Confidence: LOW

This spacious semi-detached bungalow is set in a well-regarded residential area, offering a generous layout and a substantial garden that is perfect for those looking to create their dream home. While the property requires modernisation, it presents a blank canvas for renovations, allowing new owners to personalise the space to their taste. The living areas, although dated, feature characterful elements like a bay window and a fireplace, while the kitchen has an interesting layout that could be transformed into a modern culinary space.

The outdoor space is one of the standout features, with a large garden that includes a patio for entertaining and a garden pod that could serve various purposes, from a home office to a hobby room. Given its size and potential, this property could be an excellent investment for those willing to undertake the necessary refurbishments. While the price cannot be evaluated against local £/sqf due to missing floor area, the asking price of £275,000 presents an opportunity to acquire a home with great potential in a desirable location.
