About
A rarely available three-bedroom detached bungalow, which has been extended at the rear, occupying a lovely cul-de-sac position.
The property was built circa 1971 and has been loved and enjoyed by the current owners since 2018.
You enter through the front door into the entrance hall with useful built in cupboards and doors opening to the principal rooms.
The kitchen is in the middle of the bungalow and benefits from a variety of modern fitted wall and base units with work surfaces over and inset stainless steel sink with drainer.
There is a built-in electric oven and a four-ring hob with hood over. There is also an integrated dishwasher and space for a freestanding fridge freezer.
An opening leads through to the dining room beyond, with a sliding door to the utility room, with a secondary sink, additional cupboards with worktops over and space beneath for a washing machine.
There is an internal door into the garage, side door to the garden and a door to the shower room, with WC & washbasin.
The Owners Love - The owners love the location and “the quiet and peaceful atmosphere, whilst still being only a short distance from town”.
Their favourite thing about the bungalow is “the south facing garden which is a real suntrap and perfect for the summer months”.
They are particularly pleased with “the extended lounge/dining room, which is a great open space and with the large bi-folding doors, they allow the light to really fill the rooms giving it a bright and spacious feel”.
They think that the perfect buyers will be “a couple looking to perhaps downsize to a bungalow but still with good size accommodation and still be within reach of amenities”.
The lounge is situated at the rear of the bungalow and enjoys attractive outlook to the rear garden through a large set of bi-folding doors to the south facing rear aspect, which flood the room with natural light on bright sunny afternoons and offers easy access out to the rear patio area.
The newly extended dining room is beyond here, through a large opening, which enables the layout to flow nicely and incorporates the rooms together into a wonderful entertaining space.
There is a large window to the rear aspect and another set of bi-folding doors onto the patio area.
There are three bedrooms at the front of the bungalow with the two bigger rooms overlooking the front garden, with the master benefitting from a built-in wardrobe as well as the third bedroom.
The bathroom is fully tiled and is fitted with a four-piece suite including bath, WC, washbasin and large walk-in shower, as well as a heated towel rail.
George Loves - “I really love the position of this bungalow! It occupies a great plot in what is a highly desirable location. It just ticks so many boxes that people look for.
It is detached, south facing garden, good size plot, garage/driveway and no onward chain.
This one won’t be around for long!” Outside, to the rear of the property there is a nice size, yet manageable garden laid predominantly to lawn, which enjoys a good degree of privacy.
Initially, there is a large patio area, which leads up to the lawn. The garden is fully enclosed with fenced borders, and useful side gated access either side of the property.
The Owners have created a secluded corner for a pergola and summerhouse. There is a multi-car driveway at the front of the bungalow, leading to the single garage with up and over door.
