Description

This chain-free, three-bedroom detached bungalow occupies a corner plot in Old Cookridge and is offered with vacant possession. The accommodation extends to just over 1,000 sq ft including the integral garage, with open countryside views from the kitchen and other parts of the property. The layout includes a central living room, three bedrooms, an inner hall with full-height storage and a shower room. One bedroom is currently used as a second reception room and opens onto the rear garden through sliding doors. The kitchen is dated and would benefit from replacement. The listing notes that its stud partition with the living room could potentially be altered to create a more open arrangement, subject to checks and any required consents. The shower room has been modernised. The bungalow also has a partially boarded loft and a wraparound garden. Reported improvements include a replacement roof in 2021, a Worcester gas combination boiler installed approximately six years ago with a full service history, selected replacement double-glazed windows and an upgrade to the kitchen electrics in 2019. The property has three steps to the front entrance; a previously installed access lift is decommissioned and may require reconnection. Local shops and bus services are available in Cookridge and Holt Park, with Horsforth railway station stated to be approximately 0.9 miles away. The property presents scope for modernisation, particularly in the kitchen, while retaining its existing bungalow layout.

WHOTS analysis

Our WHOTS verdict

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.

50out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: MEDIUM

This chain-free detached bungalow has a clean, usable base and a clear light-refresh opportunity: update the dated kitchen and older finishes, then consider whether opening the stud wall could make a brighter kitchen-living space, subject to checks and consents. The modern-looking shower room, maintained corner-plot garden, integral garage and reported 2021 roof replacement add to the appeal; the kitchen’s countryside outlook is a particular feature.

At £340,000, the asking price is around 4.7% above the local £/sqf average, so price is not a standout. With works included, the overall economics also look tight against local benchmarks, making careful buying and control of the improvement scope important for a project buyer.

Key opportunities

  • Replace the dated kitchen and refresh older finishes and flooring to give the clean, usable interior a more contemporary feel.
  • Explore opening the stud wall between kitchen and living room, subject to checks and consents, to create a more connected space that makes the most of the countryside outlook.
  • Make the most of the corner plot, maintained garden, integral garage and modern-looking shower room as strong existing features.
