This substantial detached bungalow sits on an unusually large plot of approximately three-quarters of an acre, offering immediate outdoor space and scope for reshaping the grounds. The house provides four bedrooms, two bathrooms and generous reception rooms across split levels — a flexible layout well suited to a growing family needing space for home and hobbies.
The property is solid brick, double-glazed and heated by a mains-gas boiler and radiators, but much of the interior is dated and will benefit from a comprehensive refurbishment. There is clear potential to personalise the home and add value, subject to any necessary planning permissions for alterations or further development of the grounds.
Practical benefits include a long drive, single garage and a summer house; nearby schools rated Good and Outstanding add appeal for families. Important negatives to note are slow broadband speeds, above-average local crime levels, an area with higher deprivation, and assumed solid walls with no insulation — all factors that may affect running costs and renovation scope.
Overall this is a rare plot-led opportunity for buyers willing to invest in modernisation. It suits a family seeking long-term space and potential, or an experienced purchaser looking to unlock value through targeted refurbishment and planning-led enhancements.
