Description

This substantial home has undergone a programme of updates by the current vendor, with the outstanding works giving a potential buyer the opportunity to put their own mark on the property.

The sun room (fondly known as 'The Beach Hut' by the current vendors) is a wonderful space to sit and enjoy the outlook over the garden, and makes for a fun space to sit all year round, adjacent to this is a snug room.

The kitchen is superb, having a vaulted ceiling, and large central island unit and a range of modern matching wall and base level units, space for appliances, windows overlook the rear and open into the dining room, both creating a wonderful space to eat and entertain.

Stairs from the entrance hallway lead down to the basement/utility area with space for washing machine, tumble drier, room for ironing, with a door leading to the rear of garage, along with a further door from the utility area leading to the under house storage.

From the entrance hall, the corridor leads through to an open office area with window to the front (this could be closed off to create a further bedroom).

The newly fitted shower room has been well designed, housing a double shower, wash hand basin, low level WC and built in storage. There is also a double bedroom at this end of the house with a pleasant outlook to the front of the property.

A corridor leads from the dining area, to another double bedroom, additional utility space/ workshop and the large master bedroom, which benefits from patio doors leading to the rear garden and an en-suite bathroom.

A further double bedroom and a study with en-suite facilities, which could be used also as a bedroom and has its own entrance door to the front of the property.

The property offers flexible accommodation throughout, and could quite easily suit multi generational living or be split into two separate bungalows, or a bungalow with an annexe or letting unit (subject to any necessary planning permissions and consents).
