Description

Nestled in a quiet cul-de-sac in the desirable area of Pakefield, this three-bedroom detached bungalow presents an excellent opportunity for renovation and investment. Held by one family since 1957, the property showcases a blend of classic character elements and the potential for modern updates, making it ideal for those looking to tailor a home to their taste. As you approach the property, you’ll notice its generous setback from the road, offering a sense of privacy enhanced by mature front gardens and substantial off-street parking that leads to a large garage and workshop. The traditional brick exterior sets an inviting tone, hinting at the tranquil atmosphere inside. Upon entering through the practical entrance porch—perfect for storing coats and shoes—you'll find an open-plan sitting and dining area filled with natural light. This space features original arched brickwork and a prominent log burner that serves as a cozy focal point. Flowing seamlessly into the sunroom, this additional living area provides serene views of the garden landscape, complemented by a soothing waterfall and pond. Notably, sections of the sunroom's floor comprise original tiles from St John's Church, adding an intriguing touch of local history. The kitchen is functional and bright, equipped with an eye-level oven, electric hob, and ample cabinetry catering to everyday needs. The main bedroom includes built-in wardrobes along with dressing table space for added convenience. Two additional bedrooms offer versatility; one currently functions as a playroom but could easily be converted into an office or guest room according to your requirements. The wet room features essential amenities such as a low-level WC, handwash basin, towel radiator, and generous shower area—blending practicality with comfort. Outside, the expansive gardens are not only visually appealing but also provide significant potential for enhancement. With established plantings creating a peaceful retreat atmosphere, multiple outbuildings—including a summerhouse and greenhouse—offer further possibilities for use or redevelopment. Additionally, part of the garden could serve as an opportunity for extension or development (subject to planning permission), enabling future owners to maximize their investment in this unique property. This bungalow represents more than just a home; it is a canvas ready for personalization while benefiting from its prime location near Pakefield Beach and local amenities. It’s an enticing prospect for investors or families alike who appreciate both space and opportunity in one package.
