Description
Internally, the house is in need of full modernisation throughout, but the fundamentals are strong: well-sized reception space, a separate dining area, three bedrooms upstairs including a principal bedroom with en suite, and a mature rear garden with genuine potential to extend further to the rear subject to planning permission.

Interior
The ground floor opens with an entrance porch leading into a central hallway and access through to the main reception space. The lounge is a generous room with a wide front-facing window, while the kitchen sits to the rear. A separate dining room provides excellent versatility and could just as easily serve as a home office, playroom or additional sitting room, with a ground floor bathroom completing the accommodation.
Upstairs, the benefits of the double storey extension are immediately apparent, creating three double bedrooms including a particularly spacious principal bedroom with an en suite. The remaining bedrooms are well proportioned and ideal for family life, guests or working from home.
Throughout, the property now requires full refurbishment, offering a superb blank canvas for a buyer to modernise and personalise, with the opportunity to rework layouts, finishes and specification to suit their own style.
Exterior
The plot is a genuine standout. To the front, a wide frontage provides driveway parking and excellent scope to create additional off street parking if required, with access through to the attached garage which could lend itself to conversion (subject to the usual consents) if additional living space was ever required. The rear garden is impressively spacious and increasingly hard to come by, offering superb potential for landscaping, outbuildings or a further extension to the rear, subject to the usual planning permissions.
Location
Heycroft Road is set within a well regarded pocket of Hockley, conveniently positioned for the village’s day to day amenities including local shops and convenience stores, along with popular places to eat and drink such as The Spa on Southend Road. Hockley railway station is within easy reach and lies on the Shenfield to Southend line, providing direct services towards London Liverpool Street and strong wider connections for commuters. For outdoor living, Hockley Woods is a real highlight locally, offering over 130 hectares of woodland walks, while Clements Hall Leisure Centre is close by with excellent facilities including a gym and swimming pools.
School Catchments
The property is well located for highly regarded local primary and secondary schooling in Hockley, making it a strong option for those prioritising catchment-led home moves, with Westerings Primary Academy and Greensward Academy both within easy reach.
