AUCTION SALE 03 February 2026 - Freehold detached bungalow requiring modernisationDevelopment potential STPPFull vacant possession
Property Oracle says ..
This is a two-bedroom detached bungalow located on Mersea Road in Colchester. The property benefits from front and rear gardens and is situated within proximity to local schools and transportation links. However, the interior of the property requires significant renovation and modernization. The asking price of £215,000 reflects the condition of the property and offers an opportunity for buyers looking to put their own stamp on a home. The location is reasonably good, with schools and transport nearby, but the condition brings down the overall appeal.
Therefore, we give this property 5 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
