Summary - 53 CHURCH STREET DONISTHORPE SWADLINCOTE DE12 7PX
2 bed 1 bath Bungalow
Quiet country setting with garden and easy motorway access.
Detached single-storey bungalow with private driveway and single garage
This detached two-bedroom bungalow sits on a decent plot in Donisthorpe, set back from Church Street with a driveway and single garage. The single-storey layout, bay-windowed master and sliding doors to the rear garden suit buyers wanting one-floor living or those looking to downsize without losing outdoor space. Council tax is inexpensive and there is no flood risk.
The interior is broadly serviceable but dated in places: the kitchen and bathroom retain mid-20th-century fittings and will benefit from modernization to meet contemporary tastes. The property has double glazing (install date unknown) and a boiler providing dual-fuel heating (mineral and wood). Expect cosmetic updating and potential for value-adding refurbishment.
The bungalow will be sold at auction under the Modern Method of Auction. Important sale costs apply: a non-refundable reservation fee of 4.5% (minimum £6,600) plus a Buyer Information Pack fee (£349) and optional service fees up to £450. Prospective buyers should inspect carefully and check mortgage suitability before bidding.
Location strengths include a quiet hamlet setting with surrounding countryside and nearby good-rated primary schools. Transport links to the M1 and regional towns are within reasonable driving distance. Note the wider area is classified as deprived/industrious hardship, and local broadband, mobile signal and crime levels are average.
