This two-bedroom true bungalow occupies a prominent corner plot in a sought-after, established Orrell street. The single-storey layout suits downsizers or investors seeking straightforward accommodation with genuine extension or reconfiguration potential (subject to planning). Recent practical upgrades — a new roof, cavity wall insulation, gas central heating and full double glazing — reduce immediate major costs.
Internally the plan is compact and efficient: a central hallway, lounge, modern fitted kitchen, shower room and two double bedrooms. The kitchen is contemporary and bright, but the property overall requires some general modernisation and cosmetic updating to reach its full potential. The bungalow is offered with no onward chain which can speed a purchase.
Outside the plot is a clear asset: generous lawns to the front, side and rear, a large paved patio, driveway and detached single garage. The corner plot provides privacy and scope for extension or remodelling (subject to consents). Local amenities, good primary schools and easy access to the M6/M58 make this a practical base for commuters.
Buyers should note the tenure is leasehold (999 years from 1959) and the home is described as needing renovation—budget for cosmetic and possible modern-system work. EPC rating D and council tax band B are pragmatic but reflect the property’s current condition.
