Single-level living with garage, garden and refurbishment potential.
Chain-free detached bungalow on a decent suburban plot
This detached three-bedroom bungalow on Crowhurst Drive offers practical, single-level living in a popular Braunstone Town location. Its compact footprint (approx. 808 sq ft) sits on a decent suburban plot with private front and rear gardens, a long driveway and a larger-than-average garage with inspection pit and extra storage — ideal for a car enthusiast or secure storage.
Internally the layout is straightforward: a central hallway leads to a generous living-dining room, a breakfast kitchen and three bedrooms. The property benefits from solar panels which help reduce running costs, but heating is by electric room heaters and the Energy Performance Certificate is rated F, so buyers should budget for potential energy and boiler/heating upgrades.
Cosmetic updating is required throughout: the living room and other rooms show dated 1970s-style décor and will benefit from modernisation. The kitchen and bathroom are functional but modest; both present good scope for improvement to add value. This makes the bungalow well-suited to downsizers seeking a low-maintenance home, a small family wanting single-storey convenience, or a buyer looking for a refurbishment project with clear potential.
Chain-free and freehold, the home provides straightforward purchase terms. Local amenities, good broadband and low local crime add to its appeal, though buyers sensitive to running costs or seeking immediate high-efficiency heating should factor in likely upgrades.
