Detached, chain-free bungalow on a decent plot with attached single garage
Large overall floor area ~1,492 sq ft; approx six rooms including loft space
Pre-1973 loft conversion with two bedrooms and WC; likely no building-regs sign-off

Enclosed rear garden that is private and not overlooked
Good local schools nearby; comfortable, sought-after neighbourhood
Easy access to major motorway networks; excellent mobile and fast broadband
Freehold tenure; mains gas boiler and double glazing present
This detached, chain-free bungalow on Highfield Avenue offers generous living space and clear scope to add value. Set on a decent plot with a private rear garden and attached single garage, the property suits downsizers or small families who want ground-floor living with extra loft accommodation already in place.
Internally the ground floor provides a lounge open to a dining area, a breakfast kitchen, two double bedrooms and a family bathroom. A pre-1973 loft conversion created additional bedrooms and a WC, but this work likely lacks building-regulations sign-off and should be inspected and regularised before use. The overall footprint and the substantial total floor area (circa 1,492 sq ft) give good potential for remodelling or modernisation.
The bungalow does require renovation and cosmetic improvement throughout; buyers should factor in updating finishes, services verification and possible formalisation of the loft conversion. Practical positives include mains gas central heating to radiators, double glazing, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for working-from-home. Low local crime, a sought-after neighbourhood and easy access to motorway networks add to its appeal.
A straightforward freehold purchase in an affluent, comfortable area with good nearby schools. For a buyer prepared to invest in refurbishment, this property offers immediate occupancy, development potential and a strong location close to Leyland conveniences.
