Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This traditional detached bungalow in Tong offers a unique opportunity to create a beautiful family home in a sought-after coastal location. While the property does show signs of wear and requires significant updates throughout, the spacious layout, including a generous lounge and three bedrooms with fitted storage, provides a solid foundation for redecoration and modernisation. The good-sized garden and additional plot of land enhance the appeal, especially for those seeking outdoor space.

At a guide price of £140,000, which translates to £162/sqf, the property is slightly above the local average of £145/sqf. Although this limits the price/value score, it still represents an attractive entry point for a project in a desirable area. Bidding may push the final price above the guide, but the potential for transformation in this idyllic setting is significant. Early viewing is recommended to fully appreciate the accommodation and the exciting potential this property has to offer.
