Shipton is a spacious detached bungalow nestled on nearly half an acre of private grounds, combining ample space and tranquility with significant future enhancement potential. This property, located conveniently close to the village center, offers a rare opportunity for those looking to invest in or personalize their home.
The generous layout includes versatile living areas that are well-suited for families or retirees seeking room to grow. The inviting Entrance Hall leads to an expansive roof space accessible via a retractable ladder, offering extra storage or potential for conversion. The Sitting Room features a woodburning stove and a charming bay window with views of the front garden, flowing into a formal Dining Room ideal for entertaining friends and family.
A double-glazed Conservatory provides additional light-filled space and direct access to both the front and rear gardens—perfect for enjoying the scenic grounds year-round. The property also includes a flexible Snug/Bedroom Four that can be adapted as needed.
The roomy Kitchen comes equipped with dual-aspect windows and a range of base and wall units, complemented by integrated appliances. A traditional oil-fired Stanley range cooker serves as both an attractive centerpiece and heating source. A convenient Utility Room enhances functionality with access to the backyard, alongside a Shower Room.
Three well-sized double bedrooms await on the ground floor, with two featuring fitted wardrobes; the principal bedroom even has its own wash hand basin. The family Bathroom boasts classic fittings including a panelled bath.
Notably, Shipton's substantial loft space holds great promise for conversion into additional living quarters (subject to necessary consents). Coupled with an adjoining Storeroom featuring natural light from two windows, this area significantly enhances the property's overall appeal.
Outside, this home is approached via a shared private driveway serving just three properties, ensuring a secluded feel. Ample parking options lead to a detached Garage/Workshop equipped with power and lighting, along with eaves storage.
Surrounding gardens are beautifully landscaped, showcasing lush lawns, mature trees, vibrant flower beds, and several specimen plants that create an almost park-like atmosphere. An inviting paved terrace allows for outdoor entertaining while providing serene views across the grounds. Additional features include a timber shed and an attractive circular timber-glazed garden pod—ideal for relaxation or creative pursuits.
With solar panels generating approximately £1,400 annually through feed-in tariffs with British Gas and other minor renovation requirements such as addressing insulation concerns in the roof area, Shipton presents not only a comfortable living space but also long-term value gains.
