Water Lane, Barnham

SITUATION LOCATION Enjoying a quiet location towards the end of Water Lane, this individual detached bungalow is situated on a large and established plot with gardens extending to approximately 0.23 acre (subject to survey). The bungalow which has remained in the same ownership since it was first built in the early 1960's, is now available to purchase 'chain free.' The bungalow is now in need of updating and modernisation and offers an ideal opportunity to those purchasers seeking a home that can be improved to one's own tastes with plenty of room to extend or adapt, subject to the usual local authority consents.

The large plot is an outstanding feature of this property, which enjoys a high degree of privacy complimented by the mature Beech hedge that screens the property predominantly to the front with further screening and fencing to the other boundaries.

It is quite rare that properties of this style, potential and location come to the market and early viewings are recommended.
