Description
This two-bedroom bungalow offers single-level accommodation with scope for modernisation and redesign. The entrance hall leads to a living room, kitchen, two bedrooms and a wet room.

Outside, the property has a garden, a garage and an adjoining workshop. These outbuildings provide storage or space for hobbies and practical use. The bungalow is marketed by Webbers Property Services in Bodmin and is described as requiring updating, offering purchasers the opportunity to adapt the accommodation and outdoor space to their own requirements.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This is a usable two-bedroom bungalow with a clear, manageable canvas: dated but functional interiors can be refreshed, while the overgrown garden and worn paving offer scope to create a more inviting outdoor space. The garage and adjoining workshop are useful features, and the weathered outbuilding is worth inspecting before deciding how to use it. The roof tiles look aged, though no definite failure is visible in the photos.
The price is not a value highlight: at £262/sq ft, the asking price is above the local average of £247/sq ft. With the £8,000–£18,000 renovation range, purchase plus refurbishment costs look tight against local benchmarks, so the project’s appeal rests more on personalisation and the useful outbuildings than on an obvious margin.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated, usable interiors, including the worn living-room flooring, to give the bungalow a more current feel.
- Clear and landscape the garden, improving the worn paved areas and making better use of the outdoor space.
- Make use of the garage and adjoining workshop for storage, hobbies or practical workspace.
