Set well back on Brizlincote Lane, this three-bedroom detached bungalow sits on a substantial, very large plot (circa 0.4 acre) and delivers rare single-storey living in one of Burton-on-Trent’s most desirable suburbs. The house offers a generous open-plan kitchen/living space with French doors to the garden, a sunroom that links indoor and outdoor living, and a long driveway plus detached garage — practical for multiple cars and hobbies.
The layout and plot will particularly appeal to downsizers and those seeking single-floor convenience with substantial outdoor space for gardening, entertaining or potential extension (subject to consents). Heating is gas-fired via boiler and radiators and the property benefits from double glazing; broadband is fast and the area has low crime and very affluent surroundings, supporting long-term lifestyle value.
There are some practical matters to note: the house dates from the 1950s–60s and the cavity walls are assumed to have no insulation, which will affect running costs and may require upgrading. Council tax is above average. The bathroom situation should be confirmed before viewing (recorded as one bathroom despite references to an en-suite), and parts of the property present renovation potential rather than a fully modern finish.
Overall this is a comfortable, private bungalow on a large plot that offers immediate liveability with clear potential to personalise and improve energy performance. It’s well placed for green spaces and local schools, making it a solid option for retirees or anyone wanting practical, single-storey living with room to expand.
