Generous plot bungalow needing full renovation — garage and good road links.
Detached bungalow on a generous plot with driveway
Set on a generous plot in Ferrers Way, this detached two-bedroom bungalow is a straightforward downsizing opportunity for buyers willing to renovate. The single-storey layout and good-sized lounge/diner offer comfortable living without stairs, while the detached garage with electric door and driveway give secure parking and useful storage.
The property requires a full renovation throughout. There is currently no working central heating boiler — radiators are fed from a living-room coal fire — and the kitchen and bathroom are dated. Double glazing is present but installation date is unknown. Buyers should budget for a new heating system, full kitchen and bathroom renewal, redecoration and likely electrical and plumbing upgrades.
For a purchaser prepared to refurbish, the plot provides scope to improve and possibly extend (subject to planning), which could add significant value. The bungalow sits close to local amenities and strong road links to the A38, with fast broadband available and generally low council tax costs. The area is classified as ageing suburbanites/retirement living, which suits quieter lifestyles.
This home is best for downsizers, cash buyers or investors seeking an affordable freehold property with clear scope for improvement. Viewings are recommended to appreciate plot size and layout, and to assess renovation works required before committing.
