Detached Bungalow
3 1 1
Set back behind the driveway, with space for multiple vehicles thanks to a garage at the end, and further parking for three cars. Mature shrubs and trees provide a soft sense of privacy, while a convenient, covered porch shelters the vibrant red, partially glazed front door, a gentle introduction to what lies inside.
Step inside to a wide and inviting entrance hallway, brightened by natural light and laid with a patterned carpet that adds a gentle touch of character. The layout is practical and easy to navigate, with the living spaces flowing from one to the next, perfect for everyday comfort.
Immediately to the right, the guest WC offers convenience for visiting friends or family. Blue lino flooring meets white tiling and soft blue wallpaper above, a simple, bright space that adds ease to everyday living.
On the left, the lounge offers a generous front-facing, large window that frames the well-kept lawn and allows the light to pour in. Neutral magnolia tones coat the walls, providing a soft and versatile backdrop, while the same patterned carpet continues underfoot for a consistent feel. The heart of the room is a traditional gas fireplace with a decorative surround, a feature to gather around in cooler months, or simply enjoy as a nod to the home’s gentle, timeless style. It’s a space made for quiet mornings with a book, Sunday afternoon films, and everything in between.
From the lounge, step through into the kitchen, where a more contemporary tone establishes itself. Terracotta-toned tiles bring warmth underfoot, grounding the space with a rustic feel. High-gloss grey cabinetry, topped with a natural wooden surface, and finished with sleek silver handles offers ample storage, wrapping right around the room for maximum function. Above, spotlights provide a crisp glow, balancing beautifully with the daylight from the window that looks over the tiered rear garden.
Cooking is catered for with a gas hob, electric oven, and accompanying extractor fan, while space has been left for a dishwasher and a freestanding fridge-freezer. A door at the rear opens directly onto the patio, making this kitchen not just stylish but an opportunity to bring the outdoors in, whether it’s breakfast with the back door open or a summer barbecue in full swing.
Returning to the hallway, two generous storage cupboards make excellent use of space, one housing the boiler, the other providing a handy cloakroom or storage cupboard.
The next room on the left offers flexibility. Currently styled as a second living space, this could equally be a third bedroom, snug, or even a home office. Soft neutral wallpaper pairs with a gentle blue carpet, while the outlook over the rear lawn and views of the hills adds something truly special to this space.
Adjacent is the principal bedroom, where soft laminate flooring and a full suite of fitted wardrobes create a calm and organised space to unwind in. The wardrobes wrap around, incorporating a built-in dressing table, while allowing space on either side of the double bed for bedside tables or additional furniture. This bedroom also overlooks the rear garden, meaning each morning begins with a lovely green view.
Opposite the main bedroom, the bathroom is a bright and functional space, fitted with a bath, overhead shower, and sink. Crisp white tiles to the walls keep it feeling fresh, while the blue floor underfoot adds a playful hint of colour. There’s potential here to enhance further with the addition of a toilet, to transform this into a full family bathroom.
The final bedroom, another double, sits to the front of the home and enjoys plenty of privacy thanks to the maturity of the garden outside. Laminate flooring maintains the easy maintenance and neutral walls offer a clean slate for future décor. Whether as a guest room, craft space, or a quiet place to retreat, it’s another example of how adaptable this home truly is.
Step outside and you’re met with a garden that has been carefully layered to create pockets of joy. Directly out from the kitchen is a paved patio area, ideal for alfresco dining, morning coffee, or simply soaking up the sunshine with a gate leading to the garage for easy accessibility. Step down to another patio level, offering even more room for seating. Directly to the right is a lawned area, a vibrant green space for play, while mature shrubs cover the space, giving a sense of natural seclusion.
