This well-presented, single-storey detached bungalow offers easy, low-maintenance living in the popular village of Bromham — ideal for downsizers or those seeking retirement comfort. The layout is traditional and compact, with two double bedrooms, a central sitting room that opens to a conservatory and garden, and a practical kitchen with a large larder. The property sits on a decent plot with a generous rear lawn, raised deck and a two-car driveway leading to a single garage.
Location is a standout: very low local crime, fast broadband and excellent mobile signal, with village shops, a Budgens, pubs and riverside walks on the doorstep. Bedford station is about three miles away for regular trains to London, and the M1 (J13/14) offers easy road connections. The bungalow is freehold and built in the late 1960s/early 1970s, reflecting mid-century proportions and character.
Buyers should note the home is small (about 550 sq ft) and has an EPC rating of D, so there is scope — and potential need — to improve energy efficiency and modernise fittings to current standards. The accommodation is well kept but, given its age, some updating will likely be required to suit long-term retirement living or resale expectations. No flood risk and council tax at a moderate Band D are practical positives.
Overall this bungalow is a practical, low-maintenance choice for someone seeking single-floor living in a very affluent, quiet village setting with good amenities and transport links. It offers immediate liveability with sensible potential to add value through energy and cosmetic improvements.
