Set in prime Thorpe Bay with no onward chain, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers comfortable single-floor living and clear scope to increase space. The property sits on a large plot with a south-facing rear garden, attached garage and off-street parking — practical features for daily life and outdoor enjoyment.
Internally the layout provides two reception rooms and a single shower room, making the accommodation modest in footprint but versatile. Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and with double glazing added after 2002, the bungalow presents a straightforward renovation or modernisation project for buyers who want to personalise their home or add substantial living space (extensions subject to planning permission).
Highlights include freehold tenure, very low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — useful for working from home. The location sits within walking distance of local amenities, bus links and a mix of well-regarded schools, including an outstanding girls’ secondary nearby.
Important considerations: the property has only one bathroom and a modest internal size typical of bungalows, so buyers seeking more immediate space may need to plan an extension. Any enlargement will require planning approval. Overall this is a good choice for downsizers, families seeking single-level living with future expansion potential, or buyers looking for a refurbishment opportunity in a very affluent, low-risk area.
