House For Sale £550,000
A fabulous opportunity to purchase a two double bedroom detached bungalow, in need of complete refurbishment, offered for sale with no onward chain and boasting grounds of about one and half acres. The property enjoys a magical location off the beaten track and is situated in a tranquil position, off a quiet, private lane with no immediate neighbours. The bungalow is over 70 years old, built in concrete block
on standard construction, as such, there maybe limited lending sources. It is brought to the market with choice to refurbish as is or with re-configuration options or to demolish and create a home to one's own style and needs, subject to the necessary planning permissions. In addition, there is plenty of space for lifestyle changes, as a taster for a small holding, a step towards self sufficiency or just for those seeking an outdoor country life with room for children and pets to let off steam within the safe confines of the grounds. It is essential that the property be viewed to truly appreciate the special and unique location and to really visualise the bungalow's potential. An early viewing is strongly urged to avoid missing out on the chance to be the next owner of this lovely parcel of Dorset.
