Set on a generous corner plot in central West Mersea, this three-bedroom detached chalet-style bungalow offers easy, single-level living with added first-floor space. The property benefits from wraparound gardens, two driveways and a garage — practical for car owners and gardeners who value privacy and outdoor space.
Inside, two reception rooms and a flexible layout create scope for relaxed living or a home office. Natural light fills the contemporary living room and conservatory; the principal bedroom on the first floor includes eaves storage. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators, and the property currently holds an Energy Performance Rating of C.
The house is well presented but shows signs of normal post-war era construction (built c.1976–82). Double glazing is fitted though the installation date is unknown; some cosmetic modernisation would allow a buyer to personalise finishes and potentially increase value. Council tax is above average for the area.
Practical positives include very low local crime, excellent mobile signal and convenient village amenities and schools nearby. Broadband speeds are average; there is no flooding risk. For a downsizing household or someone seeking a comfortable, low-maintenance coastal base, this property combines space, parking and garden privacy with clear potential to modernise.
