This detached, single-storey bungalow in Kirby Hill offers a calm, rural retirement setting with generous gardens and open countryside views to the rear. The living room and master bedroom take best advantage of the outlook, bringing daylight and a sense of space to the principal rooms. The property is chain-free and freehold, making it straightforward to buy for a quick move.
The layout is traditional and easy to manage: two bedrooms, a large sitting room, dining kitchen and a shower room. A sizable attached garage and private driveway add useful storage and parking. Broadband speeds and mobile signal are excellent here, so staying connected is simple despite the village setting.
The bungalow does require renovation and updating throughout; the EPC rating is D and many internal finishes are dated. This property suits buyers who want a peaceful retirement home they can personalise, or those seeking a low-maintenance plot with scope to improve value. Practical considerations include a single shower room and moderate council tax banding.
Local life is quiet and friendly: Kirby Hill sits close to Boroughbridge amenities, schools and transport links including the nearby A1. For someone seeking a manageable, single-storey home with private outdoor space and notable views, this bungalow offers a rare combination of privacy and convenience in an affluent rural area.
