This single-storey, three-bedroom bungalow in Great Tey offers comfortable, low-step living on a generous plot — a good choice for downsizers seeking village life. The layout includes a living room, kitchen, sunroom and a principal bedroom with en-suite, arranged across an accessible single floor.
Outside, neat front and rear lawns, established borders and a patio area provide private outdoor space for gardening and entertaining. A driveway (and garage shown in images) provides convenient off-street parking. Ultrafast broadband is available and local mobile coverage is usable, making the house suitable for remote working or staying connected.
Practical details: the property is semi-detached, built in the late 1960s–1970s with filled cavity walls and double glazing fitted after 2002. Heating is via an oil-fired boiler (main fuel oil, not a community supply) and the cooker uses bottled gas — these running costs and ongoing oil maintenance should be considered. The home is freehold and has an affordable council tax band.
The bungalow sits in a quiet, affluent village with a primary school, church, pub and good road and rail links into Colchester. While largely well presented, the mid-20th-century construction and oil heating mean some buyers may wish to budget for modernization or heating conversion in future. Overall this is a solid, characterful bungalow offering easy single-level living in a desirable countryside setting.
