Set on a generous corner plot in Oakfield, this extended three-bedroom detached bungalow offers spacious single-floor living with large gardens, garage and ample driveway parking. The layout includes a bright lounge with patio doors, a separate dining room and an extended kitchen — practical for everyday family life or a downsizer seeking convenience. The long lease (936 years) and low ground rent (£15 p.a.) are positive tenure features.
The property requires updating and modernisation throughout: cosmetic and functional refurbishment is needed, and some areas show dated finishes and signs of damp/mould in places. The construction is mid-20th century system-built with assumed lack of wall insulation; prospective buyers should budget for energy-efficiency improvements and confirm structural and services condition with professionals.
Practical details that add value: mains gas central heating with boiler and radiators, double glazing (install date unknown), private rear and side gardens and a detached garage providing secure storage or parking. Offered with no onward chain, the bungalow is well placed for schools, local shops and bus routes, making it suitable for downsizers, families and investors prepared to refurbish.
Important considerations: tenure is leasehold with a small annual ground rent, council tax band E, and the immediate area ranks high for deprivation with above-average local crime statistics. These factors, together with the renovation need, have been reflected in the asking price and should be considered by buyers and lenders. Early inspection is recommended to assess scope and costs for refurbishment or reconfiguration.
