A two-bedroom detached bungalow set on a decent plot in sought-after Ponteland, offering generous single-story living and genuine scope to add value. The property retains mid-century character, including original detailing and a conservatory-style reception, and benefits from a garage, driveway and solar panels.
This home requires full modernisation throughout: cosmetic updating, heating and services review, and general renovation work are needed. It is sold by the Modern Method of Auction — buyers must complete within 56 days, view a Buyer Information Pack (£300) and pay a non-refundable Reservation Fee of 4.5% of the purchase price (minimum £6,600). Consider mortgage readiness and these additional auction costs before bidding.
For downsizers or buyers seeking a renovation project in an affluent, low-crime area, the bungalow is a strong canvas. Built mid-20th century with filled cavity walls and double glazing (install date unknown), it sits freehold with mains gas boiler and radiators. No flooding risk and good local schools add practical appeal, though council tax is above average.
