A semi-detached dormer bungalow on Rydalside offered chain-free and recently modernised, this home suits downsizers or small families seeking low-maintenance living close to green space and local amenities. The property provides flexible downstairs living with two ground-floor rooms plus a larger principal bedroom and washroom upstairs. The layout includes a compact modern kitchen, a bright living room, and a useful loft/first-floor room currently arranged as bedroom space.
Outside, the plot is practical rather than grand: a pebbled, low-maintenance foregarden and a private rear lawn with a fully insulated outbuilding finished with power, lighting and water — ideal for a home office, studio or utility room. Driveway parking for up to three cars is a genuine convenience for households with multiple vehicles.
The sellers have upgraded key elements: double glazing, a recent boiler in a built-in wardrobe, and contemporary fixtures and finishes throughout. Energy performance is C and the property is freehold with a low Council Tax band B, keeping running costs modest. At about 986 sq ft, room sizes are average — the lounge and kitchen are compact, and some internal reconfiguration could unlock additional living space if desired.
Notable considerations: the footprint and garden are not large by suburban standards, and the kitchen and some room proportions are modest, so buyers wanting expansive, open-plan living may need to extend or reconfigure. Overall, this is a practical, ready-to-move-in property with useful outbuilding space and strong local amenities, offered with no onward chain.
