If you are looking for a home with versatile living, then this could be for you. If you fancy a new home with a little potential, then this could also be for you. But if you are after a family home that is quirky and has potential to extend whilst taking full advantage of the side plot/garden, then this home is definitely for you!
Located at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, with very little passing traffic sits a wonderful Chalet Style Bungalow that has to be viewed to appreciate the layout and adaptability of the accommodation on offer. Originally built with Two double bedrooms and a W/C up-stairs, the property saw development on the ground floor creating a third, single bedroom, that has the possibility of having a further extension over, creating what could be a superb Master Bedroom with En-suite facility. There is also an appetising side plot/garden that could be used as it is. Or, perhaps there is real scope here to feed the imagination by way of extensions, garages and garden cabins! So yes, the property has a fantastic homely atmosphere that needs exploring to fully comprehend the layout....but there is also something here to trip the imagination switch!
You enter the property via the Reception Hallway, which gives you access to the open plan Sitting Room, light and bright with the additional benefit of having a cast iron stove fitted. To the side is a Study, which due to it's size could also be used as a further bedroom or hobby room. The Family Bathroom is spacious and just built for relaxing in the double ended bath, but also has the speedy convenience of a good sized corner shower cubicle! Addition fittings include a re-fitted wash hand basin and high cistern W/C. Also off the hallway, is the third (single) bedroom.
The inner lobby has stairs leading to the first floor, a store cupboard and a door opening to the Utility Room as well as access to the Kitchen/Breakfast Room. This room has been re-designed with a country cottage feel to the units and has all modern conveniences that includes a 5 ring stainless steel oven, space for white goods and a central island with incorporating a one and a quarter bowl sink unit. You can exit the home here via a side door or you can step down to the Family Room. Together with the kitchen, this could really be the "hub of the home" and superb living area with double doors that open giving access to the patio area and sun terrace.
The first floor has a landing with a linen cupboard and a W/C. There are also Two Double Bedrooms, both are spacious and one has a built in cupboard.
Externally, there are three main sections to the rear and side gardens. The Patio Area/Sun Terrace is located directly behind the Family Room. A quiet spot, ideal for a glass of wine and conveniently placed for the Kitchen. Steps down lead to a further low maintenance pebbled seating area. More secluded and screened by high flowering shrubs/bushes, there is also a timber shed that has cunningly been adapted with a rear door, opening to a "secret" storage area. The choice of two paths will lead you to the side garden. Enclosed by fencing with an array of flowering shrubs to the boarders. There is a commanding Willow Tree with a split level lawn area. Timber gates open to the driveway at the front, but this area could really be quite different. There is a handy store/work room here (fitted with power, heating, light and insulation), but it wouldn't take much to realise that a garage, Summer House/Cabin or even an additional extension of sorts could transform this area completely!
The approach from the road is via a re-laid path with a garden to the side. The driveway has also been improved providing Off Road Parking.
In general, this is a comfortable home with a relaxing atmosphere. The ground floor needs exploring and offers far more than initially anticipated with its rooms and recesses. The first floor has the possibility of seeing an extension that could transform the whole house. Whilst the garden, arranged on split levels offer something a little different. And that is this home......affectionately, a little different.
Disclaimer: The potential to extend the property or into the side plot would of course be subject to all legal agreements.
