Rare large-plot bungalow in Allestree — ideal for downsizers or renovation buyers..
Large corner plot with scope to extend (subject to planning)
Set on a sizeable corner plot at the end of a quiet cul‑de‑sac in desirable Allestree, this two‑bedroom detached bungalow offers comfortable single‑storey living with scope to personalise. The house benefits from a detached garage, large driveway and rear garden — a rare plot size in this area that invites extension or reconfiguration (subject to planning).
Internally the layout is traditional and practical: two well‑proportioned bedrooms, a spacious front lounge, a fitted kitchen with garden access, and a family bathroom with a classic three‑piece suite. The property has double glazing (fitted post‑2002), mains gas central heating with a boiler and radiators, and roof‑mounted solar panels that will help running costs.
The bungalow is best suited to downsizers seeking single‑floor convenience, buyers looking to modernise, or developers wanting a plot with extension potential (STPP). While the house is structurally typical of its era and well placed for parks, schools and local amenities, it does require updating in places — the kitchen and bathroom are serviceable but dated, and some areas will benefit from cosmetic modernisation.
Practical considerations: the property was constructed in the late 1960s/early 1970s, so services and finishes may reflect that period; buyers should factor renovation costs into their budget. Measurements are provided for guidance only and should be rechecked by intending purchasers before committing to expense.
