This detached two-bedroom bungalow sits on a large plot in Freshwater, offering single-storey living that will appeal to downsizers and those seeking ease of access. The lounge benefits from picturesque long views across Tennyson Downs, while the private rear garden provides a secure, low-maintenance canvas for gardening or relaxation. The property is newly renovated internally with an upgraded shower room, modern kitchen fittings and a recently renewed boiler for mains gas central heating.
Practical strengths include off-road parking, an integral garage and freehold tenure. The layout is traditional and straightforward, with approximately 1,002 sq ft of accommodation and double glazing already installed. The bungalow is within walking distance of Freshwater village amenities, local shops and well-rated primary schools, and benefits from excellent mobile signal and fast broadband.
Important transactional details: this sale is by the Modern Method of Auction. Buyers will pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee (4.2% of the purchase price including VAT, minimum £6,000) in addition to the purchase price, and must complete within the auction timetable. The property is subject to an undisclosed Reserve Price and a Buyer Information Pack is provided; purchasers should carry out their own due diligence and verify measurements, services and legal title before bidding.
Notable practical considerations: the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s and cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation. While newly renovated internally, the property may still benefit from further insulation or energy-efficiency improvements. The surrounding area has average crime and higher local deprivation indices; buyers should review local services and long-term running costs.
