Description

Set at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac in Ashingdon, this two-bedroom bungalow has a lounge/diner, a large kitchen/breakfast room with fitted appliances, and a modern fitted shower room. The freehold property is offered with no onward chain. The accommodation includes two bedrooms, with the principal room measuring 16ft 8in by 10ft 2in, and a lounge/diner measuring 21ft 8in by 10ft 2in. Outside, the established rear garden is approximately 100ft long, with a frontage around 50ft wide. A detached garage, workshop and separate garden outbuilding provide storage and hobby space, with side access linking the front and rear. The listing notes potential for extensions, subject to the necessary planning permissions; feasibility would need to be checked. Local amenities are described as nearby.

Grade CPotential opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £450,000, the asking price is about 6.9% below the local average per square foot, giving this maintained bungalow a reasonable starting point. The work looks light and mainly cosmetic: the kitchen is usable but dated, while the lounge and bedroom finishes offer scope for a fresh, more cohesive look. The shower room already appears updated, so the project can focus on refreshing rather than starting from scratch.

The standout canvas is outside: an established garden of around 100ft, a broad frontage, detached garage, workshop and garden outbuilding bring useful space and character. There is also stated extension potential, subject to planning permission, but no consent or feasibility evidence is provided. The moderate economics leave a relatively slim margin against the implied local average value, so the price advantage is helpful rather than a guarantee of strong returns.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen finishes and lounge and bedroom décor to create a more contemporary feel without an evidenced full refurbishment.
  • Make the most of the established 100ft garden, 50ft-wide frontage and the garage, workshop and garden outbuilding for outdoor living, storage or hobbies.
  • Explore the stated extension potential, subject to planning permission and feasibility.
