The Driveway, Canvey Island, SS8

Occupying a generous plot in a convenient Canvey Island location, this THREE-BEDROOM DETACHED BUNGALOW offers spacious single-storey accommodation, excellent parking and a substantial WEST-FACING REAR GARDEN. Having been enjoyed by the same owners for an impressive 52 years, the property has clearly been a much-loved home and now presents an excellent opportunity for its next chapter.

The accommodation is well proportioned throughout, with the LIVING ROOM providing an inviting main reception space. A feature BAY WINDOW allows plenty of natural light to flow into the room, while AIR CONDITIONING provides additional comfort throughout the warmer months. The air-conditioning system also benefits from approximately SEVEN YEARS REMAINING ON ITS WARRANTY.

There are THREE BEDROOMS in total. The principal bedroom benefits from its own BAY WINDOW and AIR CONDITIONING, while the second bedroom also enjoys a bay window. The third bedroom offers excellent versatility and would work equally well as a guest bedroom, home office, dressing room or hobby space.

The kitchen provides a generous amount of storage and preparation space and includes a BRAND-NEW INTEGRATED WASHING MACHINE, which will remain at the property, together with an INTEGRATED FRIDGE. The ELECTRIC COOKER is approximately ONE YEAR OLD, providing another useful recent upgrade.

The property also benefits from a NEW BOILER installed approximately THREE YEARS AGO, with around SEVEN YEARS REMAINING ON THE WARRANTY, together with a FORCED-AIR VENTILATION SYSTEM helping to improve airflow throughout the home.

Completing the internal accommodation is a FOUR-PIECE BATHROOM SUITE incorporating both a bath and separate shower.

Further living space is provided by the CONSERVATORY, which was newly installed approximately TWO YEARS AGO and provides an excellent additional area for relaxing, dining or enjoying views across the rear garden.

A number of further improvements have been completed, including NEW WINDOWS and a NEW FRONT DOOR fitted this year. The front door incorporates a HIGH-SECURITY ULTION LOCK, while an ALARM SYSTEM and CCTV provide additional security and reassurance.

Excellent storage is available within the LARGE LOFT, which benefits from a NEW LOFT HATCH and INTEGRATED LOFT LADDER. The loft is also approximately half boarded, providing practical storage space.

Externally, the property continues to impress. To the front is a NEW RESIN AND BLOCK-PAVED DRIVEWAY providing OFF-STREET PARKING FOR MULTIPLE VEHICLES, creating an attractive and low-maintenance approach to the home.

The property also benefits from a GARAGE with an ELECTRIC GARAGE DOOR, providing convenient and secure parking or additional storage.

To the rear is a particularly generous WEST-FACING GARDEN, ideal for enjoying the afternoon and evening sunshine. There is ample space for outdoor seating, entertaining and gardening, together with multiple sheds providing useful additional storage.
