Summary - 1, LEA CLOSE, BRAINTREE CM7 3YP
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Compact over‑55s bungalow with garage, conservatory and no onward chain.
Two-bedroom single-storey bungalow on a corner plot
A compact two-bedroom bungalow on a corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, offered with no onward chain and suited to over-55s seeking single-storey living. The property includes a detached garage with electric roller door, off-street parking and a low-maintenance rear garden with a timber shed. The conservatory off the lounge boosts light and extends living space into the garden.
Practicalities are straightforward: the lease is stated as 99 years and the property is leasehold. Annual charges are significant — combined service charge and ground rent are currently quoted at £2,400 each — so buyers should check final management and charge details before committing. Council tax is described as affordable and mains services are connected.
Internally the bungalow is modest in scale (circa 579 sq ft) and will suit downsizers or investors wanting a low-maintenance rental in Braintree. There are some cosmetic and maintenance items: the kitchen shows discolouration and staining and the boiler area needs attention. The bungalow is presented as a practical, single-storey home rather than a turnkey, modern finish.
Location benefits include easy walking access to local shops, good commuter links via Braintree station to London Liverpool Street, and quick road access to the A120 and M11. Note the local area crime level is recorded as high; prospective buyers should factor local safety and management arrangements into their decision.
