Detached bungalow with fantastic opportunity for renovation and development

Description

This is a unique opportunity to purchase a spacious detached bungalow located on the outskirts of Haslingfield village, offering a perfect balance of countryside charm and easy access to nearby amenities. Set on a generous plot of approximately 0.35 acres, this property provides fantastic scope for renovation or redevelopment. Surrounded by established gardens, the bungalow offers a peaceful and private setting, while remaining conveniently close to Haslingfield village centre. A notable feature of the property is its extensive loft space, which could be converted (subject to the necessary permissions) to create additional living accommodation, such as extra bedrooms and bathroom.

Inside, the home welcomes you with a spacious hallway that sets the tone for the rest of the property. The living room is bright and airy, benefitting from dual-aspect windows that flood the space with natural light, making it ideal for entertaining or relaxing. At the rear, the separate dining room opens directly onto the garden via sliding doors, offering an effortless connection between indoor and outdoor living. There are three generously sized double bedrooms, all providing comfort and privacy. The main bathroom is well-equipped with a bath, separate shower cubicle, wash basin, and WC, while an additional cloakroom with a WC adds further convenience.

The kitchen is fitted with a range of modern units and includes an electric oven, grill, hob, and extractor fan. Adjacent to the kitchen, the utility room provides additional space for appliances and plumbing for a washing machine, ensuring practical day-to-day use. Additional features include a double garage, which can be accessed through the utility room, complete with power and lighting. The front of the property benefits from a carriage driveway, providing ample parking space for multiple vehicles.

The rear garden is a particular highlight, offering a beautifully landscaped area with mature trees, hedges, and a variety of plants. A paved terrace creates an ideal space for alfresco dining, while two ornamental ponds add a touch of character and tranquility to the setting. There is also an outbuilding, previously used as a summerhouse, which could be easily repurposed as a home office, studio, or garden retreat.
