Single-level three-bedroom bungalow on corner plot with garage and scope to modernise and extend.
Three bedroom detached bungalow on corner plot with garden to three sides
Set on a corner plot in Needham Market, this three-bedroom detached bungalow offers comfortable single-level living and clear potential for improvement. The layout includes a spacious living room, practical kitchen, shower room, cloakroom and three bedrooms, arranged for easy daily use. A garage and driveway provide private parking and useful storage.
The property dates from the late 1970s and is largely intact in its original style, making it an attractive buy-for-improvement or ideal for a downsize buyer seeking a low-maintenance home. Double glazing is fitted; heating is by an oil-fired boiler and radiators (not on a community supply). The bungalow sits in a quiet, affluent small-town area with good local amenities and rail links to Ipswich and beyond.
There are some maintenance and updating considerations: carpeting appears dated and there is a note of potential damp in the living room area. The boiler is a floor-standing oil model (age unknown) and future running costs should be considered. The single shower room serves the whole property and, while functional, could be modernised to add value.
On the positive side, the bungalow benefits from a corner garden with lawn and space on three sides, a garage with up-and-over door, and scope to extend (subject to consent). Offered chain-free, it’s well placed for local schools, shops and countryside walks — a practical, peaceful home for downsizers or buyers looking to add value through updating.
