Leighton, Welshpool, Powys, SY21

Krista is a fine example of a desirable detached country bungalow, which has been greatly improved and extended by the current owners. This unique and stylish home provides for a 3 bedroom bungalow with one bedroom annex, which is ideally suited for multi generation family living, whilst providing the opportunity for an income source as a private let, Airbnb or holiday rental, subject to obtaining the local authority permissions and consents. There is also scope for the annex to be incorporated into the main residence to provide for further living and bedroom space.

From the Covered Entrance Porch, access leads in to the inviting 'L' Shaped Reception Hall with double built-in cloaks cupboard and the 3 Bedrooms all of which are double in size and feature generous built-in storage. There is a fully tiled Shower Room with mixer shower, vanity wash basin and W.C. To the front of the bungalow is a spacious Sitting Room which has a deep picture window overlooking the gardens and grounds. A step down leads into the adjoining Sun Lounge which has a dual aspect with views over the front and side and French doors leading out to a superb sun terrace. There is a formal Dining Area to the rear which leads into a particularly well appointed Kitchen, fitted with an extensive range of wall and base units, acrylic 1½ bowl sink, integrated double oven and hob and a complimentary dresser unit. Off the Kitchen there is a useful Rear Porch and Cloakroom, complete with the Utility Room housing the oil fired central boiler, which fuels the main bungalow.

The annex accommodation beyond has electric heating and provides for a fully fitted Breakfast Kitchen complete with Shower Room, Lounge and Double Bedroom. The annex flows seamlessly from the main bungalow but is also independently accessed.

The property is approached through a double gated driveway which leads to generous parking and turning space with access to the Detached Double Garage and Workshop with Potting Shed. The gardens beyond are an excellent area for the cultivation of vegetables. Pathways meander the bungalow and annex and lead onto the formal gardens at the side. Adjacent to the Sun Lounge is a spectacular paved terrace which is sheltered by the stylish overhanging eaves and makes for a superb space to dine and entertain al fresco.

Lawned walkways take us through the gardens which are particularly well stocked and pleasantly established with meandering herbaceous borders. The gardens also feature a variety of specimen trees and fruit trees together with a Timber Hobbies Room with power and light connected. To the rear boundary is a stone faced wall to aformer carriageway which is a notable feature. The grounds provide for seasonal colour and interest and are a real haven for birds and wildlife.

NB: The original bungalow is of steel framed construction with the later extension/annex of traditional cavity build.
