This two-bedroom true bungalow offers single-storey living on a popular cul-de-sac, suited to a downsizer, couple or first-time buyer seeking a compact, low-maintenance home. The layout is straightforward: entrance hall, living room, fitted kitchen, two bedrooms, bathroom, separate WC, and a useful storage cupboard. Outside there is an enclosed wrap-around rear garden, modest front lawn, detached garage and driveway for off-street parking.
The property is presented in largely move-in condition but will benefit from some cosmetic updating and energy-efficiency improvements. Heating is by electric room heaters and the EPC is rated F, which may mean higher energy costs compared with centrally heated homes. There is, however, good potential for improvement and modest extension subject to planning, given the single-storey footprint.
Practical details are favourable for many buyers: leasehold with 999 years remaining and a small ground rent of £30, council tax Band A (very low), fast broadband and excellent mobile signal. The location offers easy access to commuter routes, nearby amenities and several primary schools rated Good, while the quieter cul-de-sac setting and garage add everyday convenience.
Important considerations: the property occupies a small plot (approx. 571 sq ft) and sits in an area with higher-than-average deprivation indicators. Prospective buyers should note the F EPC and electric heating when budgeting for running costs and consider remedial works to improve energy performance.
