An opportunity to purchase an interesting, individual chalet style bungalow occupying a pleasant, established plot, which is within walking distance of the heart of this well regarded Vale of Belvoir village.
The property offers a versatile level of accommodation the predominance of which lies to the ground floor, extending to around 950 sq.ft. and comprising breakfast kitchen, a generous open plan L shaped sitting/dining room, three ground floor bedrooms, bathroom and separate cloak room all leading off a central hallway, This area provides a good sized single storey home perfect for downsizers but does have the addition of two further rooms situated in the eaves which have previously been utilised as bedrooms but do have limited head room making them excellent ancillary rooms for storage or possible study space.
