Multiple reception rooms; garden doors from main rooms
Large plot with terrace, lawn, summer house and sheds

Area classified as deprived — consider local services and market
Set in a quiet Wrentham cul-de-sac, this detached mid‑20th‑century bungalow offers flexible single‑storey living with a self‑contained annex — ideal for multigenerational families or guest accommodation. The contemporary kitchen/diner with island is a central social space, while multiple reception rooms and garden‑facing doors encourage easy indoor–outdoor living.
The plot is a strong asset: gated side access, generous off‑street parking and a large rear garden with sun‑drenched terrace, lawn, summer house and timber sheds provide space for children, hobbies and entertaining. Practical features include double glazing (installed post‑2002) and gas central heating via boiler and radiators.
Buyers should note important practical considerations: the property is recorded as having a high flooding risk and sits in an area described as deprived — both factors that may affect insurance and resale. The listing indicates partial cavity wall insulation (assumed) and a construction date in the late 1970s/early 1980s, so some updating or further energy improvements could be beneficial.
Overall, this bungalow suits families or those needing flexible accommodation who value single‑level living and outdoor space close to village amenities and the heritage coast. The annex increases rental or multi‑occupancy options but viewing and professional surveys are advised given the flood risk and age of the property.
