A Charming Cottage-Style Home Full of Character, With (approx.) 22m Garden and No Onward Chain

If you're looking for a home full of charm and character, with nothing to hold up your move, this delightful two-bedroom, two-bathroom, cottage-style property could be just what you've been searching for.

A couple of small steps lead up to a paved front garden, so the house sits back a little from the road. The red brick and bay window give it a cottage feel from the moment you pull up.

The porch opens into the living room, where a character fireplace sits between arched alcove shelves. High ceilings and the bay window keep it light, and there's a stained-glass door as you come in.

The dining room has a second character fireplace and the stairs up to the first floor. There's plenty of room for a family-size dining table here. Whether it's Sunday lunch with the family or an evening entertaining friends, this is a lovely room to gather and spend time together.

The galley kitchen is a little compact, but it keeps the cottage character going with traditional-style units and a colourful tiled splashback.

Beyond the kitchen, a small lobby leads out to the garden and into the downstairs shower room. 

Upstairs, both bedrooms are doubles. The main bedroom at the front has two windows and its own character fireplace, while the second bedroom looks out over the back garden.

Completing the first floor is the spacious four-piece family bathroom, featuring both a bath and a separate shower cubicle, giving you the choice of a relaxing soak or a quick morning shower.

One of the real highlights of this property is its impressive rear garden, extending approximately 22 metres, with mature planting along the way and a patio at the far end for summer evenings. It’s north facing but being so long there’s nothing to block out the sunlight so you can enjoy it throughout the day. 

There are two sheds for the tools and bikes, and plenty of scope to shape the rest of the garden however you like.

This corner of Corringham has a lovely village feel, with Old Corringham and Fobbing close by and open countryside on the doorstep. 

Ace Crafts and Coffee is less than a five-minute walk down Fobbing Road, with Fobbing Recreation Ground close by, near the Farm Shop. 

Langdon Hills Country Park is a short drive away when you fancy a longer walk.

Corringham town centre and Lampits Hill cover the everyday shopping. Lakeside and Basildon are within easy reach for the bigger trips.

Stanford-le-Hope station is a short drive away, with C2C trains into London Fenchurch Street and out towards Southend. The 100, 200 and 201 buses link you to Basildon, Grays and Lakeside, and the A13 connects you to the M25.

Families have a selection of local schools to consider, including Corringham Primary School, Giffards Primary School and Graham James Primary Academy. Secondary education options include St Clere's School and Ortu Gable Hall School.

If you're searching for a property that offers something a little different from the ordinary, this charming cottage-style home certainly deserves a closer look.

With its traditional features, welcoming living spaces, generous rear garden and the added benefit of a no onward chain, there's plenty here to enjoy.
