Description

This semi-detached dormer bungalow presents a prime opportunity for renovation and investment. Nestled in a tranquil cul-de-sac in Rothwell, the property occupies a spacious corner plot that features well-established gardens and pleasant views over adjacent fields, providing a serene backdrop for potential enhancements. The ground floor includes a welcoming living room with ample natural light from its large double-glazed window and a cosy feature fireplace. Adjacent to it, the versatile dining room currently serves as an inviting space for meals but could easily be transformed into a second sitting area or study. The kitchen is practical, featuring traditional wall and base units with space for various appliances, alongside direct access to the side entrance. A conservatory extends the living space outdoors, offering double-glazed windows and patio doors that lead directly to an enclosed rear garden—perfect for appreciating the peaceful surroundings throughout the year. The first floor contains two additional double bedrooms, each with valuable eaves storage that could be optimized further, making them ideal candidates for customization or expansion. Outside, the long driveway accommodates multiple vehicles while leading to a detached garage that offers secure storage options. The expansive gardens boast mature shrubs and a stone-flagged patio area suitable for outdoor entertaining or quiet enjoyment. With significant potential for extension or development (subject to planning permissions), this property invites creative vision. Its location benefits from both tranquility and accessibility to local amenities, making it an appealing choice for families or investors looking to unlock value through renovations.
