Summary - 39, Morrab Gardens IG3 9HG
4 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Period bungalow with extension potential, close to Elizabeth Line and good schools.
Four bedrooms across chalet-style layout, approx. 1,658 sq ft
Set on a pleasant residential street in the Bungalow Estate area, this four-bedroom semi-detached chalet bungalow blends period character with clear potential. The house retains original features such as stained glass windows and exposed brickwork, while offering an average-sized footprint (approximately 1,658 sq ft) and a decent plot with front and rear gardens.
Practical benefits include freehold tenure, mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and excellent transport links via the Elizabeth Line. The property has already been extended into the loft and to the rear, and there is further scope to extend subject to planning (STPP), making it appealing to families seeking extra space or investors aiming to add value through modernisation.
Buyers should note material considerations: there is a single bathroom for four bedrooms, parts of the house will benefit from updating and improved insulation (walls are solid brick, assumed uninsulated), and the council tax band is above average (Band E). Crime levels are average for the area. These facts make the house a solid renovation project rather than a turnkey move-in for larger households.
Overall, this property suits first-time buyers wanting room to grow, growing families who value schools and local amenities, or investors targeting uplift through refurbishment and extension. The home offers genuine period charm and convenient local services, balanced by realistic renovation work to unlock its full potential.
