This spacious two-bedroom detached bungalow sits on a generous corner plot in South Elmsall, offered freehold and chain-free. The traditional layout includes a lounge, separate dining room, two double bedrooms, bathroom and a sun room, with a long driveway to a larger-than-average detached garage. The house was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and benefits from double glazing (install date unknown) and mains gas central heating.
The property is a renovation opportunity: the kitchens are dated 1970s/1980s style and the interior needs modernisation throughout, giving scope to reconfigure and add value. For a buyer wanting single-storey living or a downsizer seeking space and off-street parking, the bungalow offers clear potential to create a comfortable, updated home while retaining period proportions.
Location is practical: local shops, cafes, transport links and primary/secondary schools with Good Ofsted ratings are nearby, and the A1/M62 network is accessible. Practical positives include an affordable council tax band, a large plot for gardening or extension (subject to consents), and excellent mobile and fast broadband speeds.
Important factual drawbacks: the area records higher crime levels and significant social deprivation, and the site has a medium flooding risk — both factors to consider for insurance and resale. The property requires renovation work, and some installations (glazing date, boiler age) are unknown, so buyers should budget for upgrades and a full survey.
