Description

This three-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in the sought-after village of Whittle-Le-Woods offers considerable investment potential. While the property is currently in need of modernisation, it presents a unique opportunity to create a bespoke living space tailored to your taste. Ideally situated near reputable schools, local shops, and essential amenities, this home is surrounded by picturesque countryside with nature walks just minutes away. Convenient transport links, including nearby bus routes and easy access to major motorways (M6 and M61), enhance its appeal for families and commuters alike. As you enter, you are greeted by a spacious reception hall that features a large side window flooding the area with natural light. The layout includes an open staircase leading to the first floor and provides access to a lounge and inner hall. The lounge, generously sized with dual access points and a traditional fireplace, serves as a comfortable gathering space. The family bathroom features an updated walk-in shower; however, further enhancements could greatly improve functionality. The master bedroom offers ample room for furniture placement, while the kitchen is equipped with basic wall and base units alongside space for freestanding appliances. Adjacent to the kitchen is the conservatory—a versatile area looking out onto the garden—ideal for repurposing into additional living space or recreational rooms. Upstairs, two more bedrooms await; one is a well-sized double with eaves storage access, while the other is smaller yet practical. Outside, the rear garden provides significant privacy with established fruit trees, manicured lawns, and paved patio areas—ideal for outdoor entertaining or play. A single detached garage adds utility while off-road parking stretches across the driveway from front to back. This property represents not only a place to live but also an exciting opportunity to further develop and transform into an impressive family home in this tranquil yet accessible location.
