About
Guide price £225,000 - £250,000 Situated in the popular village of Washingborough, this detached three-bedroom bungalow offers an exciting opportunity for buyers looking to modernise and create a home tailored to their own requirements.
Approached via a generous frontage, the property benefits from a large driveway providing ample off-road parking and leading to the attached single garage.
There is also a substantial stone-fronted area to the side of the driveway which offers plenty of scope for landscaping, planting or creating an enhanced garden frontage.
Inside, the property is arranged around a welcoming entrance hall, providing access to the principal areas of the home.
There are two good-sized double bedrooms, together with a third bedroom which would suit a single bedroom, study or occasional bedroom depending on the purchaser's requirements.
The bungalow also provides a family bathroom together with a separate WC, while the main living accommodation comprises a large front-facing lounge and an additional dining room.
One of the property's particularly attractive features is the potential to reconfigure the existing layout.
The dining area could provide an opportunity to create a larger, more open-plan kitchen and living space, while the attached garage offers further potential for incorporation into the accommodation, subject to any necessary planning and building regulation approvals.
The property is structurally sound but would benefit from a programme of updating and modernisation.
The accommodation provides an excellent blank canvas for someone looking to replace the existing kitchen and bathroom, renew floor coverings and introduce their own style and specification throughout.
Outside, the rear garden is a particularly appealing feature. The garden is private and not overlooked, with a good-sized lawn, mature hedging to the rear and fencing to both sides.
An established apple tree adds character, while the garden remains manageable in size.
A pathway runs along the side of the property, providing access between the front and rear, with additional access along the opposite side.
With its detached bungalow layout, three bedrooms, generous parking, attached garage, private garden and considerable scope for improvement, this property represents an excellent opportunity for buyers seeking a bungalow in a well-established and highly regarded village location.
