A practical detached bungalow on a decent plot, offered freehold with off-street parking and a generous rear garden. The layout includes a large living room, two good-sized bedrooms and one shower room, suited to downsizers, first-time buyers or investors after a low-maintenance ground-floor home. Council Tax Band A and mains gas central heating help keep running costs low.
The property is a mid-20th-century, system-built home that will repay updating. The exterior and some internal finishes are dated and the house is described as needing modernization; buyers should expect cosmetic and possible improvement works rather than a move-in-perfect home. Total internal area is small (about 491 sq ft), so living space is compact despite the roomy bedroom footprints.
Practical advantages include a long driveway, enclosed rear garden with patio and shed, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for home working or staying connected. There is no flooding risk and the area has nearby shops, primary schools rated Good, and local amenities within walking distance.
Because the building is system built (1950s–1960s) and has external insulation, sensible purchasers should commission a survey to check structural condition and services before exchange. This is a sensible purchase for someone who wants a single-storey home with outside space and the scope to add value by modernising.
