This fully refurbished two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow on Sunniside Drive sits on a desirable corner plot with wrap-around gardens, driveway and a detached garage. The interior has been renovated to a modern finish with a handleless kitchen, new appliances, bespoke fitted wardrobes and a contemporary bathroom with a walk-in shower — a true move-in ready home for downsizers or buyers wanting a single-storey layout.
The extended dining room with French doors provides excellent indoor–outdoor flow to the private, low-maintenance rear garden, while the living room’s bay window brings natural light into a comfortable seating area. Practical upgrades include replacement floor timbers, updated electrics, spotlights throughout and new solid oak doors, reducing immediate maintenance needs.
There is scope for further development — the corner plot and detached garage offer potential for extension or conversion (subject to planning permission). Buyers should note the double glazing was installed before 2002 and the property was originally constructed in the 1930s–1940s, which may be relevant for long-term maintenance planning.
Location benefits include proximity to Cleadon Hills, local walking routes and a selection of well-rated primary and secondary schools. Practical features such as mains gas central heating, fast broadband and freehold tenure make this a convenient, turnkey option in a sought-after area, though local crime levels are above average and should be considered when assessing the neighbourhood.
