Summary - DUBETT IVY LODGE ROAD GREAT HORKESLEY COLCHESTER CO6 4EN
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Spacious single‑storey home with large garden and conversion potential.
Detached bungalow on approx. 0.25 acre plot (sts)
Set back on Ivy Lodge Road in desirable Great Horkesley, this detached bungalow sits on approximately 0.25 acres (sts) and offers a peaceful village setting with mature tree screening and a stream along the rear boundary. The heart of the home is a bright open-plan living and dining room with high ceilings, wide glazed folding doors and tiled flooring that open directly to a raised terrace and large lawn — a layout that suits relaxed family life and garden-focused entertaining.
The accommodation currently provides two double bedrooms, including a large main bedroom created by combining two original rooms; this can be reconfigured back to a three-bedroom layout if required. The kitchen is neatly arranged with integrated appliances and direct access to the driveway for practical day-to-day use. A well-appointed family bathroom with freestanding bath and separate walk-in shower completes the internal space, together with a separate cloakroom and useful built-in storage.
Outside, the substantial rear garden, long shingled driveway and additional hardstanding give excellent parking and outdoor space for a wide range of uses. A sizeable outbuilding/workshop offers strong storage and conversion potential subject to consent. The property is freehold, benefits from double glazing (install date unknown) and is heated via an air-source heat pump and radiators.
Notable practical points: the house was constructed in the mid-20th century and shows mixed ceiling heights and modest room sizing in some areas; some updating or refurbishment may be desired to suit modern tastes. There is a single family bathroom only. Council tax is above average. Any work to the outbuilding or significant garden development will require the appropriate planning consents and statutory checks.
Overall, this bungalow will suit buyers seeking a quiet, well-located village home with a large private plot and flexible layout — families who value outdoor space and potential to adapt internal rooms will find particular appeal.
