Description

This one-bedroom end-of-terrace bungalow is offered with no onward chain and requires comprehensive renovation and updating. The accommodation comprises an entrance hall, a kitchen with basic fitted units and space for a cooker, a living room with a door to the rear garden, one bedroom with an airing cupboard, and a bathroom with a bath, wash basin and WC. The property is served by mains electricity and water and is freehold, with council tax band A. Outside, the bungalow occupies a large corner plot with a lawned frontage, hedging and a path to the entrance. A side gate leads to the rear garden, which includes a patio, shrubs and a block-built shed. A short walk away is a block of garages, with a small plot registered to the property; its use as a parking space or potential garage site is not confirmed. The property is on the outskirts of Bideford, within level walking distance of amenities and with regular bus services to the quayside and shopping area. Moreton Park and nearby supermarkets are close by, while Westward Ho! and Northam are also within reach. The accommodation and plot provide scope for a full refurbishment, subject to inspection and verification of the garage-area arrangements.

44out of 100
Grade ELow opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

At £125,000, this freehold end-terrace bungalow is priced below the local £/sqf average, giving buyers a comparatively low entry point for a one-bedroom home in a convenient Bideford location. The corner plot, front and rear outdoor space, no onward chain and nearby amenities add to its appeal as a project.

There is plenty to reshape: the photographed interiors have dated finishes and worn coverings, while the overgrown garden offers scope to clear and make usable. The asking price is attractive, but a substantial programme across the interior means purchase plus works would still be stretched against local benchmarks for a home of this size; that comparison is with current local averages, not a forecast of renovated value. The exterior appears intact in the available views, with no obvious major roof failure.

Key opportunities

  • Rework the dated interior finishes across the living room, bedroom, kitchen and bathroom to create a more cohesive home.
  • Clear the overgrown rear garden and improve the front outdoor space, making better use of the corner plot and patio.
  • Explore how the side access, garden shed and nearby registered plot could support practical outdoor use or parking.

Key risks

  • The worn finishes across the photographed rooms and the garden clearance make this a substantial multi-area programme, not a cosmetic refresh; allow for a longer, more involved sequence of work.
  • Even with the asking price below the local £/sqf average, the purchase and substantial works together look stretched against local benchmarks for this floor area.
  • All-in costs look stretched with the asking price plus a meaningful modernisation spend, about 20% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size — current-condition benchmarks only, not after-works GDV.
