This semi-detached two-bedroom bungalow sits on a generous plot in the heart of Hockley, offered with no onward chain. The property features a long, mainly lawned rear garden of approximately 90ft, a double-length detached garage and off-street parking for two to three vehicles — a rare combination for single-storey living.
Internally the layout includes a through lounge/diner, separate kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom with separate WC. The home requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic and practical upgrades will be needed to kitchens, bathroom fittings, ceilings and finishes. The building is solid brick (likely uninsulated) and currently has an EPC rating D.
For families this bungalow is well placed: primary and secondary schools are within walking distance and the mainline railway station and local shops are close by. The plot and double garage provide clear scope for extension, loft conversion (subject to consents) or a contemporary refurbishment to increase living space and value.
Important practical points: the property will need updating including potential insulation and energy-efficiency improvements, and some rooms are modest in scale. Council Tax Band C and freehold tenure make ongoing costs straightforward. This is a suitable purchase for a buyer wanting a renovation project with strong outdoor space and good local amenities.
