3-bedroom detached bungalow, single-storey living
A mid-20th-century detached bungalow offering three bedrooms and single-storey living on a decent plot in Woodfieldside. The property totals about 947 sq ft and includes a large conservatory, off-street parking and a garden that needs updating — a straightforward canvas for someone wanting to create a comfortable, single-level home.
Internally the layout is practical: two double bedrooms with bay windows, a further single bedroom, a spacious reception room with a brick fireplace, kitchen/diner and a family bathroom with separate bath and shower. Heating is by a mains-gas boiler and radiators; double glazing is fitted but appears to pre-date 2002. Original cavity walls likely lack insulation and the EPC rating is E, so buyers should plan upgrade costs for energy efficiency.
The house requires renovation rather than cosmetic refresh: expect work to modernise kitchens, bathrooms, insulation and possibly wiring. The area is classed as very deprived, and local amenities are basic but include sports and leisure facilities; crime levels are average. Broadband speeds are average while mobile signal is excellent.
This bungalow will suit downsizers who need single-level living, buyers seeking a renovation project to add value, or investors targeting achievable uplift. Its freehold tenure, detached form and off-street parking are strong practical advantages. Be realistic about renovation budgets and timing — the property is a clear project but offers good potential for a comfortable, tailored home once improved.
