Description
This detached bungalow occupies an enviably peaceful location as the penultimate property on a no through lane. Sitting in the centre of its own quarter acre plot, which faces South West and adjoins open countryside to the rear, it dates from the 1970s. The current owner reconfigured the property from 3 bedrooms to 2, in order to create open plan living to the rear to take full advantage of the superb outlook.
A large reception hall welcomes you, off which are the principal rooms. The dual aspect sitting room, with open fire in a brick surround, leads through patio doors to the conservatory. Beyond the sitting room is the principal bedroom, a double with large ensuite shower room. This bedroom also has doors to the rear garden. At the rear of the property is an open plan kitchen/dining room/family room. The kitchen has a number of fitted units, double electric oven and gas hob, as well as plumbing for washing machine. A large seating and dining area, together with patio doors to the terrace. A further double bedroom, with bay window, is served by a 4 piece family bathroom.
The outside space is a real feature with gardens extending to just over 1/4 of an acre. To the front is a large tarmac drive with parking for numerous vehicles. A detached double garage, with electronically operated up and over door has power and light supply. Paths lead round either side of the property to the rear gardens. A sun terrace adjoins the property and leads to a gently sloping lawn, which is interspersed and bordered by a number of attractive and colourful shrub beds and hedges.
Overall, this represents an excellent opportunity to acquire a peacefully positioned property in a large plot with a superb outlook. there is also obvious potential to refresh and reconfigure the accommodation, as well as enlarge, if required, subject to planning.
