4 bed detached house for sale

Apton Hall Road, Rochford SS4

A rare and exciting opportunity to acquire a characterful four-bedroom detached farmhouse set within approximately five acres of land. Tucked away from the road and accessed via a striking private driveway, this unique home enjoys peace, privacy, and far-reaching views across open farmland.

The grounds feature a number of versatile outbuildings—ideal for storage, workshops, or potential conversion (subject to planning)—as well as a charming orchard that enhances the property's rural appeal.
