Positioned in the attractive village of Hockley,
Folly Road is an impressive family home
with three-storeys of luxuriously-appointed
accommodation.

The spacious reception hall has
the hallmarks of a light-filled atrium offering a
welcoming sense of arrival with glimpses to the
landings above and to the glazed wine storage
housed beneath the staircase. The ground floor
accommodation also comprises three reception
rooms including an elegant drawing room, a
sitting room and a formal dining room, ideal
setting for family entertaining. Of a particular
note is the kitchen/breakfast room fitted with
sleek, white cabinetry, rich-toned splashbacks
and stone work surfaces, featuring a large island
unit with breakfast bar, along with a length of
units which form a subtle divide to the adjoining
family area. Completing the ground floor is a
cloakroom and a useful utility room.

To the first floor there are four beautifully appointed en suite bedrooms, including a
principal room with doors to a south-facing
balcony, a dressing room and a stylish en suite
bathroom with contemporary tub. A further
spacious bedroom enjoys a private setting at
the top of the house, with skylights allowing
light to flood inside, and a deluxe bathroom
is conveniently en suite. An upper level sitting
room is reached via a spiral staircase and
provides a versatile-use setting with options
to provide a snug, cinema room or perhaps a
games room for leisure times.

Folly Road is approached via a red-brick
wall with a secured gated entry which opens
onto the driveway offering parking space for
several cars and provides the access to the
garage. The beautifully laid to lawn gardens
with attractively-planted borders, high quality
hedging, a variety of mature trees creates a
wonderful sense of seclusion and provides the
access to the rear paved terrace with a pergola,
which offers opportunities for entertaining,
dining and relaxation in this splendid outside
setting.

The large village of Hockley is situated to the
south of vibrant Chelmsford and the north of
the charming seaside town of Southend. Local
amenities provide for everyday needs, with
Rayleigh, Westcliff and Southend catering for a
broader range of leisure, retail and educational
facilities, and the grammar schools in both
Westcliff and Southend being particularly wellregarded.

The railway station offers regular
services to London Liverpool Street (from 45
minutes), whilst road-users have easy access
to the M25 for connections to the major road
network and Southend Airport caters for travel
further afield.

    Broadband speed is measured in megabits per second, with the number returned showing how fast the connection is. Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on April 1, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
    Enhanced: Full bars, likely to have good coverage indoors and to receive an enhanced data rate to support multimedia services
