Single-level living with large gardens and strong renovation potential.
Detached two-bedroom bungalow on a large corner plot
Set on a generous corner plot in the village of East Leake, this detached two-bedroom bungalow offers true single-level living and substantial outdoor space. The wrap-around front, side and rear gardens and detached garage with driveway provide privacy, storage and off-road parking for multiple cars — rare for properties of this type.
Internally the layout is straightforward: lounge, dining room, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. The property dates from the mid-20th century and requires full modernisation throughout, giving a clear blank canvas to update fixtures, finishes and heating controls to contemporary standards. Cavity walls are as-built and likely uninsulated (assumed), so buyers should factor in insulation and energy-improvement works.
There is scope to extend or reconfigure the footprint subject to planning permission, which will appeal to those wanting to add value or adapt the space for longer-term needs. The bungalow is freehold, has mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and sits in a very affluent, low-risk location with good mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for downsizers or remote workers.
Practical drawbacks are straightforward: the home needs renovation throughout, there is a single bathroom, and some energy-efficiency improvements will likely be required. Viewing is recommended for anyone seeking a substantial plot, easy single-storey living and a renovation opportunity in a well-connected village close to Loughborough and commuter routes.
