Description


As sought after as it gets in Countesthorpe - a superb opportunity to acquire a well appointed, large two bedroom detached bungalow on the well-renowned Willougby Road, offered to the market with no onward chain.

Nestled neatly back from the road and on a generous plot, this home immediately demands attention with its established frontage. The front garden is mainly laid to lawn with a bush/shrub area, off road parking and an outer-house of which is in-keeping with the homes aesthetic. There is side access as well as access to the larger than average garage via double doors to the left hand side.

Lets go inside - a welcoming hallway branching off to the kitchen, living room, both bedrooms and the shower room.

The kitchen is of a country-style and is in lovely condition, comprising Rangemaster oven, hood, splashback, tiling surround, wall/base units, sink/drainer with tap, larder space, an array of pull-out drawers and cupboards, worktop space and tiled flooring with a side door out.

The living room is extremely sizeable and has a bow-window to the front aspect, double doors to the conservatory, and a fireplace focal-point.

The conservatory is a very nice addition, giving a view of the low-maintenance rear garden. It is of brick and UPVC construction with double doors onto the rear garden.

Both bedrooms are to the rear aspect, both very comfortable doubles, with an array of built-in storage to the master.

The shower-room features a shower cubicle with jet-facility, an expensive addition when new. There is also a wash hand basin, WC, heated chrome rail and tiled flooring/surround.

The rear garden is large and low maintenance, with various sun-spots to enjoy in the warmer months. There is a shrub/plant section, shed, green house and double door rear-access. The garden itself is rare to find with any bungalow, and requires very little maintenance, making it perfect for every audience.

The garage is larger than average with a huge loft space above that spans the majority of the house. The loft space is fully usable with boarding, insulation and room to manoeuvre. Subject to planning and a little imagination, this could be so much more.

To view this superb home on Willoughby Road, call Your-Move Blaby today.
