Hoopers Lane, Puncknowle

Detached bungalow in the quiet village of Puncknowle with wonderful far reaching views over the Bride Valley.

The Property - Greenacres is believed to have been built in the 1950’s to take full advantage of its position to the centre of Bride Valley, taking in some wonderful far-reaching views. Its large plot has allowed the property to be enlarged and remodelled to create some beautifully appointed spacious accommodation that can be used in any number of ways. It really is a very polished property indeed!

The property is conventionally arranged with a porch leading through to a central hallway with, to one side, a cloakroom/bathroom and doors through to the main living spaces and bedrooms. The kitchen, that flows through to garden room, is undoubtedly the daytime living hub of the house with a beautifully fitted contemporary kitchen and a dining area to one end overlooking the garden. Integral appliances include an induction hob and an electric double oven with warming tray with space for a fridge/freezer and a dishwasher. The best of the views can be enjoyed from the garden room with double doors onto the gardens to one side, while to the other side of the kitchen is the sitting room. The sitting room has a focal point of an open fireplace and a second set of double doors onto the garden. On the ground floor there are two bedrooms, one of which is used currently as a formal dining room. On the left hand side of the property is a useful utility room that has an array of cupboards including an airing cupboard with a door to the garden to one end and a door to the front drive to the other.

Upstairs there are two further bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room. The property is in immaculate decorative order throughout, has oil fired central heating, UPVC double glazing and a pressurised hot water system while continuity is maintained throughout much of the ground floor with the use of some lovely Karndean flooring and oak doors.

Outside - To the front of the property, double gates that are flanked by rendered walls lead through to a substantial area of parking and turning for a number of cars, which is laid to stone chippings and edged by mature herbaceous and shrub planting. To the right hand side of the property, double gates lead through to a second area of parking besides which there is a garage and a greenhouse. Running along the rear of the property there is a substantial paved terrace with steps up to the main body of the garden that is for the most part laid to lawn and enclosed by mature hedge and timber fencing.
