A compact detached bungalow on a private lane in Heanor offering single-level living and straightforward ownership. The property is chain free, with a detached garage, front and rear gardens and gas central heating, making it an easy move for someone looking to downsize or an investor seeking a low-maintenance let.
Internally the layout is simple: through lounge/diner, breakfast kitchen with garden outlook, one double bedroom and a shower room. The home is habitable but dated and will reward cosmetic updating and targeted improvements — new finishes, kitchen modernisation and possibly increased insulation in the cavity walls would add value and comfort.
Location is practical for local shops, bus routes and nearby schools, and broadband and mobile signal are strong. Be candid: the immediate area is classified as very deprived with higher local crime rates, so buyers prioritising community profile should consider the local context. The council tax is very low, and the freehold tenure plus no upward chain help simplify purchase.
This bungalow suits a downsizer wanting a manageable home with scope to personalise, or an investor seeking a modest purchase with scope to improve rental appeal. Viewings will best show the property’s layout and potential; budget for cosmetic works and cavity insulation if upgrading energy performance is a priority.
