This detached three-bedroom bungalow on Shorton Valley Road offers comfortable, characterful living in a popular Preston location. The main living areas are on the ground floor — lounge with bay window and an open-plan kitchen/dining room — giving practical single-storey living for most of the day-to-day needs. The property sits on a decent plot with an enclosed, tiered rear garden, patio and timber decking providing private outside space. The driveway provides off-street parking for one car. Nearby shops, services and the beaches of Preston and Paignton are within easy reach.
The first-floor bedroom and shower room indicate attic/loft space has been used, which adds versatility but also means some rooms are not full-height throughout. The bungalow is a mid-20th-century suburban build with scope for updating — images and descriptions point to a property that would benefit from cosmetic modernisation and possible improvements to fully realise its potential. Council Tax Band C, freehold tenure and very low local crime rates are practical advantages.
This home will suit downsizers wanting predominantly single-floor living who value a private rear garden and proximity to local amenities and the coast. It will also appeal to buyers seeking a modest renovation project to add value. Consider the stairs to the first-floor room when assessing long-term accessibility needs, and note the driveway only accommodates one vehicle. An internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and garden terraces.
