About
A rare opportunity to acquire a deceptively spacious detached bungalow, occupying an enviable and generously proportioned plot, and offered to the market with extensive gardens, ample driveway parking, and a detached double garage.
This impressive home combines flexible accommodation with well-balanced living spaces, making it ideally suited to a wide range of purchasers.
The internal accommodation begins with a welcoming entrance hallway. At the heart of the home is an exceptionally spacious dual-aspect lounge, featuring picture windows to two elevations.
One elevation incorporates patio doors which open directly onto a raised sun terrace, creating a seamless connection between the indoor living space and the outdoor areas, ideal for both everyday enjoyment and entertaining.
Complementing the lounge is a separate dining room, which also benefits from patio doors opening onto the rear garden.
This room provides an excellent setting for formal dining and social gatherings and features a striking spiral staircase leading to the first-floor accommodation, adding architectural interest and further enhancing the sense of space and flexibility within the home.
The master bedroom suite is particularly impressive, offering generous proportions and an en-suite bathroom as well as a range of fitted wardrobes.
In addition, this suite enjoys access to a charming additional seating area, centred around a focal point fireplace, creating a tranquil retreat within the home.
There are three further well-proportioned bedrooms located on the ground floor, all offering versatility for family living, guest accommodation, or home working.
Two of the bedrooms also have patio doors which provides access to the raised sun terraces. These are served by a family bathroom, fitted with a four-piece suite.
To the first floor, there is an additional bedroom which benefits from patio doors opening onto a balcony seating area.
This elevated outdoor space provides an ideal vantage point from which to enjoy the surrounding outlook and adds further appeal to the already flexible accommodation on offer.
Externally, the property continues to impress. A generous off-street driveway provides ample parking and leads to a detached double garage, offering excellent storage and secure parking options.
The extensive lawned garden enjoys an open aspect outlook.
Raised sun terraces to the rear of the property offer multiple areas for outdoor seating, perfectly suited to al fresco dining, entertaining guests, or simply relaxing while taking in the attractive surroundings.
Ideally positioned, the property offers convenient access to a range of local amenities and facilities, as well as nearby parks and green spaces.
Transport links and services provide commuter access to Newcastle City Centre and the surrounding areas, ensuring this superb home combines both flexible living space and accessibility in equal measure.
