Description
A beautifully presented and impressively spacious 3/4 bedroom detached bungalow, ideally positioned just a short walk from the heart of this highly sought-after village. Offering flexible living accommodation, quality finishes, and an exceptional rear garden, this property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a home that is both stylish and practical in equal measure.
Set behind a generous shingled driveway with sculpted lawn and well-tended flower beds, the property makes an immediate impression. A welcoming entrance porch, with full-length glazed side screens and built-in storage, opens into a light and airy hallway with solid wood flooring and double-door access to the main living areas. From the moment you enter, the sense of space and quality is evident.
The heart of the home is the beautifully designed kitchen, fitted with an extensive range of modern wall and base units, Bosch eye-level double ovens, a 4-ring electric hob with extractor, built-in fridge, and a water softener. Tiled flooring and inset spotlights enhance the finish, while built-in shutters add a touch of elegance. This space flows seamlessly into the open-plan dining area, where French doors lead directly onto the garden, creating the perfect setting for everyday living or entertaining. A stable-style door leads from the dining room into a handy utility room, complete with plumbing, tiled flooring, skylight, and dual access to the front and rear of the property—as well as an integral door to the garage.
The separate living room is a bright and comfortable space featuring an open fireplace with a marble hearth and wooden surround, dual rear windows, and double doors that open into a truly impressive conservatory. Constructed with uPVC and a brick plinth, the conservatory provides a tranquil space to relax, enhanced by a charming wood-burning stove and French doors opening onto the side garden.
There are up to four bedrooms, offering maximum flexibility to suit a variety of lifestyles. Three of the bedrooms are generously sized, with two benefitting from built-in wardrobes. The fourth bedroom is currently used as a study and includes fitted shelving, cupboards, and a built-in desk, along with direct access to the rear garden—ideal for those working from home or looking for guest accommodation.
The property boasts two modern bathrooms, both finished to a high standard. One features a panelled bath with shower over, vanity unit, low-level WC, and fully tiled walls. The second bathroom offers a four-piece suite, including a separate glass shower cubicle, bath, vanity unit, and WC, along with built-in furniture and tasteful tiled finishes.
Externally, the rear garden is a real standout feature. Thoughtfully landscaped across two levels, it offers a generous paved patio, ideal for outdoor dining and entertaining, with steps leading up to a large lawned area bordered by mature shrubs and flower beds. The garden is fully enclosed by timber fencing and hedgerow, providing both privacy and security. There’s also a timber shed for storage, an external oil-fired boiler, and an oil tank discreetly located to the side.
To the front, the property benefits from a substantial driveway offering ample off-road parking, enclosed by a mix of picket and timber fencing. The integral garage is equipped with an electric up-and-over door, power and lighting, and internal access to the utility room—making it a highly practical space.
Additional features include 16 solar panels, which were installed in 2022 and are owned outright, offering excellent energy efficiency and reduced running costs. The property also benefits from uPVC double glazing and oil-fired central heating throughout.
This is a superb detached home that combines generous living space with modern convenience, all set within a desirable village location. Whether you're upsizing, downsizing, or looking for a flexible family home, this property offers a rare combination of quality, space, and versatility.
