APPROACH
One of the reasons this location is popular is because of its peaceful location in one of the older parts of the village. This bungalow is located at the end of the cul-de-sac on a generous plot, providing a driveway with a front lawned garden, and patio area front of the bedroom bay window to the front of the property, and a further driveway which leads to the additional detached garage on the right hand side of the property, as well as having gates leading into the garden.
LIVING ACCOMMODATION
Welcome inside. Firstly, you are greeted by a handy porch area which is perfect for leaving your shoes, hanging coats and umbrellas. The porch is neutrally decorating with carpets, window into bedroom three/dining room, and internal wooden glazed door into the main hallway.
Once inside the main property, you are welcomed by a spacious hallway which is neutrally presented, bright and airy with contrasting carpets. Once you step inside you will gain the sense of the space that this bungalow offers. The hallway provides a storage cupboard for hanging coats, as well as a separate airing cupboard which is home to the Vaillant boiler and shelves for your towels and linen. There is central heating, ceiling lights, control for the thermostat as well as access into the loft space.
Another great feature to this bungalow is the super-spacious living room positioned at the rear of the property. We love this room as it is perfect for multiple sofas and chairs, excellent when entertaining friends and having family round, whilst boasting a delightful view into the south-facing rear garden via both a bay window and a separate glazed UPVC door to the rear to lead out to the patio and gardens. This room is perfect for the summer months especially when entertaining to open out to the garden. The living room is neutrally presented with carpets, having a feature fireplace with an electric fire set within, as well as central heating and ceiling lighting.
The extended kitchen is a nice size as well, again lovely and bright having windows to the side elevation looking into the extensive garden, and the door leading out to the patio area, perfect for taking the washing out and easy access to the detached garage /side driveway when bringing the shopping in. The kitchen offers a good complement of white wall and base units with contrasting worksurfaces with power points around four small appliances. The kitchen also offers an integrated dishwasher, a four-ring Zanussi gas hob with extractor over as well as a mid height double oven and grill. There is space within the units for a larder style fridge freezer, as well as provisions close to the one and a half sink drainer for a freestanding washing machine. The kitchen also benefits from central heating as well as neutral floor tiles.
BEDROOMS AND SHOWER ROOM
The main bedroom is set to the front of the property featuring a bay window looking into the front garden and cul-de-sac. The bay window also has a useful shelf for your family photos and having central heating radiator placed underneath. This is a neutrally presented bedroom, offering good floor space for your larger bed and the perfect wall for freestanding wardrobes and drawers.
The second bedroom is an adaptable space as you will see on your property tour, located at the rear of the property enjoying that stunning south-facing garden view. As a flexible room it would also make for a separate sitting room, particularly with the garden view and sunshine. The conservatory is set to the side of this bedroom via French patio doors. This room is neutrally presented with carpets and central heating, as well as having a ceiling light with feature ceiling rose and coving around the room. A lovely bright room.
The conservatory is set off the second bedroom to the rear and is a lovely peaceful space, having a two side of view of the landscaped garden. This really is a nice little sitting space whether for a morning coffee, or a quiet glass of wine of an evening. The conservatory has French doors leading out to the patio. There is power, lighting and a fan.
Bedroom number three is also a flexible space, working well as a single size bedroom, however some people tend to use the space as a separate dining room or an office / study area. This room is neutrally presented with carpets, having a wood frame window to the front opening into the porch area, as well as central heating and ceiling lighting.
The shower room has been refitted of recent times, offering a modern white suite comprising of a double size step-in shower with mains control, as well as having a glass shower screen, and modern grey splash-back panelling around for ease of cleaning. There’s also a pedestal wash basin with chrome mixer tap, and a WC with dual flush. Again, another bright space enjoying twin, flower-pattern double glazed windows to the side elevation, ceiling light, hard-waring flooring for ease of cleaning and central heating.
OUTSIDE SPACES
Another superb feature of this bungalow, which isn’t clear from the front, is the generous rear south facing garden. Like we mentioned at the top of this description, the location of this bungalow is superb and peaceful, just a nice quiet setting to enjoy.
The garden has been tastefully landscape with several zones around, firstly having a large patio area stretching along the rear of the property and around to the side towards the front gates and garage, and with railway sleepers edging the planting Beds, a low-level fence, and steps leading down to the lawn and separate sitting area. This really is peaceful, again taking advantage of the south facing aspect, and also has a generous lawn, which is perfect for the grandchildren to play and the dog to run freely. There’s also a feature rockery, shed, and detached garage to the front elevation with gated access to the additional driveway.
This is a lovely space to sit quietly and enjoy a cup of tea and a biscuit, or for when having friends and family around and larger gathering.
GARAGES
The property benefits from two garages, firstly an integral garage to the front having traditional opening door access, and a separate detached garage to the opposite side of the property providing front access via traditional doors as well as a door to side with a window to the rear elevation.
