A compact two-double-bedroom bungalow located on a quiet no-through road in North Abingdon. The single-storey layout and west-facing rear garden suit downsizers or landlords seeking a low-maintenance rental with curb appeal. The property is offered freehold and with no onward chain, so it’s ready for a quick transaction.
Stand-out practical features include a larger-than-average garage, off-street parking and recent mechanical improvements — a new roof and boiler — which reduce short-term capital expenditure. The accommodation includes entrance hall with storage, living room, modern u-shaped kitchen, bathroom and two double bedrooms. The bungalow sits on a decent plot and benefits from good transport links to Oxford and the A34.
Notable constraints are the property’s small overall size (approximately 542 sq ft) and a single bathroom, which limit suitability for larger families. The EPC is rated D and the double glazing was installed before 2002, so further energy improvements may be needed to reach modern efficiency standards. Rooms are modest in scale, and while the kitchen appears modern, the bungalow was constructed in the late 1960s–1970s and may require cosmetic updating in places.
For investors, current guidance estimates a rental income around £1,450 pcm (approx. 5.4% yield at the asking price), making it a straightforward addition to a letting portfolio given low local crime, excellent mobile/broadband and strong commuter links. For buyers seeking a single-storey home close to amenities and good schools, this property offers immediate occupation with scope for sensible refurbishment to add value.
