Description

This two-bedroom detached bungalow offers an excellent canvas for buyers eager to personalize a home suited to modern living. While requiring comprehensive modernization throughout, the property is well-sized and features a layout ideal for contemporary use once updated. The spacious lounge/diner serves as the heart of the home, presenting abundant space for relaxation and entertainment, enhanced by patio doors that extend to the rear garden—a perfect setting for summer gatherings. The kitchen, though functional, provides further access to the garden and offers ample room for appliances, making it a practical area with significant potential for redesign into a stylish culinary space. Both generous double bedrooms can cater to various needs, whether as sleeping quarters, guest rooms, or even a home office. A three-piece family bathroom completes the internal layout. The external offering includes a large rear garden that promises privacy and opportunities for landscaping enhancements or outdoor arrangements—ideal for creating your own personal retreat. To the front, off-street parking is available via a shared driveway, with potential options to establish a private driveway pending necessary approvals. Located conveniently close to Southend Airport and local shopping amenities at Southend Airport Retail Park, with excellent transport links nearby providing easy access to London and Southend city centre, this property represents an ideal investment opportunity for commuters looking to add value through renovation.
