I’ll keep this grounded.

This is a bungalow with the right fundamentals in the right location — and more importantly, one that gives you room to think, not just room to live.

On Coalway Road, that matters. Because this is a road where people improve, extend and hold. This property simply sits at the point before that work has been done.

 
The Approach
A mature frontage, established planting, and a plot that already feels settled. There’s also a clear opportunity for driveway creation to the front, subject to the usual permissions — something buyers will immediately recognise.

Through the porch, you step into a central hallway that runs efficiently through the home.

 
Living Space
Reception Room 1 – 12.8 m² (approx. 138 sq ft)
Approx. 4.2m x 3.0m (13'9" x 9'10")

Positioned to the front, this is your main living room. A feature fireplace anchors the space, and the proportions allow for a proper layout without compromise. It’s a room that will take modernisation well without needing structural change.

Reception Room 2 – 10.3 m² (approx. 111 sq ft)
Approx. 3.6m x 2.9m (11'10" x 9'6")

Also with a fireplace, this is where flexibility comes in. Dining room, second sitting room, or opened up into a more contemporary layout — it’s a decision rather than a limitation.

 
Kitchen & Rear Space
Kitchen – 10.4 m² (approx. 112 sq ft)
Approx. 3.5m x 3.0m (11'6" x 9'10")

A workable footprint that invites improvement. Whether you modernise as-is or reconfigure alongside the rear, the space supports it.

Conservatory – 11.9 m² (approx. 128 sq ft)
Approx. 3.8m x 3.1m (12'6" x 10'2")

This is a large, functional room, not just an add-on. It already extends the house in a meaningful way and becomes a key part of any future redesign — particularly if you’re thinking open-plan kitchen/dining.

Bathroom – 5.5 m² (approx. 59 sq ft)
Approx. 2.6m x 2.1m (8'6" x 6'11")

Well positioned within the layout and ready for updating - With W.C, Basin, Bath and separate shower cubicle.

 
Bedrooms 
Bedroom One (Middle Room) – 8.4 m² (approx. 90 sq ft)
Approx. 3.2m x 2.6m (10'6" x 8'6")

Located centrally within the bungalow. This room works well as the principal bedroom due to its position and balance within the layout. Removal of built in wardrobes/storage opens up further space

Bedroom Two (Rear / Conservatory Aspect) – 8.4 m² (approx. 90 sq ft)
Approx. 3.2m x 2.6m (10'6" x 8'6")

Positioned to the rear, with a window into the conservatory. It’s an interesting feature and one that could be rethought as part of a wider refurbishment — either enhancing light flow or reconfiguring the relationship between spaces.

 
Loft Space
Loft Storage – 21.3 m² (approx. 229 sq ft)

2m height (ideal for conversion)

This is where things shift from “nice bungalow” to “long-term project with upside”.

It’s a genuinely usable volume, and subject to permissions, this is the space that could transform the property entirely. On this road, that’s not speculative — it’s consistent with how neighbouring homes evolve.

 
Outside
The rear garden is established and already usable. Lawn, mature planting, and a layout that doesn’t need immediate work.

At the rear:

Detached Garage Outbuilding – 10.4 m² (approx. 112 sq ft)
Approx. 3.5m x 3.0m (11'6" x 9'10")

A substantial standalone garage, fitted with an automatic up-and-over door (fob operated), with hardstanding parking directly in front.

Access is via the shared driveway to the right-hand side, with gated side access to the left completing a very practical external setup.

 
The Position
Penn / Merry Hill side of WV3 — established, consistent, and always in demand.

Bantock Park & Smestow Valley nearby
Easy access to Wolverhampton City Centre & rail
Schools, amenities and healthcare all within reach
It’s the kind of area where improvements are rewarded.

 
The Opportunity
This isn’t a finished product.

It’s a bungalow with the right layout, the right plot, and the right positioning to justify doing something meaningful with it.

You’re buying into:

• Strong room proportions
• Two reception rooms with fireplaces
• A large conservatory already adding footprint
• Detached garage with proper access and parking
• Loft space with real potential
• A plot that supports further enhancement
• That combination is where long-term value comes from.
