Summary - 5 North Road, Torworth, Retford DN22 8NW
2 bed 1 bath Detached Bungalow

Refitted kitchen and modern shower room
Triple glazing to most windows for improved thermal performance
Electric security gate, driveway and single garage
Wrap-around lawn with mature borders and patio seating
Oil-fired boiler; heating not on mains gas
Cavity walls likely uninsulated — potential retrofit needed
Slow broadband speeds in the village
Local crime reported above average — consider security measures
This detached two-bedroom bungalow offers single-storey living with practical, move-in-ready accommodation. The owners have upgraded the kitchen and shower room, fitted shutter blinds and installed triple glazing, creating a comfortable, low-maintenance home that suits those looking to downsize without compromising on space.
The plot is a strong selling point: an electric security gate opens onto a paved drive and single garage, with a wrap-around lawn and mature borders providing private outdoor space and room for gardening or relaxed seating. French doors from the dining room bring the garden into daily use.
Be clear on a few practical points: the heating system runs on an oil-fired boiler and the cavity walls appear uninsulated, so fuel costs and insulation improvements are worth budgeting for. Broadband speeds are slow in the area and crime levels are reported above average; these are relevant for buyers who work from home or prioritise local security.
Overall this bungalow suits buyers seeking single-level, comfortable living in a quiet village with good road and rail links. The property’s upgrades, garage and gardens deliver immediate appeal, while modest retrofit work (wall insulation, broadband options, heating review) could further increase comfort and future value.
