An exciting and rare opportunity to acquire this bespoke unfinished Tudor style property located on Eastwood Old Road. This distinctive property has striking herringbone brickwork and traditional oak beam detailing, offering a strong basis for a truly unique home. Currently presented in shell-like condition, the property remains incomplete and offers a blank canvas for those wishing to complete the project to their own specifications and taste. The house is supplied by a nearby solar farm which is included within the sale. Eastwood Old Road is within close proximity to a range of local amenities, including schools, parks, shops, and healthcare services. Pound Wood and Nature Reserve are nearby offering excellent green space for walking, wildlife and outdoor recreation. The area also has strong transport links making it an ideal location for families. The surrounding road network (A127/A130) also offers easy access to Southend and wider Essex. The total area extends to 0.88 hectares (2.18 acres). The Seller has advised that the land includes Tree Preservation Orders as designated by Castle Point District Council. The property will be sold subject to an overage clause of 15%, further details will be available within the legal pack which can be downloaded from the Clive Emson website. We have been advised by the Executor that although the original approved plans included a double garage, the former owner converted this space into a kitchen, believing it would be a more practical use. No application for retrospective planning permission was submitted for this alteration. An Enforcement Notice has since been issued by Castle Point Borough Council. The notice requires that plans be submitted to ensure the property complies with the approved plans, including the submission of plans for the installation of a driveway to the rear of the property. These matters must be addressed by 23rd October 2026. In addition, the property includes a rear balcony at roof level, which remains unfinished. The Enforcement Notice also requires the submission of a retrospective planning application in respect of this balcony. All interested parties are advised to consult the legal pack plus make their own enquiries, relying on their own investigations prior to bidding.
