Immaculate, Light-Filled Bungalow in a Peaceful Village Setting

Tucked away in a sought-after cul-de-sac just a short stroll from the heart of the village and its countryside walks, this beautifully renovated detached bungalow is a rare find. Completely refurbished within the last year, the property offers the comfort, style, and freshness of a new home—without the wait.

Step inside and you'll instantly notice the new flooring throughout, which complements the home’s bright, well planned layout. The spacious interior features two double bedrooms, including a principal bedroom with an en-suite wet room with a power shower, and a stylish, contemporary main bathroom. At the heart of the home is a warm and welcoming sitting room, where a wood-burning stove on a bespoke Portland limestone hearth sets the tone for cosy evenings. The adjoining study area makes for an ideal reading nook or home office.

The kitchen and dining room are seamlessly connected by a charming arched opening, allowing the chef to stay in the conversation while preparing meals. The kitchen includes ample cupboard space, room for appliances, and a dual-fuel range cooker to inspire culinary creativity. To the rear, the solid-roofed garden room creates a comfortable space for relaxing in all seasons, with lovely views over the large, sunny, and private garden—a true blank canvas for gardening, entertaining, or simply unwinding. There’s even an established vegetable patch for those with green fingers.

With off-road parking for three vehicles, stylish upgrades throughout, and nothing left to do but move in, this home is the perfect blend of village charm and modern comfort.

A turnkey retreat where all that’s left is to unpack and enjoy.
