Stansbatch, Leominster

Once a signal box for a now disused train line, Railway Bungalow is a newly updated and previously extended two bedroom, detached bungalow, located on the periphery of a well regarded North Herefordshire village and a short drive from the popular market town of Kington. This inviting home sits in grounds of circa one acre, ideal for those looking for a small paddock for livestock/hobby farming or a large garden to start living 'The Good Life' with vegetable and fruit growing and room for a cluster of hens. The property is approached by a private, gated driveway and boasts a very private location.

Introduction - This delightful detached country bungalow has been extended over the years and tastefully refurbished throughout by the current owners. It offers the following internal accommodation: boot room, two bedrooms, shower room, dressing room, cloakroom/laundry room, sitting/dining room, kitchen, sunroom. Externally, it boasts an enclosed paddock, field shelter, a stable/yard area and extensive parking. It also benefits from oil-fired central heating, a recently upgraded hot water cylinder and newly installed uPVC double-glazed windows throughout.

Property Description - Entry begins into a useful boot room, ideal for storing outdoor footwear/coats. The boiler is housed here in a built in cupboard. To the right is an inner hallway that sets the tone from the outset for this attractively styled and nicely decorated home. To the right is a cloakroom/laundry room with housing for a washing machine and tumble dryer, a selection of wall cupboards for storage, WC and hand-basin. Possible provision could be made here for a second shower room if otherwise desired.
Back into the hallway and directly ahead is the first of two bedrooms. Bedroom one is a double. A desk is currently housed here to act as a home office as this room works perfectly for those needing to work from home. Bedroom two is a good sized double with private outlook. A door leads into a large room currently set up with dressing room facilities to include a sink and access to a shower room. The shower room has been recently modernised to create a sleek and contemporary look with large shower cubicle, WC, hand-basin with vanity cupboard and tall, chrome towel rail.
Back into the entrance hall where there are a number of large built in cupboards for additional storage needs we are led into the living quarters of this inviting home. Firstly, we arrive into an impressive, open-plan sitting/dining room. The room is flooded by light due to it having several windows. The vendors have cleverly designated the space into two useable zones. The first being a cosy sitting room that benefits from having a wood-burner for those cooler Winter evenings. Zone two is currently set up with a small dining table and additional seating. The room would house a large table and chairs if otherwise preferred. A sliding door leads into a kitchen which has been recently installed and tastefully styled. Fitted with a comprehensive range of eye and base-level units, incorporating 1.5 bowl sink, wood-effect work surfaces, four-ring electric hob with extractor hood, double oven, pull out bins, integrated dishwasher, fridge/freezer and microwave with additional features to include a ladder-style radiator, wood-effect flooring and a window to the front elevation enjoying views across open farmland and the stables. A perfect spot to wash the dishes while gazing at possible livestock through the window.
Adjoining the kitchen is a sunroom that cleverly connects the kitchen with the sitting/dining room next door and outdoor patio space for times of Summer entertainment. The vendors have placed a breakfast table here as it has a great vantage point across to the pony paddock.
