Property Summary

Since we sold this bungalow to the current owners in 2016, it has been transformed both inside and out. Farmland runs alongside a very long garden which includes a matched set of buildings to include a GARDEN STUDIO, WORKSHOP & STORES. The garden is also a joy, south facing and combining well with the well laid out interior.

Property Details

The current owners acquired the property via Harrison Edge in 2016. During their ownership they have transformed the property not just inside but also outside. Internally, the accommodation has been extensively rewired along with smart efficient windows and exterior doors fitted, new kitchen and bathroom installations, new oil fired boiler (sitting outside!) along with floorcoverings, decoration, internal doors and other modifications and improvements. Outside particularly, a marvellous collection of matched outbuildings have been created which for those with hobbies and interests, will be a real boon. What's more, to cap it all, at the far end of the garden, just past the Kitchen Garden area, lies a superb GARDEN STUDIO with two internal spaces and its own small woodburning stove.

Being south facing, the previous owner installed photovoltaic panels to the rear roofline taking advantage of the orientation.

Entrance Hall
An outer glazed multi-point locking door with glazed side panel opens to a welcoming central hall. A laminate floor leads through and turns into the INNER HALL. Together the two areas provide built-in cupboard plus airing cupboard (with hot water storage tank), and access to loft space. Single radiator. Coved ceiling. White panelled internal doors lead off.

Lounge 4.72m x 3.7m
From the hallway the lounge sits at the rear of the bungalow taking advantage of the southerly aspect and outlook to the gardens and terrace. To one side sits a 8Kw wood burning stove, installed by the current owners and providing a focal point to the room. A glazed outer door and side panel provides access to the rear and good natural light along with matching window alongside. An archway connects this space with the adjacent Dining Room. 4 wall light points.

Dining Room 3.68m x 2.7m
Together the two rooms combine to an overall length of 24'11. Originally, this dining room was a third bedroom when the bungalow was first built and was accessible directly from the hallway. The original door from the hall was in situ when the current owners purchased the property via Harrison Edge in 2016 and therefore could in theory be reinstated if required. A further window provides an outlook to the garden and terrace at the rear. 2 wall light points. Double radiator with thermostatic valve. Wiring for two wall mounted stereo speakers (speakers not included).

Kitchen 3.5m x 3.18m

To finish the effect, a central matching small island unit provides a further surface space and storage. A window above the sink provides an outlook to the deep, well planted front garden. A glazed door leads off to the useful side Porch/Utility.

Side Porch/Utility 2.8m x 1.68m
Laid with a quarry tiled floor and constructed with a blockwork lower section off which a double glazed PVCu frame sits complete with glazed roof and outer door.
