Description
The current owners have carried out a full programme of works throughout the bungalow, stripping the original bungalow back to its bare walls before carrying out a full refurbishment and upgrade, whilst increasing the footprint via a single storey extension and loft conversion.
The quality of finish is superb and must be viewed internally to be fully appreciated. The layout alterations provide versatile living accommodation over two floors, with the first floor enjoying views across fields and countryside.
An open plan living space merges the lounge and dining areas together creating and very light and spacious environment. A simple, but stylish fireplace houses a double-sided wood burner servicing both the dining area and kitchen/breakfast room.
A 23ft modern ‘shaker style’ kitchen/breakfast room fitted with solid wood worktops and breakfast bar comes with integrated wine cooler and dishwasher, range cooker and American style fridge/freezer.
Adjoining the kitchen is a separate utility with door out to rear patio.
A ground floor master bedroom boasts a selection of fitted wardrobes and ensuite shower room fitted with a modern white suite. A second ground floor bedroom is currently used as office space with doors out to the front aspect.
To the first floor are two double bedrooms. The first bedroom has a selection of fitted wardrobes, ensuite shower room and views to the front aspect across fields and countryside.
A further double bedroom with fitted wardrobes completes the first floor accommodation.
Off of the dining area is a modern garden room providing additional living space opening out to the garden.
The property enjoys grounds to all four sides, a large stone chipped driveway with electric gates provides ample off street parking with low level wall and step up to a patio seating area giving access to the main entrance door.
A lawn area situated at the front continues to the side with a wooden gate opening into the side garden. The side garden is mainly laid to lawn which continues around the rear of the property.
A fence and wooden gate opens onto a large private paved seating area that also gives access to the outbuilding.
