- One bedroom terraced bungalow, approx. 402 sq ft
- Freehold with no onward chain
- Private gated driveway for multiple vehicles

- Solar panels installed; double glazing present
- Bedroom currently open‑plan; requires stud wall to divide

A compact, one‑bed bungalow offered freehold and with no onward chain — practical for someone looking to downsize or secure a low‑maintenance single-level home. The property includes solar panels, double glazing and a gated, block‑paved driveway with space for multiple vehicles, plus a private rear garden and brick storage shed.
Internally the layout is straightforward but small (approx. 402 sq ft). The living area is currently open‑plan to the bedroom and will need a stud wall to reinstate a separate bedroom. The kitchen and shower room are serviceable; multiple built‑in storage cupboards and a loft hatch add useful space.
Buyers should be clear about the neighbourhood and some fabric issues: the surrounding area is very deprived with higher crime levels than average, and the original solid brick walls are assumed to lack cavity insulation — further insulation/energy upgrades may be needed despite the existing solar panels. The house dates from the 1930s–1940s and offers good scope for targeted improvement rather than a full renovation.
This property will suit someone prioritising single‑level living, private parking and low council tax, who is comfortable with modest internal space and can carry out modest works (reinstating a bedroom wall, focusing on insulation/finish upgrades). It represents an affordable, no‑chain purchase with immediate practical benefits and potential to increase comfort and efficiency with relatively limited investment.
