Description

This three-bedroom detached bungalow offers a unique renovation opportunity in a quiet, private setting just a short stroll from the bustling town centre. The property features recently updated windows and doors, which may improve its energy performance rating. With the owner motivated to sell, this presents a compelling chance for buyers looking to invest in a home with potential. Sitting on a spacious plot, the bungalow includes a detached garage and driveway parking, ensuring ample space for vehicles. The enclosed gardens are bordered by mature hedging, providing both seclusion and tranquility. Inside, you'll find an entrance hall leading to a cozy lounge, a newly fitted kitchen that opens to a conservatory equipped with a W.C., three bedrooms, and a recently renovated wet room. There is considerable scope for enhancement here; buyers have the option to extend or reconfigure the layout (subject to necessary consents) to suit their personal style and needs. This flexibility makes it particularly appealing for those wishing to put their own stamp on their living space. The front garden is generously sized and features driveway access that ultimately leads to the single garage. At the back, the fully enclosed garden requires minimal upkeep with its combination of patio and gravel areas, interspersed with established shrubs and trees that contribute to its charm. Located just off Trowbridge’s town centre on Islington, this bungalow enjoys easy access to an array of local amenities including supermarkets, shops, cafés, and several primary and secondary schools. Trowbridge railway station is within walking distance, providing convenient connections to Bath, Bristol, and Westbury's mainline services. This area combines everyday conveniences with the benefits of an established residential community—creating an accessible environment for homeowners while also presenting solid investment potential.
