Set on a large plot in coveted Canal Foot, this detached mid‑20th‑century bungalow offers immediate coastal views across Morecambe Bay and scope to create a much larger family home. The site has granted planning permission for a detached four‑bedroom house with garage, making it a clear option for self‑builders or buyers seeking a rebuild. The existing bungalow is habitable but dated, so buyers should allow for refurbishment or demolition costs.
The property is chain free and freehold, with off‑street parking and generous front and rear gardens that extend to fields and distant fells. The bungalow’s living room and front bedroom both take advantage of the bay aspect; the rear kitchen overlooks the garden and the Hoad Monument. Services include mains gas, electricity and drains, and flood risk is low.
Notable drawbacks are candidly practical: the house shows its age and requires updating, the gardens are overgrown and need maintenance, and the local area records above‑average crime and relative deprivation. Those factors lower the immediate rental or resale premium but also reduce entry price for a site with excellent development potential. Broadband and mobile signal are strong, and nearby primary and secondary schools are rated Good.
Overall this is a practical opportunity: renovate the bungalow for coastal living, or use the granted permission to build a modern four‑bedroom home with spectacular bay views. Buyers should budget for renovation or construction costs and factor local area statistics into investment plans.
