Boydens are pleased to bring to the market this three-bedroom extended chalet bungalow, set in a prime position on the green in the sought-after village of Great Bentley. Rarely does a property of this size, price, and specification become available directly on the green.

The property is accessed through an entrance porch, leading to a welcoming hall complete with a bespoke, ornate oak staircase and doors to the main rooms. The well-appointed lounge and dining room feature a gas fireplace, a large front window with green views, and bifold doors into the spacious conservatory, which includes a radiator and French doors opening to the rear garden. The high-spec kitchen offers fitted base and eye-level units with granite worktops and an inset sink, along with space for appliances, an airing cupboard, and the boiler. A door from the kitchen leads to a utility room, providing plumbing for a washing machine and access to the garden. The ground floor also includes a large shower room with a walk-in double shower, WC, and wash basin, which serves a versatile downstairs bedroom with green views, easily repurposed as a third reception room if desired.

On the first floor are two well-sized bedrooms, both enjoying views of the green and the rear garden. Each bedroom includes fitted wardrobes, storage, and wash basins for added convenience. These rooms are serviced by a shower room with a cubicle shower and WC, accessible from the landing.

Externally, the property benefits from a tarmac driveway leading through double gates to additional parking and a detached double garage with power and lighting. The front garden, primarily laid to lawn, includes a large established oak tree and could provide further parking if needed. The rear garden is also laid to lawn with mature trees and shrubs and includes a raised pergola, perfect for summer entertaining.

The property’s location in Great Bentley offers an award-winning village green, a variety of shops including an Express Supermarket, a village pub, a highly regarded primary school, and a mainline railway station with links to London Liverpool Street. The nearby A133/A120 provides access to the A12 corridor and London, while Clacton-on-Sea, a popular seaside resort with a renowned pier, is also within easy reach.

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted

    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
