2 bed bungalow for sale

Ivy Lodge Road, Great Horkesley, Colchester, Essex CO6

Located on Ivy Lodge Road in the desirable village of Great Horkesley, this detached bungalow occupies a generous plot of approximately 0.25 acres (sts). Set back from the road with ample off-road parking, the property enjoys a peaceful setting with a stream running along the end of the garden. A large external store and expansive rear garden add further appeal to this well-positioned home.

The heart of this home is a spacious open plan reception and dining area, designed to maximise natural light and garden views. Large bi-fold doors span the rear elevation, seamlessly connecting the interior with the landscaped patio and extensive garden beyond. Clean architectural lines, high ceilings, and polished tiled flooring enhance the sense of space, while the layout provides clearly defined zones for relaxation and dining.
The adjacent kitchen offers sleek cabinetry with integrated appliances, arranged with both efficiency and clean aesthetics in mind. With direct access to the driveway and close proximity to the main living area, the layout is both practical and well considered.
The accommodation includes two well-proportioned bedrooms, with the main room currently formed by combining two original bedrooms to create a particularly spacious layout with extensive built-in storage. This arrangement could readily be returned to its original configuration to provide a third bedroom if required. The second bedroom is also of good size and includes fitted wardrobes and a front-facing bay window. The layout offers flexibility to suit a range of lifestyle needs.
The main bathroom is finished to a high standard and features a contemporary suite, including a freestanding bath and walk-in shower with glazed screen. Tiled throughout in complementary tones, the space is both functional. A separate cloakroom completes the accommodation.
To the front of the property, a large, shingled driveway provides ample off-road parking, with a further hardstanding area to the side offering additional space for vehicles or access to the rear. The plot extends to approximately 0.25 acres (subject to survey), with a generously proportioned rear garden laid mainly to lawn and bordered by mature trees and fencing for privacy.
A raised terrace immediately to the rear of the property offers a natural space for outdoor seating or dining, with steps leading down to the main garden. At the far end, a gently flowing stream marks the rear boundary, adding a tranquil aspect to the setting. In addition, a substantial outbuilding currently in use as a workshop provides excellent storage or conversion potential, subject to any necessary consents. The grounds are well maintained and offer scope for further landscaping or development if desired.
