This double-fronted chalet bungalow sits on a large, established plot in central Benfleet, within easy walking distance of the station and High Street. The layout provides flexible family space across two levels: two reception rooms, a conservatory, five bedrooms (four to five) and substantial loft/eaves storage. A rear balcony offers views towards the Thames Estuary and the south-facing garden delivers strong outdoor living potential.
The large plot and generous internal footprint create clear scope for extension or reconfiguration (subject to planning). The fully fitted kitchen and separate utility provide practical daily living, while the garage and front driveway offer convenient parking with potential to increase spaces. Nearby schools (Kents Hill and The King John School catchments) and very low local crime make this a sensible choice for families.
The property requires renovation throughout. Finishes are dated and accommodation would benefit from updating; there is only one full bathroom plus an upstairs WC. Buyers should factor renovation costs and council tax band E into budgets. For those wanting a project, the house provides substantial upside through modernisation or enlargement to create a larger family home, subject to necessary consents.
Offered freehold, this chalet will suit buyers seeking a roomy family home with a large garden and good transport links, or investors/developers prepared to renovate or extend to unlock greater value.
