UPVC double glazing, mains gas central heating and solar panels

High flood risk — affects insurance and future works, seek specialist advice
Council Tax Band E and EPC B — consider running cost implications
Walking distance to village shops; small-town fringe location with good privacy
Set well back on a generous plot of around 0.3 acres, this detached dormer-style bungalow offers spacious, flexible living ideally suited to families who want mostly ground-floor accommodation with scope to adapt. The property sits opposite protected woodland, giving good privacy and green views to the rear, and is within walking distance of village shops and local amenities.
Practical features include UPVC double glazing, mains gas central heating, solar panels, electric gated driveway, a car port and a large three-car garage. The south-facing rear garden is extensive and includes four log cabins/outbuildings — ideal for storage, hobbies or potential home offices. The house is chain-free and presented with a moderate footprint that invites a degree of modernisation or extension (subject to planning permission).
Notable considerations: the plot lies in an area recorded as high flood risk, which will affect insurance and any future works; buyers should obtain up-to-date flood assessments and insurance quotes. The property offers vast potential to put your own mark on the interior and possibly extend into the loft or to the side, but parts will require updating to modern tastes. Council Tax Band E and EPC rating B reflect above-average running and ownership costs for the area.
Overall this is a rare, private family plot on the edge of the village with strong potential for someone wanting more outdoor space, garaging and the option to remodel or enlarge. Expect to budget for refurbishment and to investigate flood risk mitigation before committing.
