Set on a generous plot in a quiet Earl Shilton cul-de-sac, this two-bedroom freehold bungalow offers immediate comfort and clear potential. The living room opens onto a large rear garden via patio doors, creating easy indoor–outdoor flow and room for extensions (subject to planning). The long driveway and car port provide convenient off-street parking for several cars.
Internally the layout is straightforward: two double bedrooms, a dining kitchen, separate bathroom and WC, and a large entrance hallway. The property dates from the mid-20th century and benefits from filled cavity walls and double glazing, but much of the glazing pre-dates 2002 and the home is served by electric storage heaters — practical but likely more costly to run than modern gas or mains systems.
This will suit buyers looking for a bungalow they can adapt: downsizers wanting single-level living, or a small family seeking space with scope to extend. Expect some modernisation and upgrades (heating, kitchen and bathroom) to personalise the home and reduce running costs. Council tax is affordable and the area is well served by good broadband, low crime and nearby schools and amenities.
