A substantial, significantly extended, semi detached bungalow, tucked back from the road within a generous 0.25 acre plot, with a large workshop and off road parking. The property has three double bedrooms, an en-suite and dressing room, a modern kitchen, and a bright, dual aspect sitting room. The property also benefits from an efficient B rated EPC making it economical to run.
Set away from passing traffic, but with off road parking and the potential to provide a driveway from the roadside to the garden, the property enjoys a high degree of privacy and a quiet, tucked away location. The accommodation is bright, spacious, and well planned with nicely proportioned rooms.
Approached over a pedestrian path, the front door opens to a small porch, beyond which is a welcoming entrance hall. The sitting room is a very good size and is dual aspect with a conservatory to the side and doors out to the garden. The room has plenty of space for dining and study areas, and there is a cosy sitting area set around the log burner. The adjacent kitchen is fitted with a range of cabinets set above and below the working surfaces, there is a built in double oven and microwave, a hob with extractor over, an integrated dishwasher, and space for a washing machine and dryer. A back door gives direct access to the gardens.
The property has three good double bedrooms. The main bedroom overlooks the front garden and has a dressing room and an ensuite fitted with a shower, w.c., and hand basin. The second double is dual aspect and has fitted wardrobes and a cloakroom with a w.c., bidet, and hand basin, and there is a third double again with fitted wardrobes. The family bathroom is fitted with a bath, w.c., and a hand basin.
Outside there are mature gardens to the front, side, and rear. The garden enjoys a good degree of privacy and is laid to lawn with mature shrub borders and trees. There is a patio adjacent to the building, a large workshop, and a shed. A wide strip of land leads down to the roadside where there is off road parking. This strip could easily be hard landscaped to provide a driveway into the garden or to give additional parking.
The property is fitted with a 6Kw solar system that provides energy to the property with the surplus returned to the grid on a FIT (feed in tarrif) scheme. The owners receive an income of between £900 - £1000 PA.
Owners perspective: It's been a lovely family home with spacious accommodation and a wonderful garden for entertaining and relaxing in peace and quiet, yet it's very convenient for commuting.
The original part of this building is a Hawksley construction, which has been bricked up. The property is mortgageable.
