Chain-free three-bedroom bungalow with private 50ft mooring and large garden.
Impressive living room with direct river views
Set on Friary Island with direct river frontage, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers generous single-storey living and exceptional outdoor space for entertaining. The impressive living room faces the river and floods the home with light; split-level terracing and a landscaped garden lead down to your own private 50ft mooring. A gated driveway provides parking for several vehicles and a garage with light and power adds useful storage or workshop space. Offered chain free, the layout includes two/three reception rooms, a kitchen with breakfast area and a large basement that adds considerable scope for storage or conversion (subject to consents).
This home will appeal to buyers seeking a peaceful, waterside setting close to local schools and services. The plot is large and well maintained, and the property’s mid-century construction and double glazing give it character and solid bones. The generous room sizes and flexible reception layout make it straightforward to adapt the house to suit family life, downsizing owners or those seeking a riverside retreat with practical vehicle access.
Important practical considerations: the property lies in a high flood-risk area, which affects insurance costs and may require ongoing flood resilience measures. The house was built in the late 1960s/early 1970s and has cavity walls with no confirmed insulation — energy-efficiency improvements and general updating may be needed. Council tax is described as expensive. These are material factors to allow for when budgeting for ownership and any future renovation.
In short, this is a rare, chain-free riverside bungalow with private mooring, extensive outdoor space and strong potential for buyers prepared to manage flood risk and invest in thermal upgrades and modernisation.
