Description

The property is described as being in dilapidated condition and presents a substantial refurbishment or redevelopment project.

Grade CPotential opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
At £150,000, this detached bungalow is priced at £159 per sq ft, well below the local average of £332 per sq ft—a compelling entry point for a buyer seeking a substantial project. The interiors are severely deteriorated, with damaged ceilings, marked walls, worn flooring and debris across several photographed rooms; the kitchen and bathroom also need a full rethink. The generous plot, far-reaching coastal views, driveway and rear access give the project a distinctive setting, while the overgrown grounds and dilapidated garage add to the work involved. The main roof cannot be reliably assessed from the photographs.
This is a heavy, start-again renovation rather than a cosmetic refresh, but it offers scope to reshape the bungalow into a home tailored to its setting. The listing also mentions exploring two dwellings, subject to planning and other consents; feasibility is not established.
Key opportunities
- Rework the bungalow’s interior as a complete project, creating a home suited to the coastal setting rather than making piecemeal updates.
- Make the most of the generous plot, far-reaching coastal views, driveway and rear access, and reclaim the overgrown grounds.
- The listing raises the possibility of exploring two dwellings, subject to planning and other consents; this has not been established as feasible.
Key risks
- Severely deteriorated interiors, damaged ceilings and debris, plus neglected outbuildings and grounds, point to a full interior rebuild and substantial site-clearance programme—not a cosmetic refresh.
- The main roof cannot be reliably assessed from the photographs, and the garage is described as dilapidated.
