Description

This detached two-bedroom bungalow presents an interesting opportunity, set at the quiet terminus of a cul-de-sac on an expansive 0.3-acre plot. Its generous land size hints at potential for further development, subject to the necessary planning permissions. Upon entering, you are welcomed by a hallway featuring a UPVC and glazed door, alongside a side window that enhances natural light. The layout flows into a utility room equipped with plumbing for laundry appliances and additional space for a tumble dryer. This utility area is practical and functional, offering modern touches like Perspex cladding. Adjacent is a separate cloakroom fitted with essential amenities. The kitchen includes contemporary base and wall-mounted units complemented by a black marble effect laminate work surface. It's designed to provide ample space for essential appliances such as a freestanding cooker and fridge. A large double-glazed window looks out onto the rear garden, making it bright and inviting. The open-plan lounge and dining area extends from the kitchen, benefitting from the same wood-effect vinyl flooring that runs through much of the property. With windows facing both side and rear, this space feels airy and conducive to comfortable living. Two double bedrooms complete the interior; one featuring a bay window that draws in light from the front, while the other has direct access to the front garden via a UPVC door. Externally, the property includes off-road parking for one vehicle with steps leading up to a lawned front garden. The exterior is primarily laid to lawn with pathways on either side for easy navigation around the home. A private platform area accessible via stone steps offers additional outdoor space that could be enhanced further. The property's significant plot size is particularly noteworthy; much of it can be accessed from Wenallt Road, which opens possibilities for developers or those looking to invest in expanding their footprint. Previous inquiries made by the current vendor have shown promise regarding its development potential, although no formal planning applications have yet been submitted. This bungalow not only serves as a cozy home but also stands as an appealing canvas for renovation or investment, making it worthy of consideration for those looking to unlock its full potential in an attractive location.
