Set on a generous plot on Colchester Road, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers single-level living with modern comforts and scope to personalise. The interior benefits from abundant natural light — skylights in the hall and kitchen and French/bi-fold doors linking living spaces to the substantial rear garden. A large living room, modern kitchen and two bathrooms make the layout practical for downsizers or buyers seeking a comfortable long-term home.
Built in the 1980s and double-glazed after 2002, the house is well insulated and heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators; the current EPC rating is C. Parking is straightforward with an integral garage and ample off-street driveway space. Broadband speeds are fast and mobile signal is excellent, useful for home working, and the area is affluent with low crime and good nearby leisure amenities.
The property does require normal updating in places and the garden is described as unrenovated — there is clear potential for landscaping or extension (subject to checks). Buyers should note services and appliances have not been tested and a full survey is recommended to confirm condition and any remedial work.
Local schools rated Good and plentiful community facilities add to the appeal for those staying local or moving to a quieter suburb. Freehold tenure and no flood risk further strengthen the practical case for purchase while the traditional bungalow layout will particularly suit those wanting all accommodation on one level.
