2 bedroom detached bungalow for sale
Colchester, CO4
bungalow 
2 bedrooms Property description
THE PROPERTY
Little Blakes is a well looked after detached bungalow with super views and good potential for extension (stp).
The property is one of a pair of bungalows at the end of a private drive, off Straight Road in the village of Boxted. It has grounds that measure a fifth of an acre, which are private and which benefit from pleasant open views over farmland to the south.
The house measures 950 square feet and has two bedrooms; these each have their own en-suite facilities (a shower room and a bathroom) and a large enough for double sized beds. Further accommodation includes a dual aspect sitting room with a (closed) fireplace, a kitchen with space for a breakfast table and French doors to the garden, a utility room and a WC.
The property sits centrally within its plot meaning it has several areas of garden. There is a brick built detached double garage (with storage above) and a garden shed; the boundary fencing was replaced and the driveway was shingled in the summer of 2025.
Given its excellent location and the position of the property within its plot, we believe that Little Blakes is ideally suited for an extension to add a third bedroom and further living space. Whilst any extension would be subject to planning permission being granted, we understand that similar permission was given in in the past.
LOCATION
Little Blakes is located in the village of Boxted, just outside the Dedham Vale Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and just two miles from the edge of Colchester City and the A12. Colchester mainline train station is four miles from the property, where a direct service to London Liverpool Street runs with a journey time of just under an hour.
