An interesting opportunity to purchase an individual detached bungalow of deceptive proportions, occupying an established level plot which extends to approximately 0.28 of an acre or around 1,160 sq.m. with an excellent level of off road parking and established gardens.
This traditional bungalow has been significantly altered over the years, offering an excellent level of versatile single storey accommodation but is ready for a complete program of modernisation and refurbishment. The property provides an excellent blank canvas for somebody to place their own mark on a home and create quite a unique dwelling.
The current accommodation extends to three main reception areas with a kitchen and side lobby off, two bath/shower rooms and potentially three bedrooms and includes potential annexe rooms at the rear encompassing, a kitchen area with reception and bedroom off.
As well as the accommodation the property occupies an attractive, well proportioned plot, particularly by modern standards, set well back from the lane with a sweeping driveway providing a considerable level of off road parking which continues to a garage. The remainder of the frontage is lawn and benefits from a westerly aspect. The rear garden has a southerly side aspect and offers a good degree of privacy.
Overall this would be ideal for purchasers with a higher budget looking to create an individual home to their own taste.
