Set in the quiet Burlescombe hamlet, this two-bedroom mid‑20th century bungalow offers a compact, single‑storey layout and a decent rear garden with countryside views. The property is chain free and freehold, making it straightforward to purchase. It will suit someone looking for a peaceful, rural home or a downsizer seeking single‑level living.
The accommodation is traditional and functional: a living room with a fireplace and built‑in storage, a front double bedroom and a smaller second bedroom overlooking the garden. The kitchen opens to a lean‑to and a useful store room with lighting and an electricity supply. The bathroom has a walk‑in shower and basic fittings.
Important practical points are clear: the bungalow needs modernisation throughout and improvements to insulation and services are likely, reflected in the EPC F rating. Heating is by electric-fed boiler and radiators; the walls are cavity construction with no installed insulation (assumed). Broadband is very slow locally and the area records higher local crime levels, which should be considered.
For buyers prepared to invest in upgrades, the bungalow offers scope to modernise the interior, improve energy performance and make the most of the rear garden and rural outlook. Its modest size and straightforward layout make it a manageable renovation project for downsizers, first-time buyers with renovation experience, or investors seeking a low‑entry rural property.
