An exceptionally spacious detached bungalow set within approximately 1.83 acres of gardens and grounds, including a large barn, stables, yard and paddock. The property offers generous and versatile accommodation comprising five bedrooms, multiple reception areas and the potential to create self-contained accommodation, subject to the necessary consents.
Originally constructed around 1960 of part Woolaway construction, the bungalow has benefited from substantial cavity-built extensions added circa 2010/2011. The well-proportioned layout is thoughtfully designed and configured to provide excellent wheelchair access throughout, making it both practical and adaptable. With five bedrooms, two of which benefit from en-suite facilities, the accommodation offers flexibility and presents an opportunity to divide the property into a main residence and annexe, subject to consent—ideal for multi-generational living or as a substantial family home.
A concrete yard which leads to an impressive modern agricultural barn with adjoining storage/workshop space and stabling. The grounds include large, level gardens and a paddock, providing excellent potential for smallholding or equestrian use. The property enjoys a particularly attractive setting, adjoining open farmland to the rear and bordered by mature woodland to the front, offering privacy and a semi-rural outlook.
Internally, a spacious L-shaped living and dining room is positioned to the front of the property and features an attractive fireplace with open fire. The recently installed and well-presented kitchen is fitted with a comprehensive range of base and wall units with granite work surfaces, a built-in shelved pantry, and a recessed area housing a range-style cooker (available by separate negotiation).
The principal bedroom is a generously proportioned room with two front-facing windows, an en-suite wet room, and its own entrance hallway. This area is considered to offer potential for conversion into a self-contained annexe, subject to the necessary approvals. Bedroom two enjoys an attractive rural aspect to the rear and also benefits from an en-suite. Three further spacious double bedrooms are served by two family bathrooms. A large conservatory provides additional living space with views over the rear gardens.
Overall, this highly versatile property will appeal to purchasers seeking a smallholding, equestrian facilities, or a secluded rural lifestyle with no immediate neighbours. EPC E
