A Detached Bungalow Standing In Generously Sized Gardens With Wonderful Estuary And Coastline Views Offering Immense Potential, With Block Paved Driveway And Garage
Property Oracle says ..
This two-bedroom detached bungalow in Exmouth, Devon, presents a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a property with potential for improvement. Located in a quiet cul-de-sac, the property offers a peaceful residential setting within easy reach of Exmouth’s amenities and transportation links. The train station is within a reasonable distance, enabling easy access to other areas via the Great Western Railway. Nearby schools, while not all rated outstanding, offer various options for families.
The bungalow itself offers a decent amount of living space, distributed across two bedrooms, a kitchen, and a living area. The presence of a conservatory provides additional space and the potential for a versatile area. However, there’s a noticeable need for modernisation. The interior shows its age, with dated decor, fittings, and potentially outdated utilities. The garden, although of reasonable size, appears slightly overgrown, presenting an opportunity for landscaping.
The asking price appears within the range of similar properties in the area but it’s important for potential buyers to factor in the estimated costs of modernization to ensure that it represents fair value. While the coastal location is a significant advantage, it is important to consider the level of investment necessary to bring the property up to modern standards. Further investigation of local council tax rates, planning regulations, and potential development opportunities would enhance an informed purchase decision. A detailed structural survey is advisable before making an offer.
Therefore, we give this property 6 / 10. *Disclaimer: This is our option and does constitute a recommendation or financial advice. Do your own research. *
