Set on a wide plot in a quiet Hadleigh cul-de-sac, this two-bedroom detached bungalow is offered chain-free and ready for someone to modernise and personalise. The single-story layout, south-facing rear garden and attached garage will suit downsizers or buyers wanting accessible, low-rise living close to town amenities.
The property has a large, dual-aspect lounge/diner with sliding patio doors to the garden, a separate kitchen with conservatory access, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. Practical extras include a driveway with multiple off-street parking spaces, mains gas central heating, double glazing and fast broadband and mobile signal.
Important to note: the bungalow requires general modernisation throughout and has solid brick walls (assumed uninsulated), so buyers should allow budget for cosmetic and energy-efficiency upgrades. There is excellent scope to extend or reconfigure the single-storey footprint, subject to planning consent.
Location is a key strength — within easy walking distance of Hadleigh town centre, Morrisons, doctors and well-regarded primary and secondary schools. With no onward chain and a desirable south-facing garden, the property represents a straightforward project with good long-term potential in an affluent neighbourhood.
