Description

This three-bedroom detached dormer bungalow, available with no onward chain, is positioned on a substantial plot and offers a wealth of renovation potential. The property features generously sized wrap-around gardens and off-street parking, providing a great opportunity for buyers looking to tailor their future home to personal taste and preferences. Over the years, this family residence has been cherished, showing signs of both love and the need for modernisation. The flexible layout spans two floors, making it suitable for various buyers interested in undertaking a rewarding refurbishment project in this desirable North East location. Recent upgrades include new windows and external doors as well as a modern gas central heating system with a Baxi combi boiler. The accommodation consists of an inviting front porch leading into the main lounge, which still retains its character despite having an obsolete gas fire. The ground floor also hosts a bedroom at the front elevation plus a second reception room that could serve as either living or dining space; it also includes access to the first-floor dormer conversion via an internal staircase. The kitchen at the rear is functional but would benefit from reconfiguration and contemporary styling. On the first floor, you'll find two additional bedrooms along with practical eaves storage, ensuring ample room for families or those seeking guest accommodation. The exterior grounds include tiered landscaping at the rear and potential for enhancement amidst the scenic backdrop of nearby countryside walks—perfect for outdoor enthusiasts. Situated just 1.5 miles from Consett town centre's amenities while also being close to charming local shops and schools makes this property even more appealing. Given its investment potential combined with convenience to larger cities like Newcastle and Durham, early viewings are advisable to fully grasp what this bungalow can become.
