Description
This chain-free, two-bedroom bungalow is arranged on one level and occupies a generous corner plot. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, a spacious lounge with a feature fireplace and gas fire, and a fitted kitchen with storage and worktop space. A separate pantry and utility room provide additional storage and laundry space. There are two well-proportioned bedrooms, including a particularly large main bedroom, and a shower room with a walk-in shower, basin and toilet.
Outside, gravelled areas sit to the front and rear, while a substantial lawned side garden is enclosed by timber fencing. A timber shed provides storage, and on-street parking is available. The listing notes scope to investigate an extension, subject to planning permission and any other required consents. Gas central heating and uPVC double glazing are stated, with the windows and door replaced in 2021.
Dumfries town centre is stated to be less than a mile away, with local shops and food outlets nearby and a bus stop in the immediate vicinity. The property is marketed by Yopa and the listing refers to a Home Report available through the agent's stated channels.
WHOTS analysis

An internal assessment of the opportunity to acquire, improve and create value.
54out of 100
Grade DWeak opportunity
Confidence: LOW
This is a clean, usable bungalow with a generous corner plot and a sizeable maintained lawn, giving buyers a straightforward canvas for selective updating rather than a major overhaul. The lounge and bedrooms have dated decorative finishes, while the kitchen and shower room appear functional; the £5,000–£12,000 renovation range suggests scope to refresh the presentation. The listing also says extension potential may be explored, subject to the necessary permissions and consents.
The 54/100 D grade is a weaker overall opportunity, but it is not a verdict that the asking price is dear: floor area is missing, so value against local £/sqf cannot yet be judged. The limited floor-area data also leaves the purchase-plus-renovation economics difficult to assess. The corner plot, single-level layout and proximity to Dumfries amenities are the clearest attractions.
Key opportunities
- Refresh the dated decorative finishes in the lounge and bedrooms for a more current feel.
- Make the most of the generous corner plot and maintained lawn; investigate the stated extension scope subject to permissions and consents.
- The fitted kitchen and shower room appear usable, allowing selective cosmetic updating rather than a full replacement project.
