Requires renovation: kitchen, bathrooms and general updating needed

This mid-century detached bungalow occupies a large, private plot in a well-regarded Henley-on-Thames neighbourhood. Single-storey living extends to about 1,329 sq ft with four bedrooms, generous reception space and full-height glazing that brings the garden into the home. The layout suits buyers seeking accessible accommodation or those wanting to downsize without compromising space.
The property retains distinctive 1960s character—wood‑panelled details and clean lines—but is offered in a condition that requires renovation. The kitchen, bathrooms and some services will need updating; the EPC rating is F and the cavity walls appear uninsulated. Electric underfloor heating is installed, and the main fuel is electricity (not community), which should be considered when budgeting running costs.
Outside, the mature gardens and established trees provide strong privacy and scope for landscaping, extension or reconfiguration subject to planning. Practical features include a garage, carport and generous driveway. Local amenities, good primary and outstanding secondary schools, leisure facilities and fast broadband make this a practical, well-connected option.
This house is a blank canvas for an owner-occupier or downsizer who values single-storey living and mid-century character and is prepared to invest in modernisation. Key negatives are the renovation requirement, poor EPC rating, likely wall insulation work and overall expensive council tax banding.
