A single-storey semi-detached bungalow tucked into peaceful Markfield village, this home offers easy, single-level living and generous outside space. The wrap-around garden, sizeable conservatory and single garage create useful amenity for downsizers or those seeking a quiet village base. The property is large for a one-bedroom bungalow (approx. 707 sq ft) and benefits from good natural light and a practical layout.
The interior is largely serviceable but in need of modernisation. The kitchen is dated (1980s style) and the property requires renovation to bring fixtures and finishes up to contemporary standards. Heating details include mains gas boiler and radiators, with electric heating also noted; prospective buyers should confirm the heating setup and appliance condition during inspection. Double glazing is present but the installation date is unknown.
Practical positives include wheelchair-accessible features, a modern wet room-style shower, low local crime, decent broadband, and a cheap council tax band. The home will be sold by auction under the Modern Method of Auction; bidders should review the Buyer Information Pack, note the non-refundable reservation fee (4.5% of purchase price, minimum £6,600) and the 56-day completion period before bidding. This property suits buyers seeking a renovation project, a manageable single-level home, or a village retirement/downsizing option.
Important drawbacks: the property explicitly needs renovation, the kitchen is dated, and auction sale costs/terms apply. Buyers requiring mortgage finance should seek lender pre-approval and inspect the property and documents carefully prior to bidding.
