Description
** COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS ** ** ATTIC ROOMS, IDEAL FOR STORAGE **
** CONSERVATORY EXTENSION **
We anticipate demand to be high for this spacious three bedroom detached bungalow superbly positioned in the sought-after village of Merrybent which lies to the West of Darlington. The bungalow is nicely set back enjoying a good size front garden, generous driveway, two car ports, two garages and beautifully tended rear garden with pleasant views over adjoining countryside giving a special blend of peace and tranquillity, which is so often sought but, not often found.
The bungalow is in need of some updating which has been reflected within the competitive asking price, with viewings strongly recommended at your earliest opportunity to appreciate what this home has to offer both inside and out. In our opinion, the home would appeal to a variety of buyers and has a huge amount of potential for further extension, subject to the relevant consent.
