A compact, chain-free two-bedroom terraced bungalow within the over-60s Bridge Green development, offered with residents’ parking and an on-site community centre. The layout is practical: L-shaped lounge with patio doors to rear decking, a modern kitchen, two bedrooms and a shower room. UPVC double glazing and a recently refitted Worcester Bosch gas combi boiler add recent upgrades.
This property suits downsizers seeking low-maintenance single-storey living close to everyday amenities; an Asda supermarket sits next door and communal gardens provide pleasant outdoor space. The rear garden has decking, a lawn and some mature planting including fruit trees, with a small gate onto wider communal lawns.
Important practical points: the home is leasehold with 96 years remaining and an annual service charge of £2,928 (c. £244pcm) — due for review in 2025. The bungalow is compact at about 425 sq ft, so rooms are modest and storage is limited. The local area scores high for crime and is economically very deprived, which may affect longer-term resale and feel of the neighbourhood.
Overall, this is a straightforward, low-upkeep retirement property that delivers convenience, community facilities and a ready-to-move-in interior. It will particularly suit buyers prioritising single-storey living, proximity to shops and an established retirement community, while accepting the trade-offs of size, service costs and local area challenges.
