Compact two-bedroom home with good garden and garage for downsizers.
Chain free detached bungalow on single level
This chain-free detached bungalow offers a compact, single-story layout ideal for someone looking to downsize into a quiet, well-regarded suburb. The property includes two bedrooms, a living room, kitchen, bathroom, garage, driveway and a decent rear garden — all on a 519 sqft footprint that’s easy to manage.
The home requires full modernisation throughout, so it will suit a buyer happy to renovate and personalise. There is scope to extend (subject to planning), which adds potential to increase living space or reconfigure the layout. Practical positives include freehold tenure, fast broadband, very low local crime and an affordable council tax band C.
Situated in West Hallam, Ilkeston, the bungalow sits in an affluent, ageing suburban neighbourhood with good transport links into Derby and local amenities nearby. Schools in the wider area are mixed in Ofsted performance; there are excellent options within reach as well as some requiring improvement.
Buyers should note the property’s small overall size and current condition: a full refurbishment is needed and the EPC is rated D. For someone seeking a manageable single-story home with renovation potential and a garage, this presents a straightforward opportunity to create a comfortable, tailored home.
