2 bed 1 bath Semi-Detached Bungalow
Compact single-storey home with garden and parking, ready to modernise.
- No upward chain; available for a quick sale
- Single-storey layout ideal for downsizers
- Compact footprint: approximately 582 sq ft
- Gas central heating and double glazing present
- Double glazing installed pre-2002; may be less efficient
- Cavity walls assumed uninsulated — insulation potential
- Kitchen and shower room functional but dated
- Enclosed rear garden and off-street parking
Tucked at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers single-level living with no upward chain — attractive for downsizers seeking low-stairs convenience. The lounge at the rear opens to an enclosed garden; the front offers off-street parking and a low-maintenance gravelbed with shrubs. Gas central heating and existing double glazing provide basic comfort.
At about 582 sq ft, the layout is compact and straightforward: small hall, front kitchen, rear lounge, two bedrooms and a shower room. The footprint suits someone moving from a larger home who wants a manageable plot and simple day-to-day living, or a buyer willing to refresh fittings to suit personal taste.
There are practical points to note: the home was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s and external cavity walls are shown as uninsulated (assumed). The double glazing was installed before 2002 and some internal fixtures and finishes are dated — the kitchen and shower room are serviceable but not contemporary. These are realistic upgrade opportunities to improve comfort and reduce running costs.
Location is a genuine benefit — close to local shops, bus routes and road links to Derby, Long Eaton and the M1, with fast broadband available. The property is freehold, council tax band B and carries no flooding risk. Overall, this is a compact, low-maintenance bungalow with immediate availability and clear potential for modest modernisation.
