Confidence: MEDIUM

Tinkers Den is a spacious three-bedroom detached bungalow located in the desirable village of Bradford Peverell, presenting a solid opportunity for renovation. The home is set on a generous plot and offers bright, well-maintained living spaces, including a dual-aspect reception room and a delightful sun-room that opens out to the garden. The bespoke kitchen is a standout feature, showcasing quality craftsmanship, and there is scope to enhance the property further with the potential for a loft conversion, subject to necessary permissions.

With an asking price of £450,000, this property is competitively priced at £344/sqf, which is slightly below the local average. However, the renovation economics indicate that the all-in costs of £510,000 are tight against local benchmarks, suggesting a careful approach to budgeting will be essential. While the project requires medium-scale refurbishment, it offers the chance to create a spacious and modern family home in a sought-after area. The overall condition of the property is good, making it an attractive prospect for buyers looking to invest in a renovation project without the need for extensive immediate works.
