This detached two-bedroom bungalow sits on a generous private plot in a well-regarded part of Thorne, offering single-level living that appeals to first-time buyers seeking manageable, long-term accommodation. Neutral décor and a cream high-gloss kitchen create a bright, welcoming core; two double bedrooms and two reception rooms provide flexible living and home-office options.
Outdoor space and parking are genuine strengths: a decent-sized garden and a garage give room for relaxing, storage or light DIY. The location is convenient for everyday life with nearby parks, walking routes, a golf course, and several well-rated primary and secondary schools within easy reach.
There are clear improvement needs to factor into any offer. The property dates from the early 20th century with solid brick walls likely uninsulated and an EPC rating of F, so energy-efficiency upgrades (insulation, possibly boiler/service) will be required to reduce running costs. Flood risk is assessed as medium in this area, and local crime levels are above average — both are important when considering insurance and long-term suitability.
Overall this freehold bungalow offers a compact, comfortable home with strong outside space and straightforward layout. Buyers should budget for energy-efficiency works and take professional advice on flood risk mitigation; sensible refurbishment will unlock better comfort and value over time.
