Description
Set within approximately one acre in the highly sought-after village of Stock, this substantial detached residence presents a rare and exciting opportunity for refurbishment, redevelopment, or potential multi-unit development (subject to planning permission).
Extending to nearly 3,000 sq ft, the existing property is approached via a private, tree-lined driveway, offering a wonderful sense of seclusion and maturity. The house itself is surrounded by established gardens with an abundance of specimen trees, creating a tranquil, semi-rural setting while remaining within easy reach of village amenities. It has far reaching countryside views at the rear.
The current accommodation is generous in scale, with a traditional layout and integral garage, offering clear scope for modernisation and reconfiguration. However, it is the plot that truly sets this property apart. The expansive grounds provide significant potential for those looking to create a bespoke family home, undertake a comprehensive redevelopment, or explore the possibility of building two or three dwellings, subject to the necessary consents.
Stock remains one of Essex’s most desirable villages, known for its charming green, popular public houses, boutique shops, and excellent transport links into Chelmsford and London.
Opportunities of this nature—combining size, location, and development potential—are seldom available, making this an exceptional proposition for developers, investors, or buyers seeking a long-term but unique project in a prime village setting.
