Description

This detached bungalow presents a valuable opportunity for renovation, set on a desirable road in South West Dunstable. With the potential for significant development, including expansion to both the rear and loft spaces (subject to planning permission), this property is ideal for investors and those looking to create their dream home. The absence of an upper chain facilitates a smoother transition for prospective buyers. The layout currently features an entrance porch and hall that guide you into a spacious reception area. The generous 25ft lounge is designed with two steps leading down, creating a unique sense of space and flow as it opens into a conservatory overlooking the rear garden. The kitchen diner serves as the heart of the home, offering views into the outdoor space and ample room for reconfiguration to enhance functionality. Comprising four bedrooms and two bathrooms situated on one side of the bungalow, all rooms have great potential for updates and personal touches. Each space awaits your vision to transform it into modern living quarters that can cater to various lifestyle needs. Externally, the property features a sloped driveway leading to a sizeable 28ft garage, complemented by additional block-paved hard standing at the front. The mature rear garden is characterized by its trees, shrubs, and lawn area, providing a tranquil retreat that can be revitalized with landscaping efforts. Conveniently located near local shops and bus routes, this property also boasts easy access to M1 junction 9, enhancing its appeal for commuting purposes. This bungalow not only offers comfortable living but also represents an exciting investment opportunity in a coveted location with plenty of room for value growth through refurbishment and reimagining.
