A compact two-bedroom mid-terrace bungalow thoughtfully adapted for disabled access, offering single-storey living close to local amenities in Ryhope. The layout includes a spacious lounge, fitted kitchen, two double bedrooms and a modern wet room installed within the last 18 months — practical for mobility needs and immediate occupation.
Externally the property has a low-maintenance paved front garden with an access ramp and artificial grass, plus a private yard to the rear. The home is freehold, has double glazing (pre-2002), a mains gas boiler with radiators, and an EPC rating of C. Council Tax is Band A so running costs are relatively low.
The bungalow is best suited to downsizers or buyers seeking accessible, single-storey accommodation in a well-served neighbourhood. Room sizes are modest and the property shows signs of mid-20th century construction and wear, so buyers should expect some home improvement or updating to personalise the space. The plot is small and the built form is mid-terrace rather than detached, which limits extension potential.
Location strengths include excellent mobile signal, fast broadband, nearby shops and public services, and a cluster of primary and secondary schools with Good Ofsted ratings. Buyers should note the area scores high for deprivation and recorded crime is above average; these local factors may affect long-term value and require consideration.
