This two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers a clear project in a sought-after Orton Longueville location. Set on a decent plot with a spacious rear garden and driveway parking, the single-storey layout includes two double bedrooms and a separate living room with garden access — suitable for downsizers or investors seeking a refurb opportunity. The property is chain free and freehold, simplifying purchase and renovation planning.
The home requires a full refurbishment throughout: internal fittings and finishes are dated, services (heating and electrics) have not been verified, and cosmetic to structural updating will be needed. The mid-20th-century construction has filled cavity walls and double glazing (installation date unknown), and the main heating is a mains-gas boiler with radiators; buyers should budget for testing and likely replacement or upgrades. At about 584 sq ft, the footprint is compact, so refurbishment should prioritise efficient use of space.
Location is a key strength. Thornleigh Drive is close to primary and secondary schools (including good-rated options), local amenities, and direct links toward the A1 and city centre. Broadband and mobile reception are strong, there is no recorded flood risk, and the area is described as very affluent. This bungalow suits an investor or buyer ready to undertake renovation and add value, or someone wanting a single-level home they can tailor to their needs.
