Set on a large plot in the sought-after Kingsmeadow development, this extended Californian-style detached bungalow offers single‑level living across approximately 1,738 sq ft. The house provides four double bedrooms (all with built-in wardrobes), three reception rooms and a master wet room, giving genuine flexibility for families, home working or long-stay guests. A private, well-screened rear garden and a remote-controlled garage complete the practical outside space, with extensive block‑paved parking to the front.
The property is presented in a traditional, lived-in condition with original period detailing and carpeting in places. The EPC is currently C and the home dates from the late 1960s/early 1970s, so buyers should expect opportunities — and some costs — to modernise heating controls, insulation and finishes to contemporary tastes. Double glazing is installed but the date of installation is unknown, so replacement windows may be a future consideration.
Practical positives include freehold tenure, no onward chain, mains gas boiler and radiators, Thames Water supply and a low local crime rate in a very affluent area. There is no flooding risk and local primary and secondary schools rated Good are within easy reach. Overall, this is a rare, roomy single‑storey home in a quiet residential setting that will suit families and downsizers seeking space and scope to personalise.
Material drawbacks: the bungalow retains an older decorative scheme and some traditional fittings that will require updating for a fully contemporary finish. Buyers should budget for possible improvements to energy efficiency (windows, insulation) and modernisation of kitchens/bathrooms if desired. Mobile and broadband coverage are strong locally but should be checked against individual provider needs.
