Description

A detached period chalet bungalow in the Thorpedene area of Shoeburyness, offered with no onward chain. The accommodation is described as two or three bedrooms, with a flexible layout and character features.

Outside, there is a south-facing rear garden, a wide frontage with off-street parking, and an attached garage.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

50out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This detached chalet bungalow has a clear renovation canvas: the dated finishes, worn flooring and marked decoration across several rooms offer scope to reshape the interiors, while the kitchen and bathroom are particularly ready for updating. The untidy rear garden also gives room to improve the outdoor space. Character detailing, an attached garage, generous parking frontage and the south-facing garden are appealing features to build around.

The asking price is £350,000, with a renovation range of £35,000–£65,000. Floor area is missing, so value versus local £/sqf cannot yet be judged; the score is therefore a weak overall opportunity rather than a verdict that the price is dear. The location is noted as good, but the available information does not establish the finished-value case.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen and bathroom, including the worn kitchen flooring and incomplete-looking lower cabinetry and bath panel.
  • Update decoration and flooring across several rooms while retaining and showcasing the visible fireplace and timber detailing.
  • Tidy and improve the south-facing rear garden; the attached garage and broad block-paved frontage add useful practical features.
