Description
This detached four-bedroom bungalow occupies a private, gated plot of approximately 0.38 acres and offers more than 2,000 sq ft of accommodation. The property is offered with no onward chain and is described as requiring refurbishment, providing scope for a buyer to update the interiors and garden.
The accommodation includes an entrance hall, a large living room, dining room, kitchen and utility room, four bedrooms, a family bathroom and two en-suite areas. One en-suite requires a shower suite to be installed. Outside, a long driveway provides parking and leads to a detached double garage. The grounds include mature trees, lawn and a private rear garden.
The property is within reach of Braintree town centre, the railway station and Braintree Shopping Village, with access to the A120 and routes towards Stansted Airport and Chelmsford. The listing notes that the private drainage system uses a septic tank shared with a neighbour.
WHOTS analysis
Our WHOTS verdict
An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
74out of 100
Grade BGood opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £700,000, this detached bungalow is priced well below the local average on a £/sqf basis, giving buyers an opportunity to acquire more than 2,300 sq ft at a relative discount. The interiors are generally tidy but dated, making this a light-scale project to refresh and personalise rather than a house with obvious major internal damage.
The standout canvas is the private 0.38-acre plot, with gated access, a long driveway and detached double garage. The mature garden could be made more usable with selective pruning, while updated finishes and attention to the kitchen and the en-suite shower would help bring the property up to date. The shared septic tank and private drainage are worth understanding as part of due diligence.
Key opportunities
- Acquire over 2,300 sq ft at an asking price below the local average on a £/sqf basis.
- Refresh the traditional interior finishes and dated kitchen to give the home a more current feel.
- Make more of the mature private garden through selective pruning and improvement, alongside the gated driveway and detached double garage.
