Chain free sale for a quicker, uncomplicated purchase process

This detached two-bedroom bungalow sits on a large plot in Walpole Highway and offers expansive field views to the front and rear. The current accommodation includes a 22ft sitting room, kitchen, conservatory, shower room and two double bedrooms — all set within a mid-20th century footprint that requires updating.
A major value driver is full planning permission (Ref: 23/00476/F) for a rear and side extension plus loft conversion, allowing phased works to create four bedrooms and four bath/shower rooms. The property is chain free and has useful off-road parking and an adjoining garage, making an immediate project straightforward to start.
Buyers should note the property needs renovation: walls are cavity with assumed no insulation, the heating is oil-fired with a boiler and radiators, and broadband speeds are slow. There is a medium flood risk for the area and the wider locality shows higher-than-average deprivation indicators — these are important practical considerations for lenders, insurers and long-term running costs.
For families or buyers seeking a countryside project, this home offers strong potential to create a roomy, modern house while retaining sweeping rural outlooks. The plot size and existing permission make staged investment possible, whether you complete the permitted works in full or reconfigure within the existing footprint.
