So it is well worth checking out this attractive three-bedroom, detached bungalow in Selston that has just made it on to the market with Eastwood estate agents Burchell Edwards, who are inviting offers in the region of £375,000.
Butchell Edwards go so far as to describe the property as “a downsizer’s dream” – and that’s hardly surprising when you consider it boasts an annexe and an outdoor pool in the garden.
It sits on Portland Road, which is close to shops, amenities, schools, bus routes and major road links, including junction 27 of the M1. But it is also set well back from the road, offering a fair degree of privacy.
Step inside to find an entrance hallway, lounge, dining room, kitchen, three bedrooms and wet room, all admirably presented..
The bungalow is the centrepiece of a substantial plot that makes you wonder if you might even be UP-sizing! At the front, there is a lawn and concrete driveway providing off-street parking space and leading to a garage with up-and-over door, light and power. And at the back, a generously-sized garden features another lawn, a paved patio area and a variety of plants, bushes and shrubs, as well as that aforementioned annexe and pool.

11. Smallest bedroom
The third bedroom at the £375,000 Selston bungalow is the smallest, and probably suitable for a young child. It faces the front of the property. Photo: Zoopla
12. Pool and annexe
An outdoor pool and, beyond that, a small annexe are the highlights of the generously-sized back garden, which is fully enclosed with fencing. It includes a lawn and a variety of plants, bushes and shrubs. Photo: Zoopla
