This substantially extended detached bungalow offers single‑storey comfort with generous, modern living spaces — ideal for those looking to downsize without compromise. The home is newly renovated and finished to a high specification, centred on a 20 x 25ft open-plan kitchen/dining/living area with skylights and bifold doors that connect directly to the landscaped rear garden.
The layout is versatile: a large master suite with fitted wardrobes and ensuite, plus two further double rooms (one currently used as a second living area) and a central room suitable for a study or storage. Practical features include a separate utility, double glazing, mains gas boiler with radiators, off-street parking and a generous plot with a paved patio, lawn, decks and an insulated summer house currently fitted out as a home bar.
Buyers should note this is a mid‑20th‑century solid brick build (c.1930–49) and, while renovated internally, the original solid walls likely lack cavity insulation. The property has a flat roof element and mid‑century construction that may require ongoing maintenance or further upgrading to improve thermal performance. EPC C and Council Tax Band C indicate moderate running costs compared with older, unrefurbished stock.
Positioned in Alvaston with good road links (A50/A52/M1) and local amenities within walking distance, the bungalow suits those seeking low‑step living, entertaining space and a large garden. It represents a ready-to-move-into option for downsizers wanting modern, single‑floor accommodation but with scope to improve energy efficiency further.
