Allithwaite Road, Flookburgh, Grange-Over-Sands, Cumbria, LA11

OVERVIEW

On a generous plot with open countryside to the front, the modest external appearance of this detached bungalow belies the accommodation and potential on offer. The existing footprint is already a good size and there is further scope (subject to planning) to extend into the loft and create an impressive family property if required. The current layout is flexible and perfectly suited to those looking for one level living with three bedrooms, two reception rooms and a conservatory all on offer. The property does require some modernisation, but this is the perfect opportunity to create a long term home to individual tastes. The garden spaces are well planted with the rear being lawned and having seating and entertaining areas. A long driveway provides ample parking and there is a detached single garage. The bungalow is gas centrally heated and UPVC double glazed.
