The Dorkings, Great Broughton, Middlesbrough, TS9 7NA

At this rarely available and fine detached bungalow, there is an exciting opportunity to create an exceptional and beautiful home. Against the backdrop of the Cleveland Hills and big skies, this light-filled and roomy bungalow is set within a delightful cul-de-sac location in this stunning and much loved village.  There is the flexibility here for you to decorate and enhance spaces to suit your style, whether traditional or contemporary. You could just move in and update areas or you could complete a programme of transformation by increasing the footprint (subject to necessary permissions and regulations) and/or reconfiguring the layout to create a home with spaces designed for the way you live.  

The west facing rear garden, with its secret areas, interesting borders, trees and summerhouse, is perfect for the keen gardener. Equally it could be a low-maintenance retreat.

This is another fine detached village property from Kathryn Barr Estate Agents that will be suited to retirees, a family or professionals.
