Designed for active over-55s, this semi-detached dormer bungalow offers low-maintenance living with modern finishes and practical comforts. The ground-floor layout includes a level-access lounge via French doors, an award-winning LEICHT kitchen with NEFF appliances and DURAVIT sanitary ware, and a double bedroom; upstairs is a large master with en-suite. At about 1,034 sq ft the home feels spacious without excess to manage.
Built in 2021 to high energy-efficiency standards, the property promises lower running costs and comes with a two-year builder warranty plus a 10-year LABC warranty. Practical extras include a detached garage with an EV charging point and a block-paved driveway. The plot is small and landscaped to reflect the surrounding area, so outdoor upkeep is minimal.
Be clear about location and local context: this is an exclusive over-55s development in a hamlet-setting close to amenities, but the settlement is relatively isolated which may mean fewer local services on foot. Recorded crime levels are above average for the area — a relevant consideration if neighbourhood security is a priority.
This new-build bungalow suits buyers seeking a comfortable, energy-efficient retirement base with modern specification and low maintenance. Part-exchange options are offered by the developer to simplify moving. While the home is turnkey, its smaller garden and semi-rural location should be weighed against the benefits of new construction and warranty protection.
