Entrance Hall; Family Bathroom with white wc, wash hand basin, bath with overhead shower; 2 Bedrooms; Sitting Room; Kitchen; Conservatory/Sun Room and covered Lobby to side.
The gross internal floor area of the accommodation is approximately 88m² (excluding garage).
The property has a modest frontage with an off-road parking space. These is a single attached garage to the side, with up-and-over door to front and pedestrian door to lobby.

EPC - F. Council Tax Band - D
There is evidence of structural cracking to the internal and external walls of the property, understood to be caused by soil shrinkage due to a nearby tree, with the property therefore requiring full structural repair. The required repairs mean that the bungalow is unlikely to be suitable for mortgage lending purposes in the meantime.
