Spacious single-storey home with major extension or redevelopment potential.
Approximately 0.45 acre plot ideal for redevelopment (STPP)
Chain-free freehold; vacant possession possible
Double garage and wide driveway parking
Mature, private gardens with greenhouse and landscaping potential
Single-storey layout with three bedrooms and one bathroom

Higher local crime rate and above-average council tax to note
Set on approximately 0.45 acres, this roomy three-bedroom detached bungalow offers a rare development opportunity (STPP) in Little Canfield. The layout includes a living room, dining room, snug, kitchen/breakfast, utility, WC and family bathroom across a single level — an attractive blank canvas for extension, reconfiguration or replacement (subject to necessary planning permissions).
Outside, mature gardens, a double garage and wide driveway provide privacy, generous parking and scope for landscaping or additional buildings. The plot’s size and secluded setting make it well suited to a house extension, replacement dwelling or multi-use scheme for those able to secure planning consent.
Buyers should note material drawbacks: the house dates from the 1930–49 period with timber-frame walls assumed to lack insulation, single bathroom, oil-fired boiler/radiators, double glazing of unknown age and an EPC rating of E. The property requires modernization and investment to improve energy efficiency and internal finishes.
Practical positives include chain-free sale, freehold tenure, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, plus good local schools and commuter links to the A120/M11, Stansted Airport and nearby rail stations. The area is affluent but records higher local crime and above-average council tax — factors to consider for occupants or rental strategies.
