About
Occupying a generous plot on one of Hellesdon's most established and desirable residential roads, this attractive semi-detached chalet bungalow presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home that combines immediate comfort with exceptional scope for enhancement.
Originally constructed in the 1950s and subsequently converted to provide chalet-style accommodation, the property has remained in the ownership of the same family since new, a testament to both its practicality and enduring appeal.
Lovingly maintained throughout, the property offers beautifully balanced and versatile accommodation extending to approximately 1,200 sq.
ft., whilst presenting an exciting opportunity for a new owner to modernise and create a truly exceptional long-term home.
A particular highlight is the impressive open-plan sitting and dining room, extending from the front to the rear of the property.
Exceptionally generous for a home of this style, the space is flooded with natural light and offers excellent proportions for both relaxed family living and entertaining.
It is a reception room rarely found in comparable chalet bungalows and undoubtedly forms the heart of the home.
The ground floor also comprises a well-proportioned kitchen and a versatile double bedroom, offering flexibility as guest accommodation, a home office, playroom or an additional reception room depending on individual requirements.
To the first floor, the accommodation continues to impress.
The principal bedroom is of exceptional proportions, spanning almost the full depth of the property and offering a footprint comparable to two conventional double bedrooms, creating an outstanding principal suite with excellent potential for fitted storage or the addition of an en-suite, subject to any necessary consents.
A further generous double bedroom and a family bathroom complete the first-floor accommodation. Externally, the property occupies a particularly impressive plot.
A long brickweave driveway provides extensive off-road parking and leads to a tandem-length carport, while the mature front garden creates an attractive approach and sets the property well back from the road.
To the rear, the beautifully established garden extends to approximately 75ft, enjoying an excellent degree of privacy with mature planting, generous lawned areas and ample space for outdoor entertaining and family enjoyment.
The size and configuration of the plot provide exciting potential to extend or remodel the existing accommodation, subject to the necessary planning permissions and building regulations, offering purchasers the opportunity to significantly enhance both the living space and future value of the property.
Offered with no onward chain, this is an increasingly rare opportunity to acquire a distinctive and well-proportioned home, combining exceptional room sizes, a substantial private plot and outstanding potential within one of Hellesdon's most sought-after residential locations.
Location Situated within one of Hellesdon's most established residential roads, the property enjoys a peaceful setting whilst remaining exceptionally well connected.
