This well-proportioned two-bedroom bungalow sits in a sought-after Thorpe Bay location, a short walk from the Broadway and mainline station. Single-level living, two generous reception rooms and a modern shower room make it comfortable and accessible for downsizers or those seeking long-term ground-floor accommodation.
The property sits on a large plot with a private west-facing rear garden of approximately 70ft, thoughtfully landscaped and ideal for entertaining or low-maintenance outdoor living. Off-street parking is generous thanks to a large paved driveway and a detached garage, a rare convenience in the area.
Constructed in the mid-20th century, the home is double glazed and centrally heated via a mains-gas boiler and radiators, but the cavity walls are uninsulated (as built). This presents clear potential to improve energy efficiency and reduce running costs with insulation upgrades. There is a single shower room and one bathroom, which should be considered if two-bathroom layouts are preferred.
Located in an affluent, low-crime neighbourhood with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, the bungalow is close to several well-rated primary and secondary schools and local amenities. Offered freehold with no flood risk, it represents an attractive, accessible option for those looking to downsize without leaving the area.
