Ideal peaceful retirement near good transport links and outstanding schools.
Large private corner plot with low-maintenance gardens
Set on a substantial corner plot in Orrell, this semi-detached bungalow offers comfortable single‑storey living with genuine potential. The layout includes two good-sized bedrooms, a generous lounge opening to a conservatory, and a boarded loft that could offer future conversion subject to planning. A double-brick garage with an electric roller door and off-road parking adds secure storage and vehicular space.
Practical comforts include UPVC double glazing, a recently maintained combi boiler (as stated), excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for staying connected. The property is chain-free with a very long lease (931 years) and affordable council tax band C, making it straightforward for retirees or downsizers seeking a low‑hassle move.
There are a few points to note: the tenure is leasehold with a small annual ground rent, the area records a high surface-water flood score (though rivers/sea risk is very low), and some cosmetic modernisation would personalise the home. Buyers should allow for possible planning and building costs if converting the loft or reconfiguring spaces.
Positioned close to regular bus links, Gathurst rail connections and several highly rated schools, this bungalow suits those wanting peaceful suburban living with easy commuter access, outdoor walks nearby, and room to adapt the house over time.
