This detached five-bedroom chalet bungalow offers generous family space across nearly 1,955 sq ft, with a large living room, substantial kitchen and four bathrooms including three en-suites. The plot includes off-street parking for multiple cars, a decent rear garden with patio and deck, plus an outbuilding with electricity — practical for storage, a workshop or conversion subject to planning.
The property dates from the mid-20th century and has solid brick walls (likely uninsulated). Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators, and windows are double glazed though install date is unknown. These construction details mean upgrade and insulation works may be required to improve energy efficiency and running costs.
Location is central to Clacton town centre and the train station, with shops, schools and the seafront within walking distance. Local schools largely rate well, but the wider neighbourhood is classified as very deprived with higher crime levels; buyers should consider local context and security measures.
This property is being sold at auction via the modern method. Buyers must review the Buyer Information Pack and be aware of a non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £6,600 inc VAT) plus a pack fee. Allow time for mortgage lender review before bidding and factor auction-related costs into purchase calculations.
