Detached bungalow with outbuilding accommodation in mature and landscaped grounds of about 0.85 acres
ACCOMMODATION
This delightful detached bungalow lies on its own in a lovely rural setting. The original part of the property which comprises the north wing is likely to be about 100 years old. It is understood that the original part was renovated and extended around 38 years ago in the mid 1980s. An extension was then added around 30 years ago in 1993. A theme throughout is the use of hard flooring which is extensively Moduleo which is easy to maintain and hard wearing. A welcoming and cosy room is the sitting room with the focal point being a Morso stove set on a tiled hearth within a pointed stone recess. The fireplace is flanked by a window on one side and a recess on the other. An open archway gives way to the dining room which has a lovely garden aspect and wonderful light. From the hallway is a cloakroom with WC and washbasin. Enjoying a garden view is the principal bedroom. Comprehensive wardrobe space is provided along one wall with mirror fronted doors. A modern en suite bathroom has a double end bath and electric over bath shower and the washbasin is set in a contemporary curved unit. There is electric underfloor heating and an opaque window. With an outlook over the front driveway and fields opposite is the dining kitchen which is fitted with a good range of ivory high gloss finish cabinets including a curved end unit. The units are complemented by beech worksurfaces. Appliances include a dishwasher, induction hob, built in microwave and oven, plus extractor hood. With exterior door leading to the rear garden is the utility room with plumbing for an automatic washing machine along with wall units. An inner hall provides good storage space with two built in storage cupboards and a further walk in one. Bedroom two features a Morso stove set on a tiled hearth. Bedroom three has built in wardrobes and a garden view. Bedroom four again has a garden aspect. Built in wardrobes conceal desk furniture for flexibility as home office/study space. These three bedrooms are serviced by a stylish shower room with curved corner shower enclosure with sparkle finish with aqua panel boards.

A spacious driveway with parking for numerous vehicles, leads to the mature and cultivated garden grounds which are rectangular in shape and extend to about 0.85 acres. Significant features of the grounds include a gravel drive flanked on either side by a stone faced wall, a gravel courtyard in front of the property and a lock block drive leading to the double garage. A sheltered circular seating area to the rear is positioned to capture the sun. Well stocked flowerbeds, shaped lawns and a variety of native trees surround the perimeter. Species of tree include holly, Scots pine, rosehip, plum and apple. Located at the front of the property is a pond and external electricity has been used for a hot tub, outdoor heater and light.

At the south eastern corner of the grounds is a stable block which includes two stables and a store room, with a floor area of 40 square metres. It has a concrete floor, brick base walls, timber clad walls above and a pitched roof clad with corrugated onduline sheets.
