Tucked at the end of a quiet close, this substantial three-bedroom detached bungalow sits on a generous corner plot and includes a detached double garage and driveway. The single-level layout offers a large lounge, separate dining room, kitchen with pantry, two porches and three good-sized bedrooms — a comfortable layout for family living or a single-floor future-proof home.
The property has been maintained over the years but now requires updating throughout; cosmetic and functional renovation will let a buyer modernise the kitchen, bathroom and finishes to personal taste. The bungalow benefits from double glazing, gas central heating and vacant possession with no onward chain, making it straightforward to purchase and adapt.
Practical strengths include excellent mobile signal and fast broadband, decent garden space front and rear, useful external store and WC, and freehold tenure. Notable constraints are a single bathroom (four-piece suite), council tax band above average, and the need for renovation work — buyers should allow budget for updating services, finishes and possible redecoration. The property dates from the late 1960s–1970s, so roof, services and insulation should be checked if relevant to planned works.
This bungalow will suit families seeking generous single-storey accommodation in a comfortable, well-served suburb or investors aiming for refurbishment and rental income. Its size, plot and garage give clear potential; buyers wanting a turnkey, modern home should expect to carry out upgrades.
