Affordable, single-storey living with modern kitchen and loft potential — ideal for first-time buyers or downsizers.
Freehold two-bedroom bungalow, ready to move into
Ready-to-move-in and sensibly updated, this two-bedroom mid-20th-century bungalow on Blackthorne Avenue offers practical single-storey living for first-time buyers or downsizers. The living room is bright with period details and a coal-effect gas fire; a modern kitchen and dining area provide a comfortable social hub. Two generously proportioned bedrooms plus a loft space create flexible accommodation for guests, home office, or storage.
Outside, the low-maintenance front garden and fenced rear yard with patio and lawn suit easy upkeep and alfresco breaks. The property is freehold, has mains gas heating with a combi boiler, double glazing and fast broadband and mobile signal — practical essentials for everyday living.
Notable drawbacks are factual and material: the area is comparatively deprived with above-average crime levels, and the mid-century cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, so energy efficiency may be poor and further insulation work could be needed. The plot is small and some rooms are compact, so buyers wanting larger gardens or expansive living space should note the limits.
Overall this bungalow represents an affordable entry into homeownership (very cheap council tax, SR8 postcode) with immediate occupancy potential and straightforward cosmetic or insulation improvements to enhance comfort and long-term running costs. Early viewing is recommended to assess layout and any required upgrades in person.
