The grounds provide ample space for landscaping, outdoor entertaining, or further development, subject to the necessary consents.
Internally, the bungalow offers well-proportioned accommodation arranged on one level.
While the property is now in need of full modernisation, it provides a solid and versatile footprint that lends itself perfectly to refurbishment, reconfiguration, and possible extension.
Buyers will appreciate the scope to create a contemporary home tailored to their own tastes, or to enhance and enlarge the existing accommodation to maximise the size and setting of the plot.
The property is situated on Station Lane in the highly sought-after village of Thorner, a picturesque and well-regarded community renowned for its semi-rural charm, strong sense of village life and excellent accessibility.

Surrounded by rolling countryside, Thorner is ideally placed for outdoor pursuits, with an abundance of scenic walks, bridleways and cycle routes right on the doorstep, offering open views across the surrounding landscape.
Despite its tranquil setting, the village is exceptionally well connected.
Nearby road links provide straightforward access to the A58, A64 and A1(M), offering convenient commuting into Leeds and beyond.
