About this property

GUIDE PRICE £475,000 - £500,000

A landmark home in the heart of Rochford Market Square, this Grade II listed, 18th Century, semi detached house offers a rare blend of heritage, space and character. Once the National Westminster Bank over half a century ago, later known locally as The Old Watch House, and eventually cherished as a family residence, it stands today as one of South Street’s most historically significant properties; beautifully preserved and thoughtfully lived in across generations.

Figures from MHCLG (Open Government Licence v3): the average bill for each band across Rochford, including the typical parish precept, so a parish's own bill can differ a little. Discounts lower the bill, such as 25% off for an adult living alone.
