Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in Thorne, this three-bedroom detached bungalow offers single-storey living with a good-sized rear garden and detached garage. The lounge features a bay window and gas fire; the footprint is about 840 sq ft — compact but practical for family or downsizing use. Local shops, transport links and several well-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach.
The property dates from the late 1960s–1970s and shows signs of age: the kitchen and bathroom are dated, the cavity walls appear to lack insulation, and some updating would be expected for modern energy efficiency and décor. There is one bathroom only and the layout is traditional, so buyers needing ensuite facilities or an open-plan layout should factor renovation costs into their plans.
Practical details: the home is freehold, heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators, and has double glazing (install date unknown). Note the area’s medium flood risk and a higher local crime level — these are material considerations for insurers and safety-conscious buyers. Council tax is described as low, and the decent plot size offers scope for garden improvements or modest extensions subject to checks.
This bungalow will suit a wide range of buyers who prioritise single-storey living and a quiet location, and who are prepared to invest in modernization. It’s a straightforward purchase for those looking to create a comfortable, updated home or a renovation project with clear potential.
