Description

This substantial detached bungalow is situated in a highly sought-after area on The Ryde, one of Hatfield's most established residential addresses. Offered chain-free, this four-bedroom property presents a rare opportunity to acquire a spacious single-storey home with versatile accommodation, complemented by a private rear garden, driveway, and integral garage. The heart of the home is an impressive dual-aspect L-shaped reception and dining room, which is bathed in natural light and features double doors that open directly onto the rear garden. This generous space allows for distinct sitting and dining areas, making it ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The property also includes a fitted kitchen and four well-proportioned bedrooms, several of which come with built-in wardrobe storage. Additionally, there is a family bathroom, a separate WC, and an extra shower room, providing flexibility for family living, guests, or home working. While the bungalow may require some modernisation in certain areas, its spacious layout and original features, such as parquet flooring in the entrance hall, offer a foundation for sympathetic refurbishment. There is potential to enhance or reconfigure the existing accommodation, subject to necessary planning permissions. Outside, the property boasts an established rear garden with a patio area perfect for outdoor dining and relaxation. The front features a block-paved driveway that provides off-street parking and leads to the garage, which is equipped with lighting, power, and an electric up-and-over door for secure parking and additional storage.
