DESCRIPTION

Occupying a sought-after position on the edge of the village of Uffington, Little Paddocks is a deceptively spacious four-bedroom detached bungalow set within attractive wrap around gardens. Offering generous reception space and a versatile single-storey layout, the property enjoys a wonderful sense of privacy, complemented by a gated driveway, ample parking, a garage and stables.

The welcoming entrance begins with a spacious porch, leading into a bright central hallway where windows frame views across the garden and fill the space with natural light. From here, a door opens directly onto the rear dining terrace, creating an effortless connection between the house and outdoors.

A generous sitting room enjoys an expansive front-facing window that floods the space with daylight. An open fireplace with a timber surround provides an attractive focal point, creating a warm and inviting atmosphere. An archway leads through to a dedicated study, complete with built-in shelving, a fitted desk and a charming window seat overlooking the front, offering an ideal space for home working or quiet reading.

At the heart of the home lies the impressive family and dining room, a superb space for both everyday living and entertaining. Wooden flooring runs throughout, while a characterful log burner creates a cosy focal point. Two sets of French doors open directly onto the terrace, filling the room with natural light and creating a seamless connection to the garden, while a third set of French doors opens to the front of the property.

The adjoining country-style kitchen is well-appointed with extensive cabinetry and integrated appliances, offering excellent storage and preparation space. Positioned beneath a window overlooking the gardens, the sink enjoys picturesque views, while an adjoining pantry provides further practical storage with fitted shelving.

Further enhancing the versatility of the home, a separate breakfast room offers a range of potential uses as a home office, studio or creative space. Sliding doors open directly onto the terrace, creating a pleasant setting from which to enjoy the surrounding gardens.

A convenient cloakroom, together with a well-equipped utility room featuring additional cabinetry, a sink and plumbing for laundry appliances, adds further practicality, while the adjoining boiler room provides useful additional storage.

The bedroom accommodation is thoughtfully arranged to provide flexibility for families and guests alike. Three well-proportioned double bedrooms each enjoy an abundance of natural light, with two benefiting from useful built-in storage. These rooms are served by a family bathroom, fitted with a shower.

Positioned towards the end of the hallway, the principal bedroom is a light and spacious retreat, complete with fitted wardrobes and a well-appointed ensuite featuring a bath, bidet and wash basin.

OUTSIDE

Little Paddocks is approached via a gated driveway providing ample off-road parking and access to the garage, while a pathway leads directly to the French doors opening into the family room.

The gardens are a true highlight of the property, creating a wonderfully private and tranquil setting that complements the generous accommodation.

To the rear, a spacious dining terrace and courtyard provide an idyllic setting for outdoor entertaining, with French doors opening from the dining room and sliding doors from the breakfast room. A pergola draped with mature grapevine, wisteria and climbing roses provides an attractive focal point. Framed by established planting, the terrace is the perfect place to relax and enjoy the privacy and seclusion of the surrounding gardens.

Steps descend to an expansive lawn bordered by herbaceous planting and interspersed by an array of mature trees, including apple trees and a weeping willow. A picturesque pond enhances the atmosphere, creating a delightful backdrop to the garden throughout the seasons.

The property also benefits from a versatile outbuilding comprising two stables, currently utilised as practical storage space.
