Sandhutton Lane, Carlton Miniott, YO7

Set behind electric gates on a generous, fully enclosed plot at the edge of Carlton Miniott, Meldon Lodge is a substantial detached bungalow offering single-storey living in a setting that is hard to replicate. Open fields border the property to the side, the boundary is complete, and the sense of space and privacy is immediate from the moment you turn onto the long tarmac driveway.

Inside, the accommodation is both more extensive and more versatile than many would expect. Good size bedrooms, two en suite shower rooms, a generous sitting room, a bright kitchen and dining room, a snug with French doors to the garden, and a dedicated utility room combine to create a home that works equally well for a family or for those looking to downsize without compromise. At 121.89 square metres across a single floor, the scale is genuine.

Heating is provided by a newly installed air source heat pump, keeping energy costs in check and future-proofing the property against rising fuel bills. The utility room houses the associated water cylinder, and the system runs quietly and efficiently in the background, one less thing to think about.

Outside, the plot continues to impress. A lawned front garden, extensive rear garden, established planting, and a substantial detached brick-built garage with electric roller door and rafter storage all sit within the fenced boundary. Countryside views to the rear complete the picture.
