Description

Nestled in a tranquil countryside location on approximately a third of an acre, this detached bungalow presents a significant renovation opportunity. With expansive fields at the rear and only a short stroll to the scenic River Stour and Holbrook Creek, the location is both peaceful and picturesque. The property has an existing four-bedroom layout, with one room currently utilized as a study, but it also comes with planning permission previously granted to transform it into a five-bedroom detached dwelling, complete with enhanced kitchen and dining spaces along with additional utility provisions. The annex side offers versatile potential, featuring workshop areas and a shower room that is due for modernization. The main accommodation benefits from double glazed windows throughout and oil-fired central heating, ensuring comfort even during colder months. The spacious sitting room overlooks the garden, while the bespoke kitchen/dining area provides ample space for culinary endeavors. The generous off-road parking adds to its appeal, making this property ideal for buyers looking to invest in a home where they can both reside and improve value over time. The external grounds slope gently towards the riverbank, adding to the charm of this rural setting.
