This detached two-bedroom bungalow offers convenient single-storey living in desirable Allestree, ideal for downsizers seeking low-maintenance, well-located accommodation. The property benefits from a modern fitted kitchen, a generous lounge and two bedrooms, all served by a single shower room. At about 636 sq ft the layout is compact but practical, with a lawned rear garden and patio for outdoor relaxation.
Practical highlights include a private driveway and a detached garage with light and power, mains gas central heating and double glazing replaced after 2002. The bungalow sits in a very affluent, low-crime area with excellent mobile and broadband signals, close to popular parks, reputable schools and local amenities at Park Farm — a strong draw for comfortable everyday living.
Buyers should note the bungalow was constructed in the late 1970s/early 1980s and has cavity walls with partial insulation (assumed). While presented well, the property’s age means future buyers may want to budget for incremental upgrades (insulation improvements, modernisation over time) rather than immediate major works. Accommodation is average-sized overall and the home has a single shower room only.
An internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and condition. The freehold tenure, affordable council tax banding and the quiet, established neighbourhood make this a straightforward move for anyone looking to downsize without sacrificing local amenities and green space.
