The single-storey layout makes daily life easy, with a large living room, breakfast kitchen, separate utility and adaptable third bedroom currently used as a home office. The wet-room style bathroom and shallow external ramp support accessibility needs.
Outside, the plot is a standout: a long tarmac driveway, large garage with a pit and an attached hobby room with fitted cupboards, plus generous garden areas and dedicated caravan/boat standing space. The private side garden is well planted and the rear patio leads to further lawn, offering room for potting, seating or quiet outdoor time.
Practical features include gas central heating, double glazing and loft access. The property is freehold with average overall size and easy-to-manage rooms, appealing to buyers seeking space without the upkeep of a larger house. Local amenities, good broadband and mobile signal add convenience.
Buyers should note material negatives: the neighbourhood records very high crime levels, which may concern some purchasers. There is only one bathroom and the house follows a traditional mid-20th-century design, so buyers seeking modern open-plan finishes may want to update interiors. The ramp is removable if not required.
Overall, this bungalow offers roomy, adaptable retirement accommodation with useful outbuildings and outdoor flexibility, balanced by the need to consider local safety and potential cosmetic updating.
