This two double bedroom semi-detached bungalow is offered with no upward chain and occupies a generous plot within a highly sought after residential area. The accommodation has been well maintained but will require cosmetic modernisation and refurbishment throughout. However, with the plot offering potential to extend both to side and rear, subject to local planning, this is an exciting project for anyone looking to add significant value to a property or any buyer who simply wants to make the home their own. The bungalow is conveniently located for a plethora of local amenities and is close to a regularly serviced bus route.
The accommodation includes an 'L' shaped entrance hall with doors off to all rooms. The bungalow is configured with both bedrooms situated toward to the front of the home and the kitchen and lounge overlooking the rear garden. This means if a buyer wanted to add a conservatory or garden room access would be via one of these two rooms rather than having to compromise a bedroom.
The lounge is a light and spacious room largely due to a set of sliding patio doors open to the South facing garden. A feature ceramic tiled fireplace gives the space a further focal point.
The kitchen is a good size with the capacity to accommodate a table and chairs. Although many buyers may look to refit the kitchen in future it is still very much serves a purpose. There is a range of base and wall mounted fitted units with roll-edge work surfaces and a stainless steel sink drainer. There is ample space for all necessary appliances including a cooker, fridge and freezer, as well as plumbing for a washing machine. The kitchen is a dual aspect room with windows to both rear and side elevations and a back door provides alternate access to the garden.
As previously mentioned, the two bedrooms are toward the front of the bungalow. Both are good size double rooms. Either could be preferred as the principal bedroom but the slightly larger of the two has a bay window to the front. The second bedroom, however, benefits from a wall of fitted wardrobe space.
Finally, there is a bathroom, which is large enough to house a four piece bathroom suite comprising a corner shower cubicle, bath, low flush WC and pedestal wash hand basin.
To the front of the bungalow the is a low walled front garden which enhances the kerb appeal. Adjacent to the garden is a paved driveway which provides ample off-road parking and offers direct car access to the detached garage. A pre-fabricated construction, the garage, could be compromised in order to extend, however, it offers useful storage space and room for a small vehicle.
The rear garden is a good size and will initially need a little taming. However, it could be a delightful space, once manicured. Currently there is a raised patio seating area with shallow steps dropping down to an area of lawn. The garden is flanked by planted borders that provide privacy.
There is no doubt that this already charming bungalow has huge scope to be improved and made into a fantastic home. Internal viewing is highly recommended to truly appreciate its full potential.
