An opportunity to purchase an individual detached bungalow tucked away on a private driveway shared with a neighbouring dwelling and located on a pleasant secluded corner plot within this well regarded village.
The property offers around 1,500 sq.ft. of internal accommodation, offering a versatile layout with up to three double bedrooms, a spacious dual aspect sitting room and an open plan dining kitchen with useful utility off. In addition there is a three piece bathroom and separate cloak room which would be ideal as a shower room servicing the main bedroom.
The property is likely to require a programme of modernisation and updating and provides a blank canvas for those wishing to place their own mark on a home. Although large enough to accommodate small families the property would probably appeal in the main to those downsizing and looking for a well proportioned single storey home within a pleasant village setting.
As well as the internal accommodation the property occupies a level plot with an excellent level of off road parking to the front and an enclosed garden at the rear.
The property is offered to the market with no upward chain and viewing comes highly recommended to appreciate both the current accommodation and also the potential on offer.
