This two/three bedroom semi-detached dormer bungalow is a property brimming with potential. Under the same ownership for many years, this good-sized and flexible accommodation is in need of some modernisation, yet could be an exciting opportunity as either an investment or to create a home tailored to individual specifications/ requirements.
As executed in similar neighbouring properties, potential exists for extending the living spaces, at both ground and first floor levels, subject to the necessary consents and approvals. Our client has architects plans for a proposed dormer bedroom extension to the rear.
The property is located on a quiet, leafy road in a popular residential location. It is within easy reach of a host of independent shops, supermarkets, schools and other amenities within the Breightmet district, whilst Bolton and Bury town centres are easily accessible in just a few minutes by car or public transport. Recreational and green rural spaces are nearby, including Seven Acres Country Park, New House Farm Playing Fields and Leverhulme Park.
The accommodation itself is currently in excess of 1,030 square feet. Entrance is via a uPVC porch into a reception hallway facing a staircase to the first floor. Proceeding left into the 14' living room, the large bay window to the front elevation affords an abundance of natural light. The room has a characterful tiled fireplace with an inset coal-effect electric fire.
An inner hallway leads to a 15' ground floor bedroom, presently utilised as a dining/sitting room with a window overlooking the rear garden. Dependent on one’s development plans, this space could be easily incorporated into the adjacent kitchen to create an open plan kitchen/ dining room.
The kitchen is fitted with a range of wall and base units and leads to a useful uPVC double glazed utility room providing additional space for appliances and storage.
The ground floor is completed by a modern white shower room. This was recently updated with a new three piece suite, comprising of a curved corner shower cubicle, vanity wash hand basin and WC.
The first floor is currently arranged as a spacious 18' bedroom with two sizeable storage spaces (one of which houses the modern boiler) and plumbing by way of a washstand. This however, affords plenty of options for reconfiguration. Notwithstanding the option of adding a rear-facing dormer, this generous room could also be easily divided at minimal expense (given the bright dual aspect) to create a third bedroom or an en-suite bath/shower room.
The property enjoys a good-sized plot with gardens consisting of lawns and shrubs to the front and rear. Backing onto a football field it offers an excellent degree of privacy. The Westerly aspect ensures one can enjoy the sunshine late into the evening. Off-road parking facilities are provided on the block-paved driveway, which also gives access to the attached single garage.
Offered with the benefit of no onward chain, we would anticipate strong levels of interest in this exciting opportunity and would highly recommend an early viewing appointment.
