A detached, versatile bungalow offering a main 2/3-bedroom home plus an adjoining one-bedroom annexe — ideal for multi-generational living, carers or supplementary rental income. The property sits on a large plot with a low-maintenance garden, extensive raised sun terrace and glass-panelled balustrade that capture wide views over the Torrs and surrounding countryside. Practical features include a bright conservatory, a 19ft kitchen/breakfast room, two underfloor store rooms with light and power, boarded loft storage and off-street parking with a private driveway.
The annexe is a self-contained open-plan bedroom/kitchen/sitting room with vaulted ceiling, shower room and its own access; it could accommodate an elderly relative, provide independent space for older children, or be used as a lettable/working-from-home unit. The property also benefits from gas central heating, uPVC double glazing and solar panels that reduce electricity usage (no feed-in tariff).
Notable negatives are factual: the property falls in a high flooding-risk area and the cavity walls appear to have no added insulation (as built), which may affect running costs and require improvement. Services (gas, electric, water) are a single supply for both house and annexe, which limits separate billing. The wider area shows indicators of deprivation and the house dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so some fixtures and finishes may be dated and could benefit from updating.
Viewings are recommended to appreciate the layout, terrace and scope for adaptation. This home will particularly suit families needing flexible accommodation or buyers seeking an income-producing annexe, but purchasers should factor in flood risk and potential retrofit works for insulation.
