Description

This unique 2-bedroom semi-detached bungalow, set in a peaceful semi-rural environment, presents an exceptional opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled on approximately 1.4 acres of land, the property enjoys scenic views of open fields while being conveniently located near Upminster Town Centre, providing easy access to local shops and amenities. For commuters, the proximity to the A127 and M25 makes travel straightforward, adding to the property’s appeal as a family retreat with ample space. Internally, you will find a welcoming entrance porch leading into a hallway that connects to key living areas. The living room features a charming fireplace and views over the expansive rear garden. There’s also a kitchen/breakfast room with good storage and dining facilities suited for family meals, along with a dining room that can serve multiple purposes such as additional living space or entertaining guests. Both double bedrooms benefit from natural light and generous proportions. A modern three-piece shower room is complemented by an outside W.C., enhancing functionality. Among the outbuildings is a detached double garage that could serve as secure parking or be converted into workshop space. An additional outbuilding functions well as an office or utility area, ideal for those working from home. The extensive outdoor area also includes five dog kennels and a log shed, which present further possibilities for adaptation or use for animal enthusiasts. This property not only boasts well-maintained gardens but also considerable potential for landscaping improvements or developing leisure spaces (subject to planning permission). With no onward chain, interested buyers can anticipate a seamless transition into this one-of-a-kind home that balances countryside tranquility with urban convenience.
