About
Situated in the sought-after village of Dedham, this spacious detached bungalow is quietly positioned within Princel Mews - a private and well-regarded setting just moments from the heart of the village.
The property offers well-planned, versatile accommodation extending across a generous footprint, with the added benefit of a loft room and integral garage.
The property offers a generous and thoughtfully arranged layout, beginning with a welcoming entrance hall that provides access to the principal reception areas.
The living room is well-proportioned, featuring a central fireplace that adds a focal point and warmth to the space.
Large windows allow for excellent natural light, and glazed double doors open into a bright conservatory / garden room which enjoys views of the garden and adds an additional reception area that can be enjoyed year-round.
The dining room, accessed via both the hallway and living room, offers ample space for entertaining, with glazed doors opening out to a patio area, encouraging a seamless connection between indoor and outdoor living.
The kitchen is well-fitted with a comprehensive range of traditional-style cabinets providing extensive storage and work surfaces.
It benefits from dual-aspect windows and a practical layout that includes space for all necessary appliances.
