This extended two-bedroom detached bungalow occupies a generous plot on a sought-after Bishop Auckland estate, offering spacious single-storey living and useful outbuildings. The home’s standout features include a large L-shaped lounge/dining room, a bright 21ft garden room with Velux windows, and a practical utility room with pedestrian access to the garage. A new roof was fitted in 2024, reducing immediate major maintenance costs.
The interior benefits from large room proportions, two bathrooms (a family bathroom and an impressive double-seated shower room with dressing room access), gas central heating and uPVC double glazing. Off-road parking is extensive thanks to a wide block-paved driveway capable of accommodating multiple vehicles, caravan or motorhome, plus an electric up-and-over garage with power and lighting.
Occupying a low-maintenance paved rear garden with open views over the adjacent recreation ground, the property suits buyers seeking single-storey convenience, flexible living space and easy outdoor upkeep. The bungalow is offered with no onward chain, on a freehold title, and sits within walking distance of local schools, shops and transport links to the A1(M).
Notable considerations: the wider area scores as relatively deprived and local crime is reported above average, which may affect long-term resale and security perceptions. While well-presented, the house’s mid-century construction and size mean ongoing maintenance and some updating could be required to modernise finishes to personal taste.
