Description

This detached bungalow, nestled in a tranquil cul-de-sac, presents a unique opportunity for renovation and investment. Situated on a generously sized plot, the property enjoys a pleasant wooded backdrop, offering both privacy and potential for enhancement. The layout includes an entrance/utility porch that leads into a spacious hallway with access to the loft, setting the stage for possible expansions (subject to planning permission). The living area features a lounge/diner with large windows that overlook the established garden and allow for ample natural light. This bright space could benefit from modern updates to create an inviting atmosphere for family gatherings or entertaining guests. In terms of functionality, the kitchen comes equipped with essential fixtures and has room for appliances. Both double bedrooms include built-in wardrobes and bay windows, providing comfortable spaces that can be tailored to personal taste. The existing bathroom is currently designed as a shower room but offers opportunities for reconfiguration as desired. Accessed via ladder, the loft holds potential as an additional workspace or storage area, further expanding living space possibilities. Outside, the property boasts a long driveway leading to a detached garage, as well as a private rear garden featuring mature landscaping and patio areas—ideal for outdoor leisure. Conveniently located near local shopping amenities, reputable schools, and nature reserves, this bungalow is well-positioned to benefit from community resources while remaining easily accessible via nearby road links. With no forward chain involved in the sale, this property invites new owners to explore its full potential through thoughtful updates and renovations.
