Description

Tucked away in a tranquil setting, this two-bedroom detached bungalow presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. As you approach the property, you are welcomed by double wrought iron gates that open onto a private driveway leading to the garage. The bungalow itself features a non-standard prefab construction with a single brick facade, indicating potential for modernization and customization. Internally, the layout comprises a reception hall that provides access to various living spaces, including a lounge fitted with windows on both front and side elevations, allowing for an abundance of natural light. The compact kitchen contains wall and base storage units as well as access to a uPVC double glazed conservatory—ideal for further enhancing the living area or reimagining it into an inviting space for entertaining. The two double bedrooms offer ample room for personalization; both have central heating radiators and one includes built-in wardrobe space. The property also features essential amenities such as a shower room and separate WC, which could benefit from updating to suit modern standards. Outside, the good-sized gardens feature slabbed patio areas and mature greenery, creating an appealing outdoor space. With some landscaping work or reconfiguration, there is significant scope to enhance this area further. The detached garage adds valuable storage space or could be transformed into an additional utility area. Located conveniently near Market Drayton town center, residents can enjoy local amenities including shops, restaurants, schools, and recreational facilities. The nearby mainline railway stations at Stafford, Stoke-on-Trent, and Crewe provide excellent transport links for commuters while Manchester Airport and Birmingham Airport are within reasonable driving distance.
