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
Located in the highly sought-after area of Simmondley Village, this truly unique 2 bedroom detached bungalow offers over 1,700sqft of accommodation with a double garage underneath and occupies an extensive corner plot.
Requiring a degree of modernisation and offering excellent scope for reconfiguration, the property presents a fantastic opportunity to create a bespoke home tailored to individual requirements.
Ryder & Dutton are delighted to bring to the market this substantial 2 bedroom detached bungalow, occupying a highly desirable position within the ever-popular Simmondley Village area.
Enjoying stunning far-reaching views and situated within easy reach of open countryside, this unique property offers an excellent opportunity for those looking for a home they can modernise and tailor to their own requirements.
Originally built in 1961, the property has never previously been offered for sale on the open market, making this a particularly rare opportunity.
Whilst the bungalow is now in need of modernisation, it offers well-proportioned accommodation and considerable potential to improve and reconfigure the existing layout.
In particular, the entrance hallway and dining area could be remodelled to create a potential third bedroom or a larger, more practical living space, (subject to any necessary consents).
The accommodation currently comprises a generous entrance hallway, spacious family lounge featuring two perfectly positioned windows that take full advantage of the stunning views over the surrounding hills, a well-equipped kitchen with rear porch providing access to the garden, two excellent-sized double bedrooms, family bathroom and separate WC.
The property also benefits from a large double garage, complete with two electric up-and-over doors.
Externally, the property continues to impress, with an extensive driveway providing off-road parking for multiple vehicles.
To the front is a well-maintained garden enclosed by a mature and neatly kept hedge, whilst the split-level side garden enjoys picturesque views across the surrounding landscape.
To the rear is a generous and private garden, providing excellent outdoor space and further potential for landscaping.
Situated in this highly desirable location, the property is within easy reach of Simmondley Village centre and the popular local country pub, whilst being positioned on the fringe of the Peak District National Park, with a wealth of excellent countryside walks available virtually on the doorstep.
For commuters, there are good road links close at hand, whilst Glossop town centre offers a comprehensive range of leisure, retail and everyday amenities.
Glossop railway station also provides a regular rail service to Manchester Piccadilly.
Given its excellent position, generous plot, substantial accommodation and scope for modernisation and reconfiguration, an internal inspection is highly recommended to fully appreciate the potential this unique detached bungalow has to offer.
