About this home
Offering comfortable and practical single-level living, this home is in good overall condition while giving the next owner plenty of scope to update the décor, kitchen and bathroom over time. The layout is simple and easy to manage, making it particularly well suited to downsizers, couples or anyone planning ahead for life without stairs. The living room at the front of the house is a bright and comfortable space, with a wide bay window bringing in plenty of natural light. There is good room for sofas and other furniture, while the fireplace creates a natural focal point. To the rear is a particularly useful kitchen/dining room. A slight extension has created extra space for a dining table, making this a much more practical room for everyday meals. There is a good amount of fitted storage and worktop space, with windows overlooking the rear garden and a door providing direct access outside. The kitchen would benefit from some modernisation, but its size and layout provide a strong starting point for a future update. Both bedrooms are good sizes. The front main bedroom has another attractive bay window, creating a bright room with plenty of space for a double bed and furniture. The second bedroom is also well proportioned and could be used for guests, hobbies or as a home office. The bathroom includes a bath, WC and wash basin and is again perfectly usable while offering scope for a future refresh. This gives buyers the chance to make improvements gradually rather than needing to complete major work before moving in. Outside, the generous rear garden is largely paved, helping to keep maintenance manageable while still providing plenty of room to sit outside and enjoy warmer days. Established flowers, shrubs and planting areas bring colour and interest, with space for pots, outdoor furniture and further planting if desired. For a downsizer, the garden provides a pleasing balance between useful outdoor space and day-to-day upkeep. A separate garage is another valuable feature, offering secure parking or useful storage for bikes, tools and garden equipment. Together with the garden and practical internal layout, it helps make this bungalow a comfortable home with plenty of potential for a buyer wanting to put their own stamp on it. The property also has a driveway to the front. The Heworth setting adds to the appeal, placing the home within an established residential part of York with everyday amenities and convenient links towards the city centre. Local shops and services can be found around the wider area, while York itself offers a much broader choice of shopping, cafés, restaurants, leisure facilities and attractions. A particularly useful feature is the bus stop opposite the property, with regular services providing an easy alternative to driving. This could be especially helpful for downsizers who want to remain independent and well connected, whether travelling into York for shopping, meeting friends or simply enjoying everything the city has to offer. Heworth and the surrounding area also provide access to local schools, making the location useful for buyers with family nearby or those who visit regularly. York's wider road and rail connections make travel further afield straightforward too.
