Description

This detached bungalow presents an excellent opportunity for those looking to invest in a property with significant potential for enlargement and modernization. Nestled within mature gardens in a desirable village of South Cambridgeshire, this home features three well-sized bedrooms and two adaptable reception rooms, making it ideal for both family life and entertaining. The layout includes a welcoming entrance hall with built-in storage, leading into a bright sitting room equipped with French doors that open to the rear garden. The fireplace adds character, while the open access to the dining area enhances the space for gatherings. The kitchen is functional yet ready for updates, featuring base and wall units along with sufficient space for essential appliances. Each bedroom offers unique dimensions; the primary room is spacious enough to accommodate various layouts, while the second bedroom serves as an ideal guest space.
