This well-presented three-bedroom detached bungalow delivers comfortable single-level living on a sought-after Rayleigh road, minutes from the High Street and local schools. The layout includes a generous living room with a feature log burner, a modern fitted kitchen and a sun room that overlooks a private, west-facing rear garden — ideal for afternoon and evening sun.
Externally the plot offers a gated block-paved driveway, carport and an attached garage/store plus a neatly landscaped garden with patio seating and mature borders. The property is offered with no onward chain and presents a straightforward move-in opportunity for downsizers or small families wanting proximity to amenities without compromising privacy.
There is clear potential to extend or reconfigure the single-storey footprint (subject to planning permission), which could increase living space or add value. Buyers should note the house dates from the 1930s–1940s with solid brick walls (likely no cavity insulation) and a single modern bathroom; consider potential insulation and energy-efficiency upgrades when budgeting.
Practical benefits include mains gas central heating, double glazing and excellent mobile/broadband connectivity. Council tax sits above local average — factor this into running costs. Overall this bungalow offers quiet, low-stairs living in an affluent, convenient neighbourhood with sensible scope for future improvement.
