This spacious two-bedroom semi‑detached bungalow on Lorton Avenue offers a rare single‑storey layout with an unusually large internal footprint and flexible living space. Two double bedrooms, separate lounge and dining room, a conservatory and a dedicated office give scope for comfortable living, home‑working or reconfiguration to suit changing needs. The attached garage, wide paved driveway and decent plot add practical outdoor space in a very low‑crime, affluent neighbourhood.
The property is offered freehold but requires renovation throughout — the kitchen and bathroom are functional but dated, and internal modernisation will be needed to bring systems and finishes up to current expectations. The home has mains gas central heating, double glazing (install date unknown) and filled cavity walls, which provide a good starting point for energy improvements.
For downsizers or buyers seeking a long‑term home with room to personalise, this bungalow represents strong potential: a mid‑20th‑century shell with good bones, generous rooms and sensible ancillary spaces including a separate external store/utility. Fast broadband and excellent mobile signal support modern lifestyles, while nearby schools, shops and transport links make day‑to‑day life convenient.
Buyers should factor renovation costs and schedules into their plans — this is a property to improve rather than move into immediately. No flooding risk is recorded and the council tax band is moderate, but purchasers should arrange their own surveys to confirm structural and services condition before committing.
