Description
Set back from the street, the colonnaded porch and front door of the bungalow are approached via the monoblock driveway. The front door opens onto a spacious hallway that runs the entire length and width of the property and gives direct access to all rooms. It is filled with natural light from the large windows on its eastern side and has a full height cupboard and a back door leading to the garage. The east/west axis of the dual aspect sitting room makes it an exceptionally bright space that is further enhanced by a sliding glass door that leads onto the patio and back garden. The dining room can accommodate a large dining table and also opens onto the patio. The handsomely sized kitchen that overlooks the front garden has a plethora of storage units, the majority of which are floor mounted, a consequent corresponding amount of work surfaces and a full complement of integrated appliances. A generous part of the kitchen is devoted to a second dining area. There is a separate utility room, again with an external door, that houses the gas fired boiler, washing machine and drier, as well as having a sink. The cloak room is fitted with a basin and wc.
The comfortable principal bedroom is to the rear of the bungalow and incorporates both a designed dressing room with clothes storage and an en suite shower room with three piece suite. There is a second double bedroom with en suite shower room and a large walk-in wardrobe. and a further double bedroom with a large wardrobe with sliding mirrored doors. The fourth smaller bedroom overlooks the front of the house and has the potential to be used as a study. The naturally lit family bathroom has a four piece suite that includes a sunken bath as well as a separate shower. There is gas fired central heating and double glazing.
There is an attached double garage that provides off street parking in front of it. The delightful surrounding gardens are maintained to very high standards. A flagstone path leads from the front garden to the patio at the side of the bungalow that is also paved and offers a great opportunity for al fresco entertaining. The front garden is lawned with accompanying flower beds and shrubberies, while the lawned area of the rear garden is reached by steps from the patio. Again there are flower beds and shrubberies around the perimeter of the lawn.
