Description

Situated at the head of a quiet cul-de-sac, with direct and private access onto Baildon Moor and the adjacent golf course, this exceptionally well-positioned true bungalow occupies a highly desirable elevated setting at the top of Baildon. Offering considerable potential, the property sits on a generous corner plot with gardens to three sides, private driveway, and a detached single garage, making it an ideal opportunity for someone seeking a project to create a bespoke, high-specification home.

The bungalow, while well-maintained, would benefit from a comprehensive refurbishment, offering the scope for modernisation and possible extension, subject to the necessary planning consent. The internal accommodation is well-laid out and versatile. Entry is via a spacious UPVC conservatory, which provides far-reaching views over the surrounding moorland, creating a light and welcoming entrance space. From here, a large inner hall offers access to all principal rooms.

The formal lounge is a particular feature, with a dual aspect, gas fire, and a bay window that overlooks the gardens and moorland beyond, offering a private outlook. Adjacent is a second reception room, providing flexible living space, which leads through to the kitchen. The kitchen includes a UPVC door opening directly onto the garden, facilitating ease of access and potential for indoor-outdoor living.

The property also offers two generously proportioned double bedrooms and a house bathroom, complete with a three-piece suite and shower over the bath.

Externally, the gardens wrap around three sides of the property and are predominantly laid to lawn, complemented by mature shrubbery, established planters, and a pond, providing both privacy and a sense of space. The extensive driveway provides ample off-road parking and access to the detached single garage.

Located in a desirable area of Baildon, this bungalow offers a well-proportioned home with scope for refurbishment, set on a generous plot with direct access to Baildon Moor and the golf course. 

Properties with this particular setting rarely come to the open market and an early internal inspection is highly recommended. 

According to Ofcom, the property is served by both standard and ultrafast broadband, with speeds of up to 1800Mbps download and 220Mbps upload available (subject to provider and subscription).

Offered For Sale with no onward chain.

The property is fully serviced by gas central heating, double glazing and mains connected utilities.

Note: Access to the moor is via a picket gate with private access rights payable to Bradford Metropolitan District Council charged at £1.00 (one pound) per annum.
