DESCRIPTION
This well-rounded and adaptable detached bungalow is offered to the market for the first time in several decades, with no onward chain. The accommodation is bright and well-proportioned, with a number of dual-aspect rooms, and includes an extended principal bedroom which affords particularly generous space. Thorough modernisation is now required, whilst there is considerable scope for extension - either outwards or upwards - remodelling or reconfiguration, subject to any necessary consents or approvals. The property enjoys an attractive outlook to the front, with south-westerly views towards surrounding countryside. Externally, the bungalow is complemented by low-maintenance gardens to both the front and rear, together with a driveway and a detached garage/workshop. Overall, this is a very appealing opportunity to acquire a comfortable home in a highly regarded location, with excellent potential to enhance and add value.

The bungalow is accessed at the front beneath a covered entrance porch into a central reception hallway, from where the accommodation is comprised as follows: a bright, dual-aspect sitting room with a large picture window enjoying views towards surrounding countryside; a separate dining room overlooking the rear garden; the adjacent kitchen, which is fitted with a good range of units beneath roll-edge work surfaces incorporating a 1.5-bowl stainless steel sink and drainer, integrated AEG dishwasher, integrated electric oven and four-ring hob, with space for a fridge and electric cooker; the extended principal bedroom, which is a very good-sized, dual-aspect room with fitted wardrobes and an en-suite washroom; a second double bedroom enjoying south-westerly views to the front; a third bedroom with built-in wardrobe and drawer unit, and; the family bathroom, fitted with a traditional three-piece suite.

OUTSIDE

Both the front and rear gardens are arranged in a low-maintenance fashion with paved and gravelled terraces, formerly utilised for fruit and vegetables, planted with a comprehensive range of shrubbery and flowering plants, including azaleas and camellias.
