This detached three-bedroom bungalow, constructed in the 1960s, is nestled within the charming village of Herne. It occupies a generous plot that features established landscaping with mature trees and vibrant flowerbeds, providing a tranquil setting for potential owners. The property has been held by the same family since its completion by the notable developers Johnson & Ratford, presenting a unique opportunity for new occupants to modernize and personalize the space to their liking.
The heart of the home is a spacious entrance hall that leads to three comfortable bedrooms, all equipped with fitted wardrobes, alongside a shower room and a separate WC that could be reconfigured into one main family bathroom. The dual-aspect lounge at the rear boasts large French doors that open into an impressive 100 ft garden, creating an inviting interface between indoor and outdoor living. The retro-style kitchen provides ample storage and counter space, perfect for culinary enthusiasts or those looking to update with modern amenities.
An additional feature of this property is the substantial attic space that could offer exciting prospects for conversion into extra living accommodation, subject to obtaining the necessary permissions. This potential adds significant investment value as it allows you to create additional rooms tailored to your needs.
