A compact, stone-built semi-detached bungalow that suits buyers looking to downsize or secure a single-storey home with scope to personalise. The property is freehold, energy-rated EPC C and offered at £139,995 — below the Home Report valuation of £150,000. Practical extras include two external security cameras, fast broadband availability and most fixtures and integrated appliances included in the sale.
Internally the layout is traditional and straightforward: a sitting room with feature fireplace, a fitted kitchen overlooking the garden, two double bedrooms and a modern shower room. The overall floor area is small (c. 494 sq ft), so the accommodation will suit those needing modest, manageable space rather than large-family living. Room sizes are compact; Bedroom 2 and bathroom are particularly modest.
A clear advantage is planning permission already granted for a garden room (plans available on request) — a simple way to add useful space and increase enjoyment or value. The rear garden and decked patio offer private outdoor space that’s low-maintenance and sheltered. The property has been presented in neutral tones and will repay light updating or cosmetic improvement to match personal taste.
Buyers should be aware of material local factors: the immediate area is classified as very deprived with local demographic challenges and a profile of hard-pressed renting workers. That can affect resale demand and local services. The bungalow is compact and has only one shower room, so it’s not suitable for buyers needing larger family accommodation. Overall this is a pragmatic, single-storey home with clear potential for modest expansion and cosmetic enhancement.
