A well-proportioned detached bungalow in a peaceful cul-de-sac, this home suits downsizers or small families seeking single-storey living near Wivenhoe’s riverside amenities. The layout is flexible — currently three bedrooms with one used as a dining room — and the principal room sizes feel generous for a bungalow of this era. Double glazing (post-2002), filled cavity walls and mains gas central heating provide practical, energy-conscious benefits.
The bright sitting room and a large kitchen give comfortable day-to-day living, with a small conservatory offering direct access to a private, south-facing garden. The garden is low-maintenance with a paved patio, lawn and planted beds — good for relaxing or light entertaining. Off-street parking leads to a detached single garage, useful for storage or a workshop.
Practical considerations: accommodation includes a single family bathroom only, and the property dates from the 1950s–60s so some buyers may want cosmetic updating or modernisation to suit contemporary tastes. The sellers need to secure an onward purchase, which may affect timing. On the positive side, the bungalow is freehold, in a very affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and excellent mobile signal.
Location is a key strength: Milford Close is quietly positioned yet close to independent shops, cafés, and Wivenhoe station with direct links to London. Nearby schools include Millfields Primary (Outstanding) and several good secondary options, making the area attractive for buyers valuing community amenities and transport links.
