Highfields Road, Highfields Caldecote

Set back from the road on a plot of approximately 0.32 acres, this detached four-bedroom bungalow offers a rare combination of lateral space, privacy and established gardens within Highfields Caldecote. The scale of the plot and the breadth of accommodation will appeal to buyers seeking long-term flexibility, whether for family living or single-storey ease without compromise.

The internal layout is notably generous, centred around a well-proportioned living room defined by its vaulted ceiling, exposed beams and a full-height stone chimney with wood-burning stove at its centre. Generous glazing on two aspects, including doors to the garden, brings in consistent natural light and allows for an easy connection to outside space. A separate dining room provides flexibility of use as a formal setting, or additional living space, while the kitchen/breakfast room sits at the rear of the home and works particularly well as an everyday space. As shown, it is arranged with a wide run of fitted cabinetry, providing extensive storage and preparation space, alongside ample room for a full dining table. Dual-aspect windows bring in consistent natural light and give a direct outlook to the garden. The proportions allow for informal family use as well as entertaining, with clear circulation and practical zoning between cooking and dining areas. A utility room sits alongside, helping to keep the main space uncluttered, with additional storage throughout the property.

The bedroom wing is well defined, with four bedrooms arranged off a central hallway, including a principal bedroom with en suite, alongside a family bathroom. The configuration allows for clear separation between living and sleeping areas, and offers scope for adaptation depending on need.

Outside, the plot is a key part of the appeal. The frontage provides ample off-street parking and a sense of arrival, while the rear garden is of a scale rarely found in properties of this type, with established planting, open lawn and space for outdoor dining and recreation. A detached summer house offers useful ancillary space, suitable for hobbies or home working.
