Set back behind a gated front garden, this semi-detached 3-bedroom bungalow in East-the-Water offers a comfortable single-storey layout and a large south-facing garden — a real asset for families who value outdoor space. The extended open-plan kitchen/diner is the heart of the home, with Velux roof lights, French doors to the patio and a wood-burning stove that creates a welcoming entertaining area. The bright living room looks out over the lawn and provides a relaxed family hub.
The home has genuine scope to personalise: the accommodation is well-proportioned but reflects its 1960s–70s construction and would benefit from modernising in places. There is one family bathroom and older double glazing (installed before 2002), so buyers should factor potential upgrade costs for energy efficiency and comfort. Heating is mains gas via a boiler and radiators and the property is freehold with no flood risk.
Outside is a standout feature — an extensive lawn with mature borders, a large south-facing patio for al fresco dining, plus a summerhouse, greenhouse and shed. Rear pedestrian access offers informal parking potential, but the property relies mainly on on-street parking to the front. Location-wise you’re close to local shops, a well-regarded primary school and good road links to the A39.
This bungalow suits couples or families seeking a comfortable, single-level home with substantial outdoor space and the opportunity to add value through targeted updating and personalisation. Be straightforward about the single bathroom and on-street parking when considering viewings; for those seeking garden space and one-floor living, this is a practical and adaptable option.
