This extended two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow sits on a secluded wrap-around plot on Ripley Road, offering single-storey living with true potential. The layout includes a large living room and an extended kitchen-diner, plus two double bedrooms — a straightforward home for a small family or downsizer.
Practical benefits are immediate: two driveways, a garage and a decent garden provide off-street parking and outdoor space. The freehold tenure and the plot size also present a clear opportunity to extend further, subject to planning (STPP).
Location is a strong point for commuters and families. The property is close to the Luton Busway, Junction 11 of the M1 and Luton & Dunstable Hospital. Several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
Buyers should note material considerations: the EPC is D and the interior shows dated finish and wear, so cosmetic refurbishment is likely. There is only one bathroom. The local area records higher crime and wider deprivation indicators, which may affect suitability for some purchasers and rental yields for investors.
Overall, this bungalow offers immediate liveability with clear scope to add value through updating or an extension, making it a viable purchase for families, downsizers or buyers looking to invest in renovation potential.
