Set on a substantial, secluded plot just outside Frinton’s ‘Gates’, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers straightforward single-storey living with genuine downsizing potential. The house sits within a short walk of the town centre, seafront and mainline station, making daily errands and rail links convenient. It is offered with no onward chain, allowing a quick purchase for the right buyer.
Accommodation includes two double bedrooms, lounge with feature mantle, separate dining room and a long kitchen opening to the garden. There is a single shower room and useful built-in storage. The wide, east-facing rear garden and block‑paved driveway provide privacy and generous outdoor space — rare for this property type so close to local amenities.
The property requires significant refurbishment: cosmetic updating, garden clearance and likely services checks. The EPC is rated F and the marketing information contains mixed notes about gas connection; the listing also records boiler and radiators as the main heating. Buyers should budget for works and arrange a thorough survey.
This home will suit downsizers or purchasers seeking a single-storey property to modernise, investors prepared to refurbish, or anyone wanting a peaceful plot near Frinton town centre. Practical positives — freehold tenure, off-street parking and low local crime — balance the clear renovation requirement.
