Approached via a private driveway providing parking for up to four vehicles, the property immediately presents an attractive first impression. The smart pebble-dashed façade is complemented by a gravelled frontage, offering additional parking and low-maintenance appeal, whilst also providing the opportunity for a future owner to create further landscaped garden space if desired.

The kitchen is both stylish and functional, fitted with a range of sleek white wall and base units complemented by marble-effect laminate work surfaces and contemporary metro tiling. An induction hob with extractor above, integrated under-counter fridge, plentiful storage and a useful breakfast bar create a practical space for everyday living, whilst a side door provides direct access to the driveway and garden beyond.

The spacious lounge enjoys a delightful north-west facing aspect, with a handsome curved bay window and deep window seat drawing natural light into the room. This generous reception space provides ample room for both relaxation and entertaining, centred around a contemporary electric fire set within an attractive surround, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere.

The bungalow offers two well-proportioned bedrooms. The principal bedroom overlooks the rear garden and enjoys a peaceful south-east facing aspect, creating a bright and tranquil retreat with ample space for bedroom furniture. The second bedroom offers versatility and could equally serve as a guest room, home office or hobby room depending on individual requirements.

The shower room has been thoughtfully adapted with accessibility in mind and features a large walk-in shower with both drench and handheld attachments, a vanity wash hand basin, WC and heated towel rail. For those seeking a more traditional arrangement, there is potential to reconfigure the space back into a family bathroom if desired.

Outside, the rear garden is undoubtedly one of Rose Bank's most appealing features. Benefitting from a sunny south-east orientation, the garden has been designed to provide a delightful outdoor environment for both relaxation and gardening enthusiasts. A generous limestone patio creates the perfect space for al fresco dining, whilst the lawn is framed by mature planting, established hedging and colourful perennial borders. The former footprint of a garden shed remains in place, offering potential for a new workshop, garden store or vegetable growing area.

A substantial detached garage with double doors provides excellent storage, workshop space or secure parking, further enhancing the practicality of the property.

Additional benefits include double glazing throughout, external lighting, a Worcester boiler and a replacement roof installed in 2020, providing reassurance for prospective purchasers.
