Set on an elevated plot with far-reaching views, this double-fronted mid-20th century bungalow has been substantially upgraded to provide a comfortable, single-story home. The rear extension houses a bright 15ft kitchen with a large lantern roof and Rangemaster cooker, flowing from a dining room that links to a front living room with a multi-fuel stove. Oak internal doors, recent boiler (2019) and uPVC double glazing complete the updated specification.
There are two good-size bedrooms served by a recently refitted shower room with a walk-in enclosure. The south-westerly garden includes a raised sun terrace designed to make the most of the views; the plot is small but the outdoor space is private and low-maintenance. On-street parking is available nearby.
Practical points to note: the property is freehold with council tax band B and sits within a coal mining reporting area — further specialist searches are recommended. The neighbourhood is classified as a deprived area, though local schooling includes several good and one outstanding primary school. Broadband and mobile signals are reported as fast and excellent respectively.
This bungalow will suit downsizers or buyers seeking a renovated, single-level home with character and modern fittings. Its elevated outlook, sizeable living rooms and refurbished kitchen/shower room offer immediate move-in appeal, while the small plot and on-street parking suit those prioritising low garden maintenance over large grounds.
