Four bedrooms, garden and garage — ideal for buyers ready to modernise..
Chain-free four-bedroom bungalow with garage
A flexible four-bedroom bungalow in CT2, offered chain-free and with a garage and private rear garden. The property has an open-plan lounge/dining/kitchen with patio doors onto lawn and patio, plus a timber summer house — good for family living or downsizing with garden space. Double glazing was installed after 2002 and the home runs on mains gas with a boiler and radiators.
The layout was built in the late 1960s–1970s and rooms are generally modest in size with lower ceilings typical of the era. The interior will suit buyers willing to modernise: fixtures, finishes and some internal reconfiguration would unlock better use of the 960 sq ft footprint. There is only one shower room plus a separate WC, which may not suit larger households without alteration.
Location strengths include nearby primary and secondary schools with good Ofsted ratings and straightforward access to local shops and bus routes. Practical positives: freehold tenure, affordable council tax, no flood risk, and private garage parking. Important negatives to note: the property requires updating throughout, rooms are small with low ceilings, and the area records above-average crime levels — factors to weigh when considering refurbishment costs and security improvements.
