Single-storey living on one level makes this three-bedroom bungalow a practical choice for downsizers or those seeking ground-floor convenience. Set in a quiet cul-de-sac about half a mile from Chard town centre, the home offers easy access to shops, services and local schools while avoiding steps inside the main accommodation.
The layout includes a light sitting room, separate kitchen, conservatory overlooking the rear garden, three bedrooms (one with en-suite access through the utility), and a family bathroom. A single garage and gravelled driveway provide off-street parking; the rear garden is low-maintenance with paved areas, a small lawn and shed — simple to manage or personalise.
The property is chain-free and freehold, with an EPC band C. It will benefit from updating throughout: cosmetic refresh, modern fittings and general modernisation are needed to lift presentation and value. Services are conventional mains gas central heating and double glazing (install dates unknown).
Practical considerations: the local area scores as relatively deprived with higher local crime rates than average. Broadband speeds are average, though mobile signal is excellent. These factors, together with the renovation requirement, are reflected in the asking price and make the bungalow well-suited to buyers seeking a straightforward, single-level home to improve over time.
