Description

This superb two-bedroom true bungalow is approached via an extensive tarmac driveway, which runs alongside a well-tended lawn garden with established borders. The driveway extends to a attached single garage, offering secure parking for a small vehicle or valuable additional storage.

Stepping through the front door, you enter an enclosed porch featuring a fitted storage cupboard, perfect for coats and shoes. A door leads into the main reception room, a generously sized lounge/diner with lovely views over the front garden. To one side, a slate display and TV stand provide space for an electric fire, adding to the room’s charm.

A door from the lounge opens into an inner hall, where you’ll find access to two bedrooms, a shower room, and the kitchen, as well as a hatch leading to the loft. The kitchen is well-equipped with solid wood storage cupboards and a contrasting three-sided worktop, offering ample preparation space. A single drainer sink with a mixer tap and a four-ring gas hob are fitted within the worktop, while an integrated electric oven/grill, space for a slimline fridge freezer, and plumbing for a washing machine complete the setup.

The master bedroom is a spacious double, featuring built-in wardrobes, drawers, overhead storage, and a vanity dressing area. The second bedroom is a versatile space, suitable as a small double or a large single, with room for freestanding furniture. The shower room includes an enclosed shower with a wall-mounted unit, a WC, and a pedestal basin.

To the rear, a paved seating area with a raised planted bed offers the perfect spot to take in picturesque views of Benson Knott, Whinfell, and The Helm. Stone steps from the patio lead up to a terraced lawn garden, with a hard standing suitable for a greenhouse or timber shed.
