Description

Situated on a quiet cul-de-sac, this beautifully presented two-bedroom, two-bathroom detached bungalow enjoys a lovely sense of peace and privacy within The Paddocks development.

A mature beech hedge, currently a haven for nesting birds, defines the front boundary, while a block-weave driveway provides off-road parking and leads to a detached single garage with a remote-controlled door, set discreetly towards the rear of the plot.

Inside, the entrance hall sets a welcoming tone, finished with modernised flooring and practical built-in storage, including space for coats and an airing cupboard. A fitted ladder also gives access to the part-boarded loft.

The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated with a range of wall, base and drawer units, complete with a built-in double oven and integrated gas hob. The sink is perfectly positioned to take in views of the rear garden while preparing meals.

Generous in size, the L-shaped sitting and dining room enjoys a dual aspect and features a contemporary wall-mounted log-effect electric fire. Sliding patio doors create an easy flow into the garden, ideal for entertaining or simply enjoying a quiet evening.

The principal bedroom comes with a range of quality free-standing furniture, carefully chosen as part of the home’s modernisation. A second bedroom, served by the family bathroom, also benefits from a stylish selection of built-in furniture.

Outside, the rear garden is securely enclosed, with gated access to both sides. Mainly laid to lawn with a paved patio, it offers the perfect spot to relax and enjoy the surroundings.
