John Buck Estates are delighted to welcome to the market this two-bedroom detached bungalow, pleasantly situated within the popular Briar Close in Houghton le Spring.

Offering generous accommodation, a practical single-storey layout and excellent potential for improvement, this property presents a fantastic opportunity for buyers looking to create a home to their own taste and specification.

Whilst the bungalow would benefit from a programme of modernisation and cosmetic updating throughout, it offers plenty of potential and would be particularly appealing to those looking to put their own stamp on a property in an established residential location.

To the rear, the property benefits from a sunroom, providing an additional reception area with pleasant views over the garden and direct access to the outside space.

Both bedrooms are well proportioned, with the principal bedroom offering particularly generous dimensions and fitted wardrobes. The second bedroom also provides flexible accommodation, ideal for guests, a home office or additional bedroom space.

The bathroom is fitted with a suite including a shower enclosure, wash hand basin and WC, and offers further scope for updating.

Externally, the bungalow benefits from an enclosed rear garden, featuring lawned areas, established planting and paved pathways. The garden offers excellent potential for landscaping and creating an attractive outdoor seating area.
