Set on a very large plot on the easterly edge of Ripon, this detached five‑bedroom bungalow offers substantial single‑level living with wide countryside views. The layout includes multiple reception rooms, an open-plan kitchen/dining area and a separable annexe ideal for dependent relatives or long‑term rental income. Off‑street parking and a large paved driveway add practical convenience for families and visitors.
Built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, the house has a generous internal footprint (approx. 3,607 sq ft) and mature grounds extending to open fields, giving privacy and scope for landscaping or extension subject to consent. The accommodation suits families who value one‑level living with space for home working or guests; it also appeals to downsizers who want roomy, accessible accommodation without compromising outdoor amenity.
There are some important practical points to note. Insulation is likely limited (cavity walls as built, assumed uninsulated) and the double glazing was installed before 2002, so there is scope and cost for energy‑efficiency upgrades. Broadband is slow in the area despite excellent mobile coverage. Council tax is described as quite expensive. These factors should be weighed against the strong location, school catchment and substantial plot.
Overall this property offers rare single‑storey space on a large, private plot close to Ripon’s amenities and top local schools. It represents good potential for a family requiring flexible accommodation, or for buyers prepared to invest in modernisation to improve comfort and running costs.
