This two-bedroom detached bungalow sits on a large corner plot in a quiet cul-de-sac, offering low‑step single‑storey living ideal for downsizers or those seeking a simpler layout. Recent updates include a modern kitchen, new bathroom, re‑carpeted rooms and a 2020 oil boiler; the loft was re‑insulated in 2023. The conservatory and substantial rear and side gardens create private outdoor space and scope to extend (subject to planning).
Practical features include a good‑sized utility room, attached garage with power and lighting, driveway parking and double glazing. Ultrafast broadband is available which suits home working or streaming. The bungalow is offered chain free, so it may suit buyers looking for a quicker move.
Be aware of a few material points: heating is oil‑fired (not gas), the EPC is grade E, and the area is one of historical mining activity — a mining search is recommended during conveyancing. The property has been vacant for several months, so additional council tax charges may be payable on completion. Local crime statistics are above average for the immediate area.
Overall, this bungalow presents straightforward, low‑level living on a substantial plot with immediate usability and clear potential for extension or further modernisation. It will suit a purchaser who values single‑storey convenience, outdoor space and fast broadband, while accepting the running costs and due diligence requirements tied to oil heating and the local mining history.
