Situated in the most sought after of locations on the Australian estate is this two double bedroom detached bungalow being offered for sale with no chain involved and requiring modernisation and refurbishment.

The bungalow, originally believed to be built in the 1930's, benefits from a lovely 12'x 11'3 sun room with double doors opening out onto the easterly facing garden.

The garden itself is also another major selling feature being 84' x 35' and unoverlooked from the rear.

The property has a shower room and also a large separate cloakroom which offers potential for conversion to a study / office or a small young child's bedroom.

In the garden is a workshop with power and light plus a separate shed and well stocked shrub borders plus a south facing patio area which is a real suntrap.

At the front there is a double width driveway partly block paved and partly shingle.

Please note that in 2010 closed cell spray foam was installed between the rafters in the roof of the bungalow. Quotes have been obtained for the removal of the spray foam insulation of between �20,000-�25,000. The sellers of the bungalow have suggested that a number of people might be viewing this bungalow with an intention of a loft conversion and incorporate dormer windows as has just been undertaken on another similar bungalow further up Glenavon Road.

Summary Continued - If this is the case as part of those works the roof would be removed and altered in any case and this is a requirement of the spray foam removal that access to the spray foam would necessitate the removal of the roof tiles and incorporated of underfelt underneath the tiles that are being put back.

The sellers are therefore prepared to consider a reduction in the asking price of the property to reflect these quotes should an incoming purchaser look to be doing this work themselves.
