom Ashwood & Co. are delighted to offer this substantial detached home with separate annex in Wickham Bishops. Set on one of the area’s most discreet residential roads, this substantial detached home occupies a private plot approaching 1.25 acres on Ishams Chase, a short, low-density cul-de-sac characterised by individually designed houses rather than estate-style development. Properties on the road rarely come to market, with many held by the same families for extended periods. The main house offers generous, well-proportioned accommodation and would now benefit from updating, presenting an opportunity for an incoming owner to rework and enhance the layout to suit long-term family living. Rather than a finished or over-specified interior, the property provides a strong base for improvement over time, in keeping with the scale and setting of the plot. A separate self-contained annex adds genuine flexibility and is well suited to multi-generational living, visiting family, extra bedrooms, or independent space for an older child, without compromising the privacy of the main house. The grounds are a particular feature, offering a high degree of seclusion, mature planting, woodlands, and a sense of space that is increasingly difficult to find within established villages. The plot allows for enjoyment as it stands, with scope to landscape or enhance further, subject to the usual consents. The site also benefits from an established planning history, with consent previously granted for a substantial replacement dwelling, highlighting the long-term potential of the plot, should a future owner wish to explore that route. Wickham Bishops is a highly regarded village known for its community feel and semi-rural setting, while remaining practical for everyday life. Local amenities include a village store, post office, tearoom, tennis courts and access to a network of countryside footpaths that form part of daily village life. Despite its peaceful setting, the property remains well connected, with convenient access to Witham station and regular direct services to London Liverpool Street, typically within 45 to 50 minutes. The A12 is also easily accessible for wider road connections. This is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial home on a generous plot, on one of the village’s most established roads, offering privacy, flexibility and the chance to create a long-term family home in a prime Essex village setting.
