Set on a generous plot in the quiet village of Abberton, this detached four-bedroom bungalow offers single-storey living with scope to update and personalise. The roomy lounge/diner, linked by a feature arch, creates a sociable heart for entertaining, while the plot includes a powered double garage and mature landscaping including a pond. Vacant possession makes it ready for immediate occupation or refurbishment to increase value.
Built in the late 1960s–1970s with cavity-filled walls and double glazing (installation date unknown), the property is structurally typical of its era and presents clear potential for modernisation. There are two bathrooms (one bathroom plus separate WC noted), and the layout suits buyers wanting all accommodation on one level — attractive for downsizers or those seeking long-term single-floor living.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, and convenient links to Colchester and local bus services. Note two important factual points: council tax is above average, and the listing contains mixed references to heating fuel (mains gas shown in data but an internal note refers to oil heating). Buyers should confirm the current heating system and service history. Overall, this bungalow is a solid, well-sited home with large-plot appeal and clear refurbishment upside.
