Starter home near Downham Market with large garden and clear improvement potential.
Generous mature front garden with fruit trees and powered shed
End-terrace located at the end of a quiet lane
Two-bedroom bungalow; compact overall size (~560 sq ft)
Requires redecoration and some modernisation throughout
Heating via electric room heaters — consider efficiency upgrades
Kitchen built with single-skin external walls (thermal concern)
Solid brick walls assumed uninsulated — potential for insulation work
Freehold ownership and very low council tax
Tucked at the end of a quiet lane in Hilgay, this two-bedroom end-terrace offers peaceful, semi-rural living with a generous, mature garden. The lawn, established fruit trees and powered garden shed create an attractive outdoor space for gardening and relaxation. Its compact footprint makes it easy to maintain.
Internally the layout is traditional and straightforward: lounge, kitchen, two bedrooms and a bathroom. The main bedroom has built-in wardrobes. The property is presented with some dated decor and would benefit from redecoration and modest updating to maximise comfort and value.
Practical considerations: heating is by electric room heaters and the kitchen is constructed with single-skin external walls; the property’s original solid brick walls are assumed to have no insulation. These facts mean buyers should factor in potential energy-efficiency upgrades. Council tax is very low and the home is freehold.
This is a good option for a first-time buyer or small household seeking an affordable, liveable home with garden space and scope to improve. It also suits investors after a rental in a quiet village close to Downham Market’s amenities and rail links.
