This detached bungalow offers comfortable single‑floor living with contemporary finishes and a generous, private garden backing directly onto Wivenhoe Woods. The layout centres on a 23ft living room, modern kitchen opening to a sunroom with roof lantern, three bedrooms including an en‑suite, and useful outbuilding space. Off‑street parking and a decent plot size add practical appeal.
The property sits in a very affluent, low‑crime area with excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — handy for remote working or staying connected. Local shops, good primary and secondary schools, the waterfront quay and the mainline station (fast links to London) are all within easy reach, making day‑to‑day life straightforward.
Buyers should note the construction era (1950s–1960s): cavity walls are as built and are assumed to lack modern wall insulation, and the installation date of the double glazing is unknown. Heating is by mains gas boiler and radiators; buyers may wish to survey for energy‑efficiency improvements or other maintenance.
Suitable for those seeking low‑rise, manageable accommodation — downsizers, retirees or anyone wanting single‑level living with a strong outdoor aspect. The property is freehold and offered with a complete chain, so a relatively straightforward purchase process is possible.
