About
Occupying an enviable position on Melbourne Avenue, one of Dronfield's most prestigious and highly sought-after residential roads, this exceptional three-bedroom, two-bathroom detached bungalow offers a rare opportunity to acquire a beautifully presented and substantially extended home within a location that residents genuinely aspire to live in.
Enjoying an attractive setting with no property directly opposite and backing onto open fields and farmland, the property combines generous and versatile accommodation with a large south-westerly facing garden, delightful rural views and an impressive entertaining patio.
Beautifully presented throughout and offered to the market with no onward chain, the bungalow has been thoughtfully extended to provide spacious accommodation ideally suited to a variety of purchasers, particularly those seeking the convenience of single-storey living without compromising on space.
The excellent plot is a particular feature, with an attractive lawned frontage, ample off-road parking and a garage, whilst the substantial rear garden enjoys a superb south-westerly aspect and an open outlook across the neighbouring countryside.
The accommodation briefly comprises a spacious and welcoming entrance hall with glazed oak doors leading into a beautiful living room.
A large bow window provides pleasant views across the attractive front garden and towards the open aspect opposite, whilst an additional side-facing window allows an abundance of natural light into the room.
An inner hallway provides access to the bedroom accommodation, including an impressive principal bedroom suite featuring an extensive range of fitted furniture and a rear-facing window enjoying lovely views across the garden.
The adjoining en-suite shower room is attractively appointed with a modern suite incorporating a generous walk-in shower enclosure and extractor.
There is a further large double bedroom with fitted wardrobes, together with a particularly well-proportioned third bedroom which offers excellent flexibility and is of sufficient size to accommodate a double bed if required.
Completing the bedroom accommodation is a sumptuous family bathroom, beautifully appointed with a modern and contemporary suite and finished to an excellent standard throughout.
Generously proportioned, the room features an oversized bath together with a large walk-in shower enclosure, contemporary sanitaryware and extensive tiling, creating a stylish and luxurious space with a real sense of quality.
A spacious utility room provides an excellent addition to the accommodation, fitted with a range of oak units, sink and drainer, integrated freezer and ample space for further appliances.
A side-facing window and part-glazed external door provide natural light and convenient access.
Undoubtedly one of the highlights of the home is the impressive open-plan dining kitchen, creating a superb social and entertaining space overlooking the rear garden.
Fitted with an extensive range of oak units complemented by granite work surfaces and a breakfast bar, the kitchen incorporates a range of integrated appliances whilst providing ample room for both dining and additional seating areas.
Sliding patio doors, together with rear and side-facing windows, flood the room with natural light and provide delightful views across the garden and adjoining fields.
Externally, the property is equally impressive.
To the front is an attractive lawned garden which enhances the bungalow's excellent position on Melbourne Avenue, together with ample driveway parking and access to the garage.
The rear garden is a genuine feature of the property, being large yet relatively easy to maintain and enjoying a desirable south-westerly aspect.
A substantial Indian stone paved patio provides an outstanding space for outdoor dining, entertaining and relaxing, beyond which the garden enjoys a wonderful open outlook across neighbouring fields and farmland.
A pathway extends to the side of the property with secure gated access.
Combining a prime Melbourne Avenue address, substantial single-storey accommodation, beautiful presentation and an exceptional garden with countryside views, opportunities of this nature are rarely available.
Offered with no onward chain, an internal viewing is highly recommended to fully appreciate the quality of the accommodation, the size of the plot and, above all, this outstanding position within one of Dronfield's most desirable residential locations.
