Small, single‑storey home for straightforward downsizing and DIY improvement.
Quiet cul-de-sac position with front and rear gardens
Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow suits a buyer looking to downsize into a single‑storey home with outdoor space. The layout is simple and practical: entrance hall, lounge with fireplace, compact kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room. The plot includes front and rear gardens, a side driveway and a single garage — useful for parking or storage.
The property already has gas central heating to radiators and double glazing, but it requires renovation and general updating throughout. The living room and other internal finishes show dated décor and some wall damage; the building dates from the late 1960s–1970s and will reward someone willing to carry out improvements. Council Tax band is low, and the freehold tenure removes leasehold complications.
Location strengths include good mobile signal, fast broadband potential and nearby primary and secondary schools rated Good to Outstanding. However, the immediate area is classified as very deprived with higher-than-average crime levels; buyers should weigh local social and safety factors. Flood risk is low and there are no known coalfield or mining issues.
An offer of £100,000 has been received; higher written offers will be considered. For a buyer seeking a manageable, single-storey home to personalise, this bungalow offers reasonable outdoor space and parking but is best suited to someone prepared for refurbishment work.
