A rare detached dormer bungalow on an unusually large plot, offered with no upward chain. The house provides versatile family living with a large ground-floor double bedroom, a bright lounge/diner, conservatory and a fitted kitchen plus utility. Upstairs are two more bedrooms and an additional WC; there is one principal family bathroom. Practical features include a private driveway, substantial rear garden, large outbuilding and double glazing.
The plot is a key asset: planning permission has been granted to create two detached three-bedroom houses within the garden, creating clear development or investment potential (subject to building works and consents). The current home also presents scope for improvement — the solid brick walls are likely uninsulated and some modernisation will increase comfort and value.
Location suits families and buyers seeking rural fringe living with good connectivity. Woodville offers countryside access, local parks and links to Swadlincote and Ashby-de-la-Zouch. Broadband and mobile signal are strong and council tax is described as affordable. Nearby schools are mixed in Ofsted ratings, which is important for families to review. Crime level is average.
Buyers should note material considerations: the property dates from the early 20th century and will benefit from energy-performance upgrades and general refurbishment to modern standards. The single principal bathroom downstairs (plus an upstairs WC) may be limiting for larger families. For developers or investors, the granted planning permission and large plot are the primary draws.
