Characterful two-bedroom home with garage and generous garden in quiet suburb.
Two double bedrooms in a dormer layout, flexible first-floor space
This deceptively spacious two-bedroom dormer bungalow sits on Park Lane in Duston, offering a comfortable, traditional layout for a small family. The ground floor has a large lounge centred on a log burner and a refitted kitchen/dining room with French doors that open onto a paved patio and a generous lawned garden. Two double bedrooms occupy the first floor, providing flexible sleeping or home-working space.
Practical features include mains gas central heating, double glazing, off-road parking and a single detached garage. The rear garden is a standout: patio and decked areas lead to a substantial lawn and a brick-built store — great for children, pets or vegetable beds. The property’s size (about 721 sq ft) and freehold tenure make it straightforward for buyers wanting an easy-to-manage home in a quiet, established suburb.
Buyers should note the bungalow dates from the mid-20th century and some elements may benefit from updating: glazing was installed before 2002 and cavity walls likely have no added insulation. While presented well, the house offers further refurbishment potential to improve energy efficiency and modernise finishes. Council tax and local services are affordable, and the area is well served by Good-rated primary and secondary schools.
Overall, this is a practical, characterful home for someone seeking a peaceful suburban base with private outdoor space and garage parking, and scope to add value through selective updating.
