AUCTION SALE 18 November 2025 - Freehold detached bungalow requiring modernisation, Development potential STPP, Full vacant possession
Property Oracle says ..
This detached bungalow on Mersea Road, Colchester, presents a renovation opportunity. While the location offers proximity to schools and transport, the property’s condition requires significant investment. The generous garden is a definite plus. The asking price of £270,000 appears fair, considering the property’s size and the local market, but factor in renovation costs.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
