Description
This detached two-bedroom bungalow is situated in a cul-de-sac in Holbeck, close to local amenities and transport links. The accommodation includes an entrance hall, lounge, kitchen, two double bedrooms and a wet-room-style shower room. A conservatory connects with the lounge, kitchen and rear garden, and the property is offered with vacant possession.
Outside, there are mature front and rear gardens, off-road parking for several cars and a detached garage. The listing describes the property as requiring full renovation. Central heating, some double glazing and mains services are stated. The layout and existing facilities provide a starting point for a refurbishment, with the extent of work to be confirmed by inspection.

Grade ELow opportunity
Confidence: MEDIUM
This detached bungalow has a useful project canvas: two double bedrooms, a conservatory, driveway parking, a detached garage and mature gardens, with a single-storey layout to make your own. The visible works are substantial, with worn floors and damaged or stained finishes across several areas, alongside an old-fashioned kitchen and a dated wet room; the garden edges could also be brought back into shape. The exterior looks intact in the available views, with no obvious major structural failure.
Worth weighing the all-in picture: the quoted refurb range (£60,000) on top of the asking price brings all-in exposure close to £245,000, about 34% ahead of typical local benchmarks for this size. That is why the overall grade stays low; we have not forecast value after improvement.
Key opportunities
- Rework the two-bedroom bungalow’s single-storey layout and finishes to suit a new owner.
- Make the conservatory, detached garage and multi-car driveway work together as useful everyday spaces.
- Restore the mature garden by tidying overgrown edges while retaining its established trees and shrubs.
Key risks
- Worn flooring and damaged or stained finishes across several areas, plus the kitchen and wet-room updates, point to a full-gut programme rather than a cosmetic refresh; the £45,000–£75,000 works range needs careful budgeting and scheduling.
- At the £185,000 asking price, adding the stated renovation range puts the purchase-plus-works cost well above the local average-value benchmark for this floor area; that comparison is not a post-renovation value forecast.
