Property description
Offered to the market with no upper chain, this two-bedroom semi-detached bungalow occupies a generous plot along North Road in Catchgate and represents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a property with scope to modernise and add value.
The accommodation is arranged over one level and comprises an entrance lobby leading into a central hallway, a well-proportioned lounge, a kitchen/diner offering ample space for everyday dining, two good-sized bedrooms, and a bathroom. While the property is now dated and would benefit from refurbishment, it offers spacious rooms and a practical layout that lends itself well to updating to suit individual tastes.
Externally, the bungalow enjoys surrounding gardens, generous off-road parking, and a detached garage, providing excellent storage and parking options. The plot size and outdoor space further enhance the appeal for buyers looking for manageable single-level living with outdoor potential.
The property is freehold, falls within Council Tax Band B, EPC rating D (51) and the sale is subject to probate being granted. An ideal purchase for downsizers, developers, or buyers looking for a renovation project in a convenient and established location.
