Description

This two-bedroom detached bungalow, previously the village post office, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment in the desirable village of Long Marston. Nestled on a substantial plot, the property balances original character with the potential for modern enhancement. The interior boasts spacious living areas that invite customization. Highlights include a generous sitting room and a sizable kitchen-diner that can be reimagined to suit your vision for entertaining or family gatherings. Both double bedrooms offer fitted wardrobes, providing practical storage solutions while maintaining an open-flow layout enhanced by wide hallways. The bathroom is well-appointed with both a separate bath and walk-in shower, along with an additional separate WC, adding to the convenience of daily living. Outside, the property features a neatly maintained front garden and an expansive rear garden primarily laid to lawn. This outdoor space not only serves as a peaceful retreat but also holds substantial potential for development or landscaping projects, subject to obtaining planning permission. A summer house adds extra versatility for use as a hobby area or quiet escape. The presence of a carport and detached garage complements the property’s functionality, while plans are underway for creating exclusive access to a private driveway. Long Marston offers a tranquil rural lifestyle within easy reach of York, making it especially appealing for both families and commuters. The village hosts essential amenities such as Long Marston Church of England Primary School and The Sun Inn pub—both conveniently within walking distance. Excellent transport links via the A64 and A1(M) ensure easy access to larger cities, while nearby villages provide additional shops and services. This bungalow represents not just a home rich in history and charm but also an attractive investment opportunity in one of North Yorkshire's sought-after locations, ready for your personal touch and future enhancements.
