About
This detached bungalow occupies a pleasant corner plot in a quiet position within the popular village of Milborne St Andrew, with well-tended gardens and partial rural views.
The property benefits from UPVC double glazing and gas-fired central heating, and was originally configured as a three-bedroom bungalow.
The vendors have reconfigured the accommodation to create a larger lounge/dining area, although the dining area could be reinstated as a third bedroom if required.
The ENTRANCE HALL provides access to the principal rooms and includes a useful deep fitted cloaks cupboard, with access to the roof space.
The SITTING ROOM/DINING ROOM has windows to the front and side, with the side window enjoying views towards the surrounding countryside.
An attractive multi-fuel burner is set within a brick fireplace with a raised marble hearth and wooden mantel, creating a focal point within the room.
The dining area provides a useful space for entertaining and could, if required, be reinstated as the property's third bedroom.
The KITCHEN is a light and bright room overlooking the rear garden and fitted with a range of wooden-effect wall and base units, providing ample cupboard and drawer storage.
There are generous worktops with tiled splashbacks, under-pelmet lighting and a one-and-a-half bowl stainless steel sink.

A useful linen cupboard provides additional storage, and a door leads outside.
