Overall Description

This is a semi-detached bungalow in a sought after location close to local amenities. The property has three bedrooms, one on the first floor in the converted loft, as well as a bathroom. The sitting and dining rooms are open-plan to create one large living space and the kitchen/breakfast room has been extended to the rear to leave plenty of space for a dining table. The property has gas central-heating and would benefit from internal modernisation but has scope for further extension and improvement as many other similar properties have been in the area (subject to the usual consents). The property has a garage, hard-standing for a caravan and large garden which has a southerly aspect and is surprisingly private. Viewing is highly recommended so please call to arrange a time to have a look around. To watch our vitual Video Guided Tour please search for 16 The Driveway, Canvey Island on You Tube.
