Description

This spacious four-bedroom semi-detached bungalow offers a generous living space, featuring a lounge, kitchen, and a 22-foot sunroom. The property includes enclosed lawned gardens, a garage, and parking for three to four vehicles. Although the double-glazed and gas central heated accommodation requires some modernisation, it presents an excellent opportunity for renovation. The layout comprises an entrance hall leading to a lounge with an electric fire, a kitchen equipped with essential appliances, and a sunroom with dining area and French doors opening to the rear garden. The ground floor also hosts two double bedrooms, one with fitted wardrobes, a single bedroom or study, and a three-piece shower room. Upstairs, a spacious attic bedroom with eaves storage and an en-suite shower room adds to the appeal. Recently re-roofed in 2025, the property has considerable potential for extension, subject to planning permission. It is sold with no onward chain and is situated in the desirable village of Scotby, which boasts local amenities including a primary school, village shop, pub, and excellent transport links to Carlisle city centre and the M6 motorway.

Grade DWeak opportunity

Confidence: LOW

This spacious four-bedroom semi-detached bungalow in Scotby presents a solid renovation opportunity for buyers willing to modernise. The property boasts generous living space, including a lounge, a 22' sunroom, and a good-sized garden, making it ideal for families or those seeking additional outdoor space. While the interiors are dated and require modernisation throughout, the potential for improvement is clear, and the recent roof replacement in 2025 adds a layer of reassurance regarding the property's structural integrity.

With a guide price of £270,000, the absence of specific floor area means we can’t directly compare this against local £/sqf averages yet. However, the price reflects the need for refurbishment, allowing for a renovation budget of £40,000 to £120,000, which could significantly enhance the property's value. Buyers should note that bidding can exceed the guide price, so while this listing currently seems accessible, the final sale price may vary. Overall, this property has great potential for someone looking to create their ideal home in a desirable location.
