This exceptional four-bedroom semi-detached family home, ideally positioned within a quiet cul-de-sac on Waldegrave Gardens, one of Upminster’s most sought-after residential turnings. Occupying a generous plot with a south-facing rear garden, ample driveway parking for up to four vehicles, and a garage, this character-filled home offers versatile family living with significant potential for further extension, subject to the necessary planning consents.
Having already been thoughtfully extended, the property now boasts four bedrooms, four reception areas, and an abundance of original features throughout. A particular highlight is the property’s cellar, accessed from both the dining room and the front entrance. Maintaining a constant temperature of approximately 12–14 degrees year-round, it provides the perfect environment for wine storage while also offering practical additional storage space.
Upon entering, you are immediately welcomed by an abundance of natural light, which flows effortlessly through the home from the rear-facing garden doors. The ground floor offers exceptionally versatile accommodation, including a charming lounge with original features, a separate dining room leading through to a cosy sitting room, and a mezzanine-level office/playroom providing flexible space for modern family life.
At the heart of the home lies the impressive open-plan kitchen and family living area, complete with a breakfast bar and direct access to the rear decking and garden, creating the ideal space for both everyday living and entertaining. Further enhancing the ground floor accommodation are a convenient utility room, downstairs WC, and integral garage.
The first-floor landing is spacious and provides access to a substantial boarded loft space, offering excellent potential for a loft conversion, subject to planning permission. The principal bedroom benefits from fitted integrated storage and a private en-suite bathroom. Three further well-proportioned bedrooms are served by a modern family bathroom.
Externally, the beautifully maintained south-facing rear garden enjoys complete privacy and is unoverlooked. A large decking area provides the perfect setting for outdoor dining and entertaining, while mature trees and established shrubbery create a peaceful and secluded environment. To the rear of the garden is a versatile outbuilding with power and storage, currently utilised as a home gym but equally suited as a home office, garden bar, studio, or hobby room.
Waldegrave Gardens enjoys a highly desirable position within one of Upminster’s premier residential locations, minutes from Upminster Golf Course, just 0.3 miles from Upminster Station and Upminster town centre, providing excellent transport links into London via the District Line and C2C services, alongside a wealth of shops, cafés, restaurants, and local amenities. The property is also ideally located for families, being just 0.8 miles from Sacred Heart of Mary Girls’ School, approximately 1 mile from Coopers’ Company and Coborn School, and 1 mile from Hall Mead School, all of which are highly regarded local schools.
This wonderful family home combines character, space, versatility, outstanding school catchments, and future potential, making it a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial family residence in one of Upminster’s most desirable cul-de-sac settings.
