Set well back from the road on an individual plot in the village heart, this three-bedroom detached bungalow offers low-maintenance, single-storey living with good privacy. The house is immaculately presented with replacement UPVC windows and a recently redone and painted external render. A south-facing array of solar panels reduces bills and currently pays an estimated £750–£800 per year under a feed-in tariff (tariff ends 2037).
Rooms are generously proportioned for the property size: a spacious living room with patio doors, a practical kitchen and separate utility, plus a dining room. Accommodation suits downsizers or those seeking a comfortable village base; note there is a single bathroom serving three bedrooms. The bungalow was built c.1976–82 with cavity walls and modern double glazing added after 2002.
Practical features include an adjoining double garage/workshop (6.20m x 4.20m) with power and lighting, a wide shingle driveway providing multiple off-road parking spaces, and private drainage. Heating is by oil-fired boiler and radiators — efficient but reliant on oil supply and market prices. The property has an EPC rating of D.
Considerations: the home uses private drainage (buyer responsibility for maintenance) and oil heating, which can mean higher running costs compared with mains gas. The EPC D rating indicates some energy improvement potential. The local area is classed as a remoter, agricultural community and shows higher local deprivation measures, balanced by good local schooling and low crime. Overall this is a well-presented, individually built bungalow offering low-maintenance village living with garaging and solar income potential.
