Comfortable, single-storey living in a quiet cul-de-sac — this one-bedroom semi-detached bungalow is part of a small over-55s development in Penwortham. Offered chain-free and freehold, it’s ready to move into with a modern shower room, fitted bedroom furniture and a well-presented kitchen. Practical updates include a new consumer unit and an eight-year-old boiler, reducing immediate maintenance worries.
The layout is straightforward: porch and hallway with plumbing for a washing machine, a spacious living room with a door onto communal gardens, a double bedroom with built-in storage and a compact fitted kitchen. Off-road parking and paved front space make access easy, while communal gardens and on-site laundry/community facilities add low-effort outdoor and social options.
Notable positives include low council tax, below-average service charges (around £960 per year) and excellent mobile and broadband connectivity. The bungalow sits close to Preston and local amenities, with good primary and outstanding secondary school options nearby — useful if family visits are frequent.
Buyers should note the property sits on a small plot and is an average-sized home (approx. 493 sq ft), so storage and outdoor space are limited. The wider area has higher deprivation indicators; while the immediate development is quiet and well-maintained, buyers sensitive to neighbourhood profile should view in person. Overall, this property suits someone seeking straightforward, low-maintenance retirement living within easy reach of town facilities.
