Set quietly at the end of a cul-de-sac in sought-after Dore, this sizable three-bedroom detached bungalow sits on a large plot with gardens to all four sides and a detached double garage. The single-storey layout and ample room count make it especially attractive to buyers seeking level living, easy access and private outdoor space close to countryside walks and excellent local schools.
The house offers genuine scope to modernise or extend (subject to consents) — a chance to create a contemporary, single-level home while retaining mid-century character features such as a stone fireplace and traditional garden settings. The conservatory, generous lounge/dining flow and boarded loft add practical living space and storage. The plot provides privacy, a paved rear patio with pergola, greenhouse and mature borders overlooking green views.
Important factual note: the warm-air central heating is currently not working because the boiler has been condemned; hot water remains available. Buyers should budget for heating replacement or upgrade. Other practical points: the property has double glazing installed before 2002, is freehold and chain-free, and dates from the 1950s–60s so some elements will benefit from updating. Council tax banding is described as expensive.
This is a rare detached bungalow opportunity in a very affluent, low-crime area with fast broadband and easy access to Dore village amenities, train connections and the Peak District. For those seeking downsizing, retirement living or a renovation project in a private, leafy setting, this property offers strong potential once heating and modernization works are addressed.
