Set within the coveted Burges Estate and offered with no onward chain, this substantial four-bedroom detached bungalow delivers single-level living on a large plot. The home has three reception rooms, two bathrooms and a garage with off-street parking for several vehicles — practical for downsizers who still need space for visitors or hobbies.
The large west-facing garden is a major asset, offering afternoon and evening sun and scope for landscaping, entertaining or an extension (subject to permissions). The property sits within easy walking distance of Thorpe Bay Broadway and the train station, plus local leisure facilities including Thorpe Hall Golf Club and the yacht and tennis clubs.
Internally the bungalow shows mid-century character but is dated in places and would benefit from modernisation and cosmetic updating to realise its full potential. Buyers should factor renovation and redecoration into their plans; there is clear scope to reconfigure or refresh the accommodation while retaining generous room proportions.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no flood risk, fast broadband, low local crime and proximity to several well-rated primary and secondary schools. This home will suit a downsizing household seeking comfortable, single-storey living in a very affluent, seaside suburb, or a family wanting ground-floor convenience with potential to personalise.
