IMPRESSIVE DETACHED DORMER BUNGALOW ON AN EXTENSIVE CORNER PLOT – Offering a fantastic combination of versatile living space, generous gardens and excellent outside accommodation, this two-bedroom detached dormer bungalow provides a wonderful opportunity for those seeking a distinctive home in a popular part of Mickleover.
The property has been refurbished and fully rewired in 2021, creating a well-maintained home with a thoughtfully designed layout.
The breakfast kitchen is particularly well equipped, while the spacious lounge diner provides a comfortable setting for both everyday living and entertaining, with sliding doors opening directly onto the patio.
There are two generously sized bedrooms, including a superb first-floor principal bedroom with substantial built-in eaves storage, alongside a versatile snug, downstairs shower room and family bathroom.
Outside, the extensive corner plot wraps around three sides of the property, while the substantial double garage has been converted into a workshop and summer house/sun room, offering exceptional flexibility.
The Detail - Entering through the tiled porch, the property immediately provides a practical and welcoming introduction, with surrounding windows allowing plenty of natural light into the space.
The hallway is carpeted and provides access to the principal ground-floor rooms.
The breakfast kitchen has been thoughtfully designed with laminate flooring, a useful breakfast bar and a comprehensive range of integrated appliances, including a fridge freezer, double oven, dishwasher and induction hob.
There is also space for a freestanding washing machine. Dual-aspect windows overlook the gardens, while a door provides direct access outside.
The lounge diner is a generous and versatile reception space, with a side-facing window, feature fireplace with gas fire and ample room for a dining table.
Sliding doors open onto the patio, creating a natural connection with the gardens. The large ground-floor bedroom features a bay window, laminate flooring and built-in sliding wardrobes.
Also downstairs is a versatile snug, positioned around the staircase and equally suited to use as a study, reading room or additional sitting space.
A well-appointed shower room includes a mains-fed shower, vanity wash basin and WC.
Upstairs, the spacious principal bedroom benefits from two large built-in wardrobes within the eaves, while the landing features an attractive stained-glass window.
The bathroom provides a bath with handheld shower, wash basin, WC and useful cupboard housing the boiler.
Outside, the gardens wrap around three sides, with a low-maintenance rear garden complemented by lawns and established borders elsewhere.
