Description

Searching for single storey living and want to be close to all amenities and transport links? Looking for an uncomplicated 'chain-free' purchase? Then this detached bungalow with impressive frontage and wraparound plot, in the heart of the town, should be top of your viewing shortlist!

Occupying an elevated plot, generous in size, there is plenty of off-road parking in two separate locations and a detached timber garage with an electrically operated roller door. The property is gas centrally heated via a combination boiler and double glazed.

Steps lead up to a storm porch entrance and from here the hallway provides central access to all accommodation.

The lounge/dining room on the right is flooded with light throughout the day thanks to its triple apsect windows, including a feature corner window, allowing one to sit at the dining table and watch the world go by, whilst leaving plenty of space for flexible lounge furniture arrangement.

The kitchen is located to the rear of the home and finished in white gloss with contrasting black fitments, work surfaces and dark grey flooring. There is a Range style oven which will stay and space for washing machine, dishwasher and under counter fridge and further appliance. With plenty of work space and a kitchen sink positioned directly beneath the rear window overlooking the garden. A wall mounted combination boiler can be found adjacent to the entrance door leading to the rear.

The hallway provides access to three double bedrooms and the family bathroom, a modern white suite with pedestal wash basin, WC and bath with shower over.

Externally the property has a sloping driveway providing access to the timber garage, which is double width inside with single electric roller door, allowing space with which to work around/restore your favourite classic car or utilise as additional storage. There's power and light connected. A separate parking area provides off road parking for a further two cars.

The gardens are a mixture of lawn, shingle and flower beds and borders which wrap around the property, creating many areas of interest - this home is crying out for a gardener to thoughtfully landscape the curtilage for all to enjoy!

Agents Note

It is understood by our seller(s) that approximately 15 years ago subsidence claim was made under the insurance for the property as a result of a collapsed drain. Works were completed by the Insurer's nominated contractors in 2014 and the property was assessed and monitored in accordance with the Insurer's policy thereafter, with a guarantee in place to 2026.

Anti-Money Laundering Regulations

We are obliged under the Government’s Money Laundering Regulations 2019, which require us to confirm the identity of all potential buyers who have had their offer accepted on a property. To do so, we have partnered with Lifetime Legal, a third-party service provider who will reach out to you at an agreed-upon time. They will require the full name(s), date(s) of birth and current address of all buyers - it would be useful for you to have your driving licence and passport ready when receiving this call.
