Set on a generous corner plot in sought-after Billinge, this semi-detached true bungalow offers comfortable single-storey living and strong potential. The layout includes a lounge, dining kitchen, conservatory, three bedrooms and a family bathroom across approximately 772 sq ft. Externally there are front, side and rear gardens, a rear driveway and a tandem garage.
The property is chain free and offered freehold, making it straightforward to purchase. Heating is by mains gas via a back boiler with radiators; the house benefits from double glazing and an EPC rating of D. Council Tax Band C keeps ongoing costs reasonable, and the site is subject to a small perpetual rentcharge of £7.10 per year.
The bungalow needs modernisation throughout — cosmetic updating, kitchen and bathroom renewal, and potential heating system upgrade are all likely. For buyers seeking a renovation project, the accommodation, plot size and peaceful semi-rural setting provide scope to remodel and increase value. Proximity to highly rated primary and secondary schools, local amenities and good transport links adds appeal for downsizers or those wanting single-level family living.
Purchasers should note the back boiler heating arrangement and that the house was built in the mid-20th century, which may mean further maintenance or upgrades are required. An internal inspection will best reveal the condition and the extent of works needed.
