Description

This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow is situated in a tranquil area, offering an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. While it requires some work, the property is well-positioned close to essential amenities such as shops, schools, and transport links to Colchester and London, making it ideal for potential buyers looking to enhance value or create a comfortable home. The entrance leads into a welcoming porch before entering the hall with access to various rooms. The spacious lounge features a full-height double glazed window and a charming tiled fireplace, while a sun lounge offers additional light but will need glass replacement. The kitchen includes essential appliances and ample cupboard space but would benefit from modernisation. Two bedrooms provide good proportions, although updates would improve their appeal. The bathroom has basic facilities but could be refreshed for better functionality. Outside, the front garden is mainly lawned with off-road parking and a carport, while the rear garden also features established borders and a shed. Overall, this property presents considerable potential for those willing to invest in its transformation.
