We've tightened what earns a Pursue. A home now needs a published valuation, a strategy that still makes money after real running costs and lender stress tests, and no listing problems that would stop a mortgage. You'll see fewer Pursues, and each one has been checked harder.

About
Two Bedroom Detached Bungalow | Two Reception Rooms | Desirable Village Location | No Upward Chain I am delighted to present to the market this well-proportioned two bedroom detached bungalow, pleasantly positioned within the highly sought-after village of Barrow upon Soar and offered for sale with no upward chain, making it an ideal opportunity for a smooth and straightforward purchase.
Occupying a generous and attractive plot, the property provides thoughtfully arranged, single-level accommodation extending to approximately 65.1 sq. m (701 sq.
ft.), with a layout that balances comfortable living space and practical design.
At the heart of the home is a spacious lounge (13'2" x 11'9"), offering an inviting setting for relaxation and everyday living.
From here, double doors lead through to a separate dining/garden room (10'3" x 9'7"), a versatile second reception space enjoying views over the garden and ideal for entertaining or family meals.
The kitchen (11'0" x 10'3") is well-sized and conveniently positioned off the hall, with scope for modernisation to suit individual taste.
The bungalow benefits from two bedrooms, including a generous main bedroom (11'8" x 9'11") complete with its own en-suite WC, and a comfortable second bedroom (11'7" x 8'7") that could equally serve as a guest room, study, or hobby space.
A family bathroom is accessed from the central hallway. Externally, the property continues to impress.
To the front, there is off-road parking, while to the rear lies a low-maintenance garden offering privacy and outdoor enjoyment with minimal upkeep—ideal for downsizers or those seeking easy-care outside space.
The location is a particular highlight: set within a desirable village setting yet conveniently close to a range of local amenities, shops, and transport links, the bungalow combines peaceful surroundings with everyday convenience.
This appealing bungalow offers excellent potential for personalisation and is perfectly suited to downsizers, retirees, or buyers seeking single-storey living in a well-regarded village community.
