Quiet Corner is a rare, chain-free detached bungalow positioned directly behind the shoreline, offering sweeping estuary views across to Harwich. The single-storey layout includes three double bedrooms, a lounge that opens to the rear garden and a generous garden room — ideal for relaxing with the water vista. The plot extends to over 120ft (subject to survey), creating a private, landscaped garden and ample off-road parking via a block-paved driveway and car port.
The property is best suited to buyers seeking easy, single-level living or those looking to downsize without losing outdoor space and views. The bungalow dates from the mid-20th century and retains period character, but would benefit from updating throughout; cosmetic and systems improvements would allow a new owner to personalise the space and add value. Heating is via electric storage heaters and the home is double glazed (installation date unknown).
Practical considerations: there is a single family bathroom and the house currently needs renovation in places. Broadband speeds are slow locally, though mobile signal is excellent. The location is peaceful and affluent, with very low crime and convenient village amenities, boating facilities and scenic walks; Ipswich amenities and rail links are also within easy reach.
Overall this is an attractive, low-risk seaside bungalow with exceptional estuary outlook and a large garden. It represents a strong opportunity for a downsizer or someone seeking a project with immediate lifestyle upside; budget for updating and modern heating/broadband improvements when assessing value.
