This extended two-bedroom semi-bungalow offers practical, single-storey living in a quiet Houghton Le Spring cul-de-sac. Recent improvements — including a new roof, new windows, a modern boiler and an electric garage door — mean the house is ready to move into with minimal immediate work. The open-plan lounge/diner flows into a kitchen extension, creating a bright, usable living space ideal for downsizers or those seeking lower-maintenance accommodation.
Both bedrooms are doubles with fitted wardrobes and are served by an updated shower room; the property totals approximately 67 sqm (721 sqft). Outside, mature front and rear lawns with stocked borders and a long brick-block driveway provide generous outdoor space and off-street parking that leads to the garage. The plot is a decent size for this type of property and benefits from low-crime, affluent surroundings with excellent mobile and fast broadband.
Practical considerations are straightforward: the home is freehold, chain-free and in Council Tax Band B, with mains gas central heating and double glazing. The EPC is rated D, so there may be scope to improve energy efficiency. Built in the mid-20th century with filled cavity walls, the bungalow has been modernised but retains its period layout and modest ceiling heights.
Location is well served for local shops, leisure facilities and good primary and secondary schools nearby. This bungalow will suit those looking to downsize without compromising on space, or buyers seeking a low-maintenance, ready-to-live-in home with some potential to add further energy improvements or personalise finishes.
