Chain-free detached bungalow on a generous plot
This detached two-bedroom bungalow in Broomhill offers single-storey living on a generous plot, sold with no onward chain. The property has a traditional layout with a lounge/diner, separate kitchen, bathroom and useful loft access — practical for downsizers who want ground-floor convenience and space for garden hobbies.
Externally the home presents well with mature front and rear gardens, an enclosed driveway and an attached garage providing secure parking and storage. There is period charm in the living room fireplace and arched alcoves; with its mid-century build and large plot, the bungalow also offers clear potential to update or reconfigure to suit contemporary tastes.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property uses coal-fired boiler heating to radiators, double glazing was installed before 2002, and cavity walls are assumed uninsulated. These factors mean likely energy upgrades and maintenance work will be needed. Local area indicators show above-average crime and an ageing suburban neighbourhood, important for buyer consideration.
For purchasers seeking a straightforward purchase in Castleford — particularly those downsizing or looking for a renovation project with good outdoor space — this bungalow is a practical and well-located opportunity. Verify services and appliances, and allow for refurbishment and energy-improvement costs when budgeting.
