Right To Buy (Bungalow)

Hi,
I am currently living with my mother who is very ill (disabled) and has been for 10 years. I am at a age where living at my mum's small bungalow in my room is becoming stressful.
It is an end terrace bungalow 2 small bedrooms, lounge and kitchen.
I am aware of "Right To Buy" and the discount that comes with it. The property has scope to extend, add bigger rooms even extra rooms to give much better living condition for me and my mum but I can remain close if needed.
My question is are bungalows excluded from this scheme full stop?
Thanks

Salient points:
If you're stressed find your own place...
You have money for extensions but want a massive discount....

Well I'm glad your out because it's an absolutely pointless answer.0

Are you a tenant as well as your mother?0 -

If you were able to exercise the right to buy, would you have the funds to extend the bungalow in the way you want?0

Bungalows aren't excluded per se - but if there has been adaptations made or they are part of a sheltered housing scheme they are.0
