A substantial five-bedroom detached bungalow set on a wrap-around garden in peaceful Skirlaugh. The single-storey layout and large lounge with direct garden access suit families wanting accessible living and indoor-outdoor flow. The kitchen-dining and separate utility provide practical everyday space while a generous master bedroom includes an en suite.
Built in the mid-20th century, the property retains mid-century character — a brick fireplace, curved ceiling detail and spacious rooms — but will suit buyers prepared to modernise. The cavity walls are assumed to have no added insulation and double glazing installation date is unknown; upgrading insulation and some internal finishes would improve comfort and running costs.
Practical strengths include off-street parking, underfloor heating served by a mains gas boiler, excellent mobile signal and fast broadband — useful for remote working. There is one family bathroom for five bedrooms, and council tax is high; these are important factors for larger households. Overall, this bungalow offers versatile accommodation and strong potential for a growing family prepared to invest in targeted improvements.
