This detached two-bedroom bungalow sits on a generous plot in West End, offering single-storey living with a private enclosed rear garden and conservatory. The layout is traditional and easy to live in, with a bright living room, a separate conservatory, and a useful single garage plus a large driveway for multiple cars. Offered with no forward chain, it’s well suited to downsizers or buyers seeking a low-maintenance home close to green spaces and local amenities.
The property is structurally straightforward — cavity walls, double glazing (fitted after 2002) and mains gas central heating via boiler and radiators — and has been kept in good condition. Practical features include a fitted kitchen with oven and hob, a shower-room, and an outbuilding/workshop for extra storage or hobby use. The garden is private and low-maintenance, making it easy to enjoy outdoor space without heavy upkeep.
Buyers should note a few material considerations: the property has a single bathroom, broadband speeds are reported as very slow, and the area records above-average crime. The bungalow dates from the 1950s–1960s and offers scope for cosmetic updating or modest refurbishment to increase value. EPC rating D and council tax band D reflect current running costs.
Overall, this bungalow presents a practical, chain-free purchase in a sought-after location near good schools, transport links and walking routes. It will particularly appeal to someone wanting simple, single-level living with off-street parking and garden privacy, and to buyers prepared to carry out light modernisation to personalise the home.
