Description

This three-bedroom detached bungalow is set on a substantial plot in Shenfield, within walking distance of the station and Broadway. The accommodation is arranged around an entrance hall and includes a lounge with a fireplace and sliding doors to the rear garden, a kitchen/breakfast room, and a separate utility room with laundry space and external access. The principal bedroom has an en-suite shower room, with two further bedrooms and a family bathroom. A separate dining room offers flexibility for use as a study, hobbies room or additional bedroom. The property is offered with no onward chain. The south-west-facing rear garden is mainly lawn, with mature trees, established borders and a paved terrace beside the bungalow. At the front, a private driveway leads to a double garage. The listing describes the plot as approximately 0.248 acres, subject to survey, and notes potential for extension subject to the necessary consents. The stated accommodation extends to approximately 1,291 sq ft. Shenfield station provides mainline and Elizabeth line services, while shops and cafés are available at the Broadway.

48out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

The standout is the setting: a substantial 0.248-acre plot with an established south-west-facing garden, driveway and double garage, on a private road within walking distance of Shenfield Station and Broadway. The bungalow looks well maintained, so the project is more about updating older finishes and making the flexible layout your own than tackling a major refurbishment. The separate dining room offers useful scope for another purpose, while any extension potential remains subject to planning and feasibility.

Even a workable headline price does not rescue the maths when once you include an estimated £10,000 of works on top of the asking price, spend approaches £960,000 — roughly 16% above what comparable floor area achieves locally in current condition. The economics score captures that squeeze; finished resale value is outside our model.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the older-style kitchen cabinetry and en-suite finishes while retaining fittings that appear usable.
  • Adapt the separate dining room to suit your needs, such as a study, hobby room or additional bedroom.
  • Make the most of the established south-west-facing garden, terrace, driveway and double garage; explore any extension ideas subject to consents and feasibility.

Key risks

  • At the asking price, adding the estimated £5,000–£15,000 of works still leaves the purchase-plus-refurb cost stretched against the local average benchmark for this floor area.
  • Factor in roughly £960,000 once the asking price and an estimated £10,000 of refurbishment are combined, leaving a gap of around 16% versus area norms for this sqft. Finished value after works is not modelled here.
