This three-bedroom semi-detached bungalow on Derwent Road offers single-level living on a generous plot, suited to buyers seeking a straightforward home with garden potential. The property sits on a decent-sized plot with a large rear garden and a broad driveway providing ample off-street parking for multiple vehicles. Interior rooms are practical and well-proportioned, with a roomy lounge/diner, fitted kitchen and a single family bathroom.
The house is freehold, connected to mains gas with a boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown) and fast broadband and excellent mobile signal — practical conveniences for everyday living. There is clear scope to add personal value: cosmetic updating and reconfiguration would modernise the layout, and there is potential for extension subject to the necessary planning permissions.
Buyers should note material points honestly: the property is in a very deprived local area classification and crime levels are average. The construction is an older system-built form and wall insulation is assumed to be absent, so buyers should budget for possible upgrades to insulation and services. The bungalow is offered as a solid, average-sized single-storey home that will suit downsizers, small families or purchasers wanting a renovation project with a large garden to enjoy.
Practical positives include low running costs via very cheap council tax, no flood risk, and easy commuting/connection benefits from local amenities and good digital connectivity. A pre-purchase survey is recommended to verify services, structural condition and scope for any extensions.
