About this home

Positioned in a sought-after residential setting, this spacious detached bungalow offers the perfect opportunity for buyers looking to secure a well-proportioned home with scope to add value and personalise. With no onward chain, a garage attached to the house, and a private, non-overlooked rear garden, this is a rare find for downsizers, families, or buyers wanting single-level living with future potential.

Stepping into the property, you are welcomed by a central entrance hall providing access to all three bedrooms, creating a practical and well-balanced layout.

To the front, the generous living/dining room offers an excellent entertaining space, flooded with natural light and perfectly positioned for relaxing or hosting guests. Adjacent, the kitchen is well-proportioned and presents a fantastic opportunity to be opened up into the dining area, creating a modern open-plan kitchen/dining/living space – ideal as the true heart of the home.

The property benefits from three well-sized double bedrooms, offering flexibility for family living, guest accommodation, or even a home office. The main bedroom sits to the rear, enjoying a peaceful outlook, while the third bedroom provides direct access through to the conservatory.

To the rear, the conservatory offers an additional versatile living space, perfect for enjoying the garden all year round, whether as a sitting area, dining space, or hobby room.

Externally, the property continues to impress. The rear garden is private and not overlooked, providing a tranquil outdoor setting ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or for those who value privacy.

The attached garage is a standout feature, offering not only storage and parking but also excellent potential for conversion (subject to planning permission). This could easily be transformed into an additional bedroom, home office, or extended living space, a fantastic way to add both space and value.

To the front, there is off-street parking via the driveway, ensuring convenience for homeowners and visitors alike.

With its chain-free position, generous layout, and clear potential to enhance and add value, this detached bungalow is an opportunity not to be missed.
