Description

This individually designed two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers 1,243 sq ft of single-level accommodation, with shops, amenities and transport links nearby. The layout includes an entrance hall, front lounge, kitchen-diner, two double bedrooms and a modern shower room. The property is offered with no onward chain. The kitchen-diner has fitted units and space for appliances, while the lounge and bedrooms provide generous living and sleeping space. Outside, there is a large driveway, an attached garage and a substantial rear garden with a westerly aspect. The listing notes that the roof was replaced around five years ago and a new boiler was installed in March 2025, with a five-year warranty. The loft provides additional space, and the owners have previously had planning permission for a conversion; any current permissions or feasibility would need to be checked. The plot is also described as offering space to extend, subject to the necessary checks and approvals.

54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This is a spacious, well-kept bungalow with a lot going for it as a light project: the lounge and bedrooms are presentable, the shower room looks modern, and the large west-facing garden, driveway and attached garage add useful appeal. The dated kitchen and patchy lawn offer scope for a cosmetic refresh, while the substantial loft space is an interesting possibility, though any conversion would need its current feasibility and permissions checked.

At £279,995, the asking price is slightly above the local £/sqf average rather than a clear value entry point. The score is therefore held back by the numbers: purchase plus works looks tight against local benchmarks, so buyers will need to be disciplined on price and project spend.

Key opportunities

  • Refresh the dated kitchen finishes while retaining the usable-looking cabinetry and surfaces.
  • Improve the dry, patchy lawn and planting to make more of the large, private west-facing garden.
  • Explore the substantial loft space as a longer-term way to increase flexibility, subject to checking feasibility and permissions.
