This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow on Holmefield Avenue is a practical choice for downsizers or first-time buyers seeking a manageable, single-storey home with scope to add value. Its freehold status, chain-free sale and off-street parking make the purchase straightforward. The property requires renovation throughout, offering a blank canvas to modernise to personal taste.
Inside, rooms are modest but well-proportioned, with a lounge, fitted kitchen and a single bathroom providing the essentials. The bungalow dates from the mid-20th century and retains some period features; double glazing was installed before 2002 and the heating runs from a mains-gas boiler with radiators. Buyers should allow budget for updating fixtures, finishes and potential services checks.
Outside, the plot is one of the property’s strengths: a decent, east-facing rear garden, brick and wooden outbuildings and a driveway for off-street parking. The location is suburban and convenient — local shops, bus routes and a range of schools (including several rated Good or Outstanding) are within easy reach. Broadband and mobile signals are strong, and there is no flood risk.
This bungalow suits someone looking to downsize into a single-level home or an investor/first-time buyer prepared to refurbish. The combination of plot size, parking and a chain-free sale gives clear potential, but buyers should commission surveys and factor renovation costs into any offer.
