- Chain free sale, single-storey living ideal for downsizers
- Requires full modernisation; renovation and updating needed throughout

Set on a generous plot in peaceful Burton, this single-storey bungalow offers private wrap-around gardens and substantial scope for improvement. The chain-free sale and large footprint make it suitable for a buyer seeking flexible living on one level — ideal for downsizing without compromising space.
The mid-century build provides good bones: double glazing (fitted post-2002), three bedrooms, two W/Cs and a garage with driveway parking. Sliding doors open the kitchen/diner onto decking and garden, creating easy indoor–outdoor flow and scope for modern entertaining or gardening projects.
Practical considerations are straightforward and important. The house needs renovation throughout, cavity walls are assumed uninsulated, and heating is from an oil-fired boiler — factors that will affect running costs and refurbishment budget. Council tax is described as expensive and the driveway sits on an unadopted road, which may influence maintenance responsibilities.
For a buyer ready to update a detached bungalow in a very affluent, low-crime hamlet, this is a rare opportunity. There is potential to extend subject to planning consent, allowing you to tailor the layout or increase value while retaining single-level living in a tranquil countryside setting.
