THE PROPERTY:

Don't miss this rare opportunity!

A delightful detached bungalow requiring modernisation. Situated on a generous plot of approximately 0.11 acre it offers tremendous scope for improvement and is available with no onward chain.

The entrance is to the right hand side via a decking ramp. N.B. This ramp is in very poor repair and the property must be approached with great care to avoid injury! A glazed door opens to a spacious entrance hall , with double doors opening into a living room with front aspect and gas fire.

The generously proportioned and long kitchen, whilst in need of updating, presents an exciting opportunity to create a fine kitchen/dining space to suit modern family living. A pleasant sunroom leads to an unusually wide garage which comfortably accommodates a vehicle with ample room to open doors. The garage benefits from the additional feature of an inspection pit, ideal for the car enthusiast.

Two well-proportioned double bedrooms overlook the secluded rear garden, with one enjoying direct access via patio doors. A third single bedroom with fitted wardrobes completes the accommodation, alongside a wet room. The property further benefits from gas central heating served by a modern boiler and sealed unit double glazing.

Approached via a traditional five-bar gate, the front garden offers a generous driveway providing off-road parking and turning space. Secure gated access on both sides leads to the wonderfully private rear garden. This is remarkably private, albeit overgrown, with a sunny southerly aspect. A substantial sectional outbuilding provides valuable additional storage space and could readily be converted into a home office.

This property represents an exceptional opportunity for those looking to create their perfect home and/or add value with the additional benefit of not being ensnared in a long chain. The sellers sole agent will be astonished if this remains on the market for long and wholeheartedly recommends prompt viewing.

We are required by law to conduct anti-money laundering checks on all those selling or buying a property. Whilst we retain responsibility for ensuring checks and any ongoing monitoring are carried out correctly, the initial checks are carried out on our behalf by Lifetime Legal who will contact you once you have agreed to instruct us in your sale or had an offer accepted on a property you wish to buy. The cost of these checks is £75 (incl. VAT), which covers the cost of obtaining relevant data and any manual checks and monitoring which might be required. This fee will need to be paid by you in advance of us publishing your property (in the case of a vendor) or issuing a memorandum of sale (in the case of a buyer), directly to Lifetime Legal, and is non-refundable. We will receive some of the fee taken by Lifetime Legal to compensate for its role in the provision of these checks.
