Set on about 0.35 acres in a quiet hamlet on the edge of Gobowen, this three-bedroom detached bungalow offers substantial scope for renovation and extension. The plot is unusually large for the area and includes a long gated driveway, provision for a single garage and extensive rear gardens — attractive to anyone seeking outdoor space or a development opportunity.
The house is a traditional single-storey layout (approx. 894 sqft) with two reception rooms, an L-shaped kitchen and one bathroom. Double glazing was fitted after 2002; the building dates from the 1930s–1940s. Heating is by room heaters and a dual-fuel stove (mineral and wood), so a purchaser should expect to upgrade heating and services when renovating.
This property requires full renovation throughout; visible roof issues and an overgrown garden indicate immediate maintenance is needed. The site has potential for a second dwelling subject to planning consent, which may interest builders or buyers wanting to add value. Local amenities — shops, school and Gobowen train station — are within easy reach while the setting remains quiet and rural.
Buyers should budget for comprehensive works (electrical, heating, roof, finishes) and check planning feasibility for any new build. The freehold tenure, very low local crime and very affluent area are positives for long-term value once refurbished.
