Corbin & Co are delighted to offer for sale this stylish and individually designed two double bedroom detached bungalow, discreetly tucked away within a highly sought-after cul-de-sac in Northbourne.
Positioned on a particularly wide and attractive road, this beautifully presented home offers a rare combination of generous off-road parking, versatile open-plan living and a sunny south-easterly facing rear garden. The property is ideally placed for those who enjoy the outdoors, with beautiful open countryside and riverside walks along the River Stour within easy walking distance.

Everyday amenities are also close at hand, with local shops in Northbourne and Kinson High Street providing an excellent variety of independent businesses, alongside Costa Coffee, Tesco supermarket and Pelhams leisure centre.

From the moment you arrive, this impressive home makes an excellent first impression. A substantial shingled driveway provides ample off-road parking for several vehicles and would comfortably accommodate a motorhome, caravan or boat. A smart grey block-paved pathway leads to the front entrance, with gated side access providing a convenient route through to the rear garden.

On entering, the welcoming hallway provides access to all principal rooms and benefits from a useful cloaks cupboard, keeping coats and shoes neatly tucked away and allowing the hallway to remain uncluttered.

At the front of the property are two well-proportioned double bedrooms, both enjoying fitted wardrobes. The generous principal bedroom benefits from a beautifully appointed en suite shower room, featuring a low-threshold walk-in shower with rainfall showerhead and additional handheld attachment, wash hand basin with vanity unit and WC.

The stylish family bathroom is equally impressive, featuring a modern L-shaped bath with shower attachment and glass screen, wash hand basin with vanity unit and WC. Both bathrooms are finished with contemporary contrasting tiling and heated stainless-steel towel rails, creating a luxurious and refined feel.

The real heart of the home is the impressive open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which is flooded with natural light from the skylight and large sliding doors overlooking the garden. This flexible and sociable space offers considerable scope for different layouts and lifestyles, whether relaxing, entertaining or enjoying everyday family life.

The contemporary kitchen is finished in high-gloss white with a range of wall and base units, complemented by solid wood butcher-block style work surfaces and coordinating tiled splashbacks. Integrated appliances include an electric oven, gas hob and black metal cooker hood, while a Quartz composite sink with drainer and mixer tap enjoys a pleasant side aspect.

A breakfast bar provides an informal dining area and further enhances the versatility of the room. There are numerous power and television points throughout, allowing the space to be configured to suit individual requirements, while under-unit lighting, inset spotlights and two radiators complete the practical specification.

A useful utility room continues the kitchen's design and provides space beneath the solid wood worktop for a washing machine and tumble dryer, together with space for an upright fridge/freezer. Additional high-gloss wall units and the wall-mounted combination boiler complete this highly practical area.

The lounge area is a particularly versatile space, with TV aerial points positioned on both sides of the room, allowing furniture to be arranged according to preference. A radiator and inset spotlights complete the room.

Adding further flexibility is the delightful conservatory, featuring a vaulted roof and a door leading directly onto the garden. This provides an enjoyable additional reception space and an ideal spot from which to appreciate the garden throughout the year, whatever the weather.

Outside, the rear garden enjoys a sunny south-easterly aspect and has been designed for ease of maintenance while still providing an attractive and peaceful outdoor environment. A patio immediately adjoining the property creates the perfect setting for alfresco dining and entertaining, while a further patio positioned towards the far corner provides an excellent spot for enjoying the afternoon and evening sunshine.

The remainder of the garden is predominantly gravelled, creating a low-maintenance finish, while a large timber-built storage shed with power and lighting provides excellent additional storage and could be particularly useful for hobbies, gardening equipment or outdoor belongings.

This individual and beautifully presented detached bungalow offers a superb blend of style, practicality and outdoor space, together with generous parking and an enviable position close to countryside and riverside walks. The property is one that needs to be viewed to be fully appreciated.
