Chain-free two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow
Quiet, single-storey living on a wide plot in popular Wickford: this semi-detached bungalow offers practical, low-rise accommodation for someone looking to downsize or simplify. The property is chain-free with a guide price of £350,000–£375,000, generous off-street parking and a private rear garden — useful for pets, children or straightforward outdoor upkeep.
Internally there are two double bedrooms, a single bathroom, a small modern-looking kitchen and a utility space. At about 614 sq ft the layout is compact and straightforward; bright windows and a private position give good natural light and a peaceful feel. Fast broadband, excellent mobile signal and a 30-minute mainline rail link to London make the location convenient for commuters.
The house was built in the mid-20th century and retains solid-brick construction. Some elements are dated and will benefit from updating: cabinet fronts, finishes and potentially thermal upgrades (solid walls: assumed no cavity insulation). The double glazing installation date is unknown, and buyers should factor in possible modernisation costs and checks on services.
Nearby amenities include good-rated primary schools within walking distance, local shops, a bus stop and very low neighbourhood crime. Council Tax Band C and freehold tenure make running costs straightforward. This bungalow suits a buyer seeking a low-maintenance, single-storey home with scope to improve energy efficiency and cosmetic finishes over time.
