Description

Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac within the sought-after Eastbourne area, this charming detached bungalow presents a prime investment opportunity. Featuring three spacious double bedrooms, including one that can easily function as a second reception room with access to the manageable garden through French doors, this property is suitable for families or individuals seeking extra space. The generous front lounge is filled with natural light, creating an inviting atmosphere, while the kitchen breakfast room, though in need of modernisation, offers ample size for potential enhancements. Occupying a sizeable plot, the home comes with plenty of parking options at the front and includes a detached garage for convenient storage solutions. Although the interior requires updating, this has been factored into the asking price, giving you the chance to personalise and upgrade according to your preferences. The bungalow benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas central heating, providing comfort throughout. Offered with no onward chain, it’s perfectly positioned near local amenities, transport links including bus routes and train stations. This property not only makes for an attractive family home but also serves as an exciting project for those looking to add value through renovations in a desirable location.
